SUMMARY:Webinar - 3/18/21 - Reuniting and Renesting Orphaned Wildlife - NACA/Justice Clearinghouse
DESCRIPTION:Does your agency or organization get calls about birds and squirrels fallen out of nests\, very young raccoons seen without mom\, or fawns and baby rabbits alone in fields or backyards? Whether or not you respond to these types of calls or refer them to a wildlife rehabilitator\, this webinar will help you determine and achieve the best outcome for these animals. (Spoiler alert: many of these baby animals are probably not actually orphaned!) Learn how to know when intervention is necessary\, how to reunite dependent young with their parents whenever possible\, and how to best work with wildlife rehabilitators when reuniting is not possible.\n\nOther Webinars with HSUS: \n\n\nMarch 18: Reuniting Orphaned Wildlife (this webinar)\nMay 18: Animal Cruelty Investigations and the Fourth Amendment\nJune 8: Helping Wild Animals in Distress\nAug 3: Did They Actually Live Happily Ever After? Debunking Translocation Myths\nOct 28: Solving Problems with Cougars and Bears\nNov 11: Preparing for Court: Tips for Effective Testimony about Animal Crimes\n\nOr click here to view and register for other upcoming NACA  webinars on the JCH Platform. \n  \n\n \n  \nThe National Animal Care & Control Association (NACA) was formed in 1978 for the express purpose of assisting its members to perform their duties in a professional manner. We believe only carefully selected and properly trained animal control personnel can correct community problems resulting from irresponsible animal ownership. NACA’s purpose is to preserve the Human/Animal Bond by insisting on responsible animal ownership. \n  \n  \n  \n \nFounded in 1954\, the Humane Society of the United States and its affiliates around the globe fight the big fights to end suffering for all animals. Together with millions of supporters\, the HSUS takes on puppy mills\, factory farms\, trophy hunts\, animal testing and other cruel industries\, and together with its affiliates\, rescues and provides direct care for over 100\,000 animals every year. The HSUS works on reforming corporate policy\, improving and enforcing laws and elevating public awareness on animal issues. \n  \n\nPresenters\nJohn Griffin has 20+ years of field experience ranging from resolving conflict issues with raccoons to protecting great apes. As Senior Director of Urban Wildlife Programs for the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS)\, John oversees field service and policy programs that resolve conflicts with wildlife. John has provided trainings and consultation for animal care and control\, municipal agencies and state agencies. He has led workshops at national\, state and regional conferences\, and has been a speaker at academic and international conferences. John has also worked extensively with the professional wildlife rehabilitation community as well as to reform the commercial wildlife control industry and serves on advisory boards and working groups with those focuses. John is published on a number of topics and was recently a National Geographic Expedition team member exploring raccoon behavior in urban areas. \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://www.justiceclearinghouse.com/webinar/reuniting-and-renesting-orphaned-wildlife/

SUMMARY:Webinar - 3/25/21 - Resource Guarding or Rule Setting - Suzanne Clothier (fee applies)

SUMMARY:Webinar - 3/30/21 - Low-Stress Curbside Service - Fear Free
DESCRIPTION:Many things have changed about how we practice over the past year. Approaching vehicles and taking pets away from their owners presents many new opportunities for creating fear\, anxiety\, and stress in our patients. Leaving pet owners in the car to wait\, without knowing what is happening with their pets\, creates stress and frustration for them as well. \nIn this presentation\, Valarie Tynes\, DVM \, DACVB\, DACAW will provide multiple suggestions for helping the system run more smoothly without sacrificing the emotional health of our patients. The result will be an appointment that runs more efficiently because the patient is more relaxed and a happier\, more satisfied client because they see their pet having a less distressing experience at the veterinary clinic. \nBrought to you by Ceva Animal Health \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_Sl5w2gQZTqGE7Kn4u9lj9w

We are already seeing an increase in dogs displaying more frustration than anxiety when left alone nowadays\, as “pandemic pups” — those adopted during lockdowns — have had little opportunity to be left alone or even just relax in a quiet setting. \nWhile systematic desensitization continues to be the gold standard training method for dogs who are afraid to be alone\, a down-stay DRI is highly effective for dogs who are frustrated and can even be helpful for the fearful pups as well. Join us to brush up on your desensitization training skills as well as learn how to use a DRI down-stay to help more families gain the ability to leave their homes without worrying about their dog. \nLearning Objectives: \n\nUnderstand the different types of separation related problems and how to distinguish them. (i.e anxiety\, frustration\, underlying health issue.)\nPrepare clients to understand how desensitization works so that they are prepared to work at the dog’s pace.\nActively assess the dog’s fear/frustration threshold while beginning to help the dog become more relaxed within the first desensitization session.\nUse down-stay training to aid in a number of ways as needed per each dog: impulse control\, frustration reduction\, increased relaxation\, and habituation to the sights and sounds of a departure.\n\nCEUs: PPAB 1.5\, CCPDT (pending)\, IAABC (pending)\, KPA (pending) \nRegistered for the live event\, get busy and cannot make it? \nDon’t worry\, you will automatically receive a recording! \nAbout The Presenter \nNorthern Virginia based certified canine separation anxiety trainer and honors graduate of Jean Donaldson’s Academy for Dog Trainers\, Tracy Krulik\, CTC\, CSAT\, is the founder and managing editor of iSpeakDog — a website and public awareness campaign to teach dog body language and behavior.Krulik trains dogs with separation anxiety for the Humane Rescue Alliance in Washington\, D.C.\, group separation anxiety classes for Your Dog’s Friend\, and works with private clients around the world remotely online.

SUMMARY:Webinar - 4/1/21 - When The Evidence Needs A Home: Best Practices for Pre-Conviction Forfeiture Statute Use - NACA/Justice Clearinghouse
DESCRIPTION:Animals seized in the course of cruelty cases have unique needs\, which can pose challenges involving evidence preservation\, unanticipated drains on law enforcement resources\, and harm to the animals themselves. Join Animal Legal Defense Fund Senior Staff Attorney David B. Rosengard to discuss how various versions of state pre-conviction forfeiture statutes offer ways to overcome these hurdles\, providing better outcomes for all involved. \nWebinars in this Series with the ALDF include: \n\nThe Status of Animals in Criminal Animal Cruelty Cases\nOct 29: Understanding Wildlife Animal Cruelty \nJan 21\, 2021:  Preserving the Bond: the Veterinarian’s Role in Pre-Empting Animal Cruelty\nApril 1: When the Evidence Needs a Home: Pre-Conviction Forfeiture (this webinar)\nJuly 15: Prosecuting Farmed Animal Cruelty \n\nOr click here to view and register for other upcoming NACA  webinars on the JCH Platform. \n\n\nThe National Animal Care & Control Association (NACA) was formed in 1978 for the express purpose of assisting its members to perform their duties in a professional manner. We believe only carefully selected and properly trained animal control personnel can correct community problems resulting from irresponsible animal ownership. NACA’s purpose is to preserve the Human/Animal Bond by insisting on responsible animal ownership. \n  \nFounded in 1979\, the Animal Legal Defense Fund’s mission is to protect the lives and advance the interests of animals through the legal system. The Animal Legal Defense Fund accomplishes this mission by filing high-impact lawsuits to protect animals from harm\, providing free legal assistance and training to prosecutors to assure that animal abusers are held accountable for their crimes\, supporting tough animal protection legislation and fighting legislation harmful to animals\, and providing resources and opportunities to law students and professionals to advance the emerging field of animal law. \n  \n  \n\n  \nPresenters \nAs a senior staff attorney in the Animal Legal Defense Fund’s Criminal Justice Program\, David Rosengard works with stakeholders across the criminal justice system to pursue justice on behalf of animal cruelty victims. One of his focus areas is amicus briefs\, where he raises appellate-level arguments aimed at enabling courts to reach decisions that not only address the needs of the animals involved in individual cases\, but to also better position animals as a whole within the law. David additionally helms the Animal Legal Defense Fund’s groundbreaking work helping animals who have been harmed by criminal cruelty achieve the legal status of crime victims\, including efforts to expand Courtroom Animal Advocate Programs which allow pro bono attorneys and law students to act as counsel for those animal crime victims in court. \n\n\nDavid co-edited and contributed to the second edition of Animal Law in a Nutshell and has published law review articles aimed at assisting prisoners in securing vegan meals (“Three Hots and a Cot and a Lot of Talk”: Discussing Federal Rights-Based Avenues for Prisoner Access to Vegan Meals) as well as illuminating the critical impact legal recognition of animal sentience has on constitutional considerations (A Dog is Not a Stereo: The Role of Animal Sentience in Determining the Scope of Owner Privacy Interests Under Oregon Law). David also teaches animal law at his alma mater—Lewis & Clark Law School\, where he graduated twice with honors\, as both a J.D. and an Animal Law LL.M. student. While a student at Lewis & Clark Law School\, David clerked for the Center for Animal Law Studies\, Co-Directed L&C’s Student ALDF chapter\, worked in Kenya on wildlife and animal cruelty issues\, was an Animal Law Review Editor-in-Chief\, and represented the state of Oregon in criminal court on behalf of the Multnomah County District Attorney’s Office as a certified law student. \nPrior to embarking on his legal career\, David earned a B.A. with honors in History and Gender Studies from Claremont McKenna College\, and worked in higher education\, where he focused on sexual assault prevention and response\, peer counseling\, crisis management\, co-curricular education\, sex-blind housing programs\, and community justice. \nDavid lives in Saint Helens\, Oregon with his spouse and a bevy of rescue animals: two cats (Aldor and Papaya) and three dogs (Ace Octavus\, Ellie May\, and Puck). \n\nWEBSITE LINK:  https://www.justiceclearinghouse.com/webinar/when-the-evidence-needs-a-home-best-practices-for-pre-conviction-forfeiture-statute-use/
