SUMMARY:Webinar - 5/17/21 - Make the Shift! Tips To Safely Move Animals to Various Locations with a Team Approach - Dog iBox (fee applies)
DESCRIPTION:It happens at the moment you need it most. The repair person arrives to fix a broken appliance\, and protocol states all pets must be secured. But you cannot find the family cats to ensure they’re safely crated. Or\, the doorbell rings and your dog is playing the ‘chase me game’ to avoid being gated to another part of the home. Perhaps habitat repairs need to be done\, yet the Red fox chooses to take a nap in the outside enclosure while sunbathing rather than move to a holding area. \nWhat if we can put the odds in our favor and work with animals in our care? Rather than watch the clock tick away along with our patience\, let’s start from a point of success. This new webinar with Laura Monaco Torelli will help you to build a productive plan that keeps caregivers’ and animals’ working together. \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://www.dog-ibox.com/market/catalog/live-webinars/live-webinars-english-c-34/make-the-shift.html

SUMMARY:Webinar - 5/19/21 - Bringing Your New Dog Home – How to Promote a Successful Transition to Family Life! - PPG (fee applies)

Triggers might stack up\, making it difficult for the dog to cope. \nIn this presentation we are going to cover DogNostics’ recommendations for successfully introducing a new dog into your family\, helping ensure that the transition into your home is as stress-free as possible for both you and your new family member. \nAlthough the presentation is aimed at pet dog owners\, it will also help pet professionals provide guidance to their clients\, and shelters provide guidance to new adoptees. \nAbout Your Presenter\n\nLouise Stapleton-Frappell – B.A. Hons\, PCT- A\, PCBC-A\, CAP3\, CTDI\, DN-FSG2\, DN-CPCT2\, CWRI\nLouise Stapleton-Frappell\, Partner and Faculty Member of DogNostics Career Center and Board Member of The Pet Professional Guild\, is a Professional Canine Trainer and Behavior Consultant – Accredited by The Pet Professional Accreditation Board.

SUMMARY:Webinar - 5/27/21 - Refresh Your Compassionate Heart: An Everyday Tool for You and Your Team - Texas Unites (fee applies)

SUMMARY:Webinar - 5/27/21 - Pet Stores\, Puppy Mills and Local Action to End the Problem - Texas Unites (fee applies)
DESCRIPTION:Over 300 communities\, including several in Texas\, have banned the sale of puppy mill dogs in pet stores. These humane pet store ordinances are drying up the market for puppy mill dogs and helping to easing the suffering of breeding dogs who are routinely confined in tiny\, filthy cages until they can no longer produce another litter of puppies. Passing a local ordinance\, even if your community does not currently have a puppy selling pet store\, is a vital step in helping bring about an end to this cruel business model. \nYou will hear from two speakers who have decades of lobbying experience and have been at the forefront of this campaign. You’ll learn how to get an ordinance drafted\, introduced and enacted into law. You’ll learn what hurdles that puppy mill lobbyist will throw in your path\, and how to overcome them. This workshop is a must for those who are passionate about ending puppy mills. \nPresenters \nLauren Loney\, Texas State Director\, State Affairs\, The Humane Society of the United States\nAmy Jesse\, Public Policy Director\, Stop Puppy Mills Campaign\, The Humane Society of the United States \nConnect to this webinar on Your Conference Connection Page.  *Password required*\nPassword is provided with registration confirmation. \n***** \nLike this topic?  Register Today! \nYour $49 registration fee provides access to all webinars May 19 through July 1. \nAll sessions are CE approved through DSHS and AAWA with selected sessions approved through TBVME. \nRegistration will remain open throughout the Virtual Learning Series.

SUMMARY:Webinar - 5/27/21 - Overcoming Adoption Barriers: Where Marketing Meets Policy - American Pets Alive!
DESCRIPTION:The intersection of marketing and adoption policies is where the magic happens for reducing barriers to adoption. The role of marketing is to help define our programs for the community\, communicate how to use our services\, and advertise how people can get involved. But great marketing alone can’t increase adoptions if the experience of adopting isn’t supported by good customer service\, open adoption policies\, and solution-driven programs. This webinar looks at how our marketing efforts\, from our social media posts to our adoption bios\, can welcome more community members to our mission. We’ll also discuss how our adoption policies can support this mindset of welcoming our entire community while reducing barriers and saving more pets. \nJoin Clare Callison\, our Maddie’s® Director of National Pet Supply and Demand\, and Caitlin Quinn\, Director of Operations at HeARTs Speak\, for this insightful webinar on May 27 at 5pm CDT. \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/3816189358603/WN_9qb1cBvMQgmJhJVLEqcxPw

She always dreamed of being a veterinarian\, during high school she started an internship program that provided her the opportunity to work as a veterinary technician in a clinic located in Palm Desert. \nShortly after starting the internship\, she quickly realized how many dogs were being euthanized for behavior issues and how little access there was to trainers in the area. Tabitha discussed her concerns with the veterinarians and with their encouragment started to pursue her education in canine behavior. \nTabitha spent the next year raiding local libraries and reading every book on training\, behavior and the evolution of canids. She eventually graduated highschool and continued working as a veterinary technician while training her own dogs and horses. \nTabitha has been training professionally for over 17 years and handling behavior cases for the past 9 years. She is currently certified with CPDT-KA\, ACDBC\, FF-C\, CTDI\, and is working towards PCBC-A.

SUMMARY:Webinar - 6/3/21 - Choice in the Shelter Setting - Texas Unites (fee applies)

SUMMARY:Webinar - 6/3/21 - Working with Dogs That Lack Enthusiasm - FDSA (fee applies)
DESCRIPTION:Some dogs just don’t appear to be enthusiastic about training. This may present as a lack of enthusiasm for all training related activities\, or it may be specific to a certain sport or individual task (e.g. dumbbell retrieve). In some cases\, the dog may even appear to lose interest in training after a period of what appeared to be enthusiastic\, engaged work. \nThe observable behaviors may include: \n\nResponding slowly to cues\, needing repeated cues\, or stopping responding altogether.\nLeaving you or the training area during a session.\nAvoiding eye contact with you or the task.\nEngaging in displacement behaviors such as sniffing the ground during an active training session.\nDeveloping a reluctance to join you at the start of a training session.\n\nIn this webinar we discuss common reasons why these behaviors may occur\, including: \n\nFeeling fearful\, anxious\, frustrated\, or conflicted.\nPhysical limitations.\nLow levels of mental stamina.\nSensitivity to making mistakes.\nSensitivity to changes in the environment.\nImpact of prior learning history.\n\nMost importantly\, we also discuss simple strategies to put the enthusiasm back into the training process\, for both the dog and the human! \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://www.fenzidogsportsacademy.com/index.php/self-study/webinars
