SUMMARY:Webinar - 9/30/21 - Top 3 Solutions to End Doorbell Pandemonium - Nancy Tucker - FDSA (fee applies)
DESCRIPTION:The doorbell. Ugh. If anything can cause the most canine chaos with the least amount of effort\, it’s the common doorbell or a knock at the door. That simple musical chime (or knock-knock) triggers barking\, racing through the house\, and crowding the entrance. Even when the sound just comes from the TV! \nWhat follows is often the addition of human voices shouting over the noise in an unsuccessful attempt to quiet things down. \nThere’s a better way. No shouting\, no diving for the mute button on the remote\, no wading through barking\, hopping dogs at the door. \nIn this webinar we’ll cover the top 3 approaches to curbing the chaotic response to doorbells or knocking\, with the aim to restore peace and calm in your home\, even when the UPS driver shows up. \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://www.fenzidogsportsacademy.com/index.php/self-study/webinars

SUMMARY:Webinar - 10/6/21 - Who Controls the Training Session - You or the Animal? Presented by Dr. Karolina Westlund - PPG (fee applies)
DESCRIPTION:CEUs: PPAB 1\, CCPDT (pending)\, IAABC (pending)\, KPA (pending) \nMany animal trainers\, veterinarians and pet owners highlight the importance of controlling animals. Controlling them\, as in restricting the animals’ movement\, their choices and their opportunities to control their environment through their behavior. \nSometimes you have to\, for safety reasons. But often you don’t – and more often than you might think. Actually\, the trend in modern animal training is to deliberately and strategically shift control from the handler to the animal\, while still staying safe. Giving control to animals enables us to better understand their quirks and preferences\, not to mention reducing fear and improving welfare. In this session\, the presenter will walk through a formal training session and discuss all the possible ways of handing control to the animal during training. For instance: \n\nDoes the animal have control when\, where and with whom a training session starts?\nWhen ending it?\nWhen individual trials within a session start (so called start buttons).\nWhich behavior to work on?\nCan he say\, “No\, actually\, I changed my mind?”\nCan he choose his reinforcer?\n\nThese questions and more will be discussed. Some might say it’s preposterous to allow the animal to dictate the training session. But that’s not what the presenter is saying you should do. After all\, you have options\, too\, and one of them is to choose when to hand over control to the animal – and when not to. \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://petprofessionalguild.com/event-4300600

SUMMARY:Webinar - 10/14/21 - Psychopharmacology: Prescribing for Canine and Feline Patients - ACVB (fee applies)
DESCRIPTION:Many indications for psychotropic medications exist\, including generalized anxiety\, separation anxiety\, panic disorders\, persistent phobias\, compulsive disorders and more. Daily drugs are given as such – every day\, regardless of events\, season\, or stress level. Patients on daily psychotropic medications may still be in need of additional help to alleviate panic\, fear and/or anxiety during predictable\, situational events\, as the daily medications may not be enough to control intense spike in stress levels. Other patients who display distress only as a result of known\, predictable triggers\, such as fireworks\, car travel or thunderstorms\, may benefit from an event medication alone. This lecture will give an overview of the main classes of drugs used for daily and as needed treatment of emotional disorders in dogs and cats – how they work\, what the therapeutic expectations are for each\, and what side effects may be expected. Drug interactions\, adverse effects\, and weaning protocols will also be discussed. \nDr. Meghan Herron is the Senior Director of Behavioral Medicine Research\, Education\, and Outreach at Gigi’s – A Shelter Organization dedicated to improving the lives of shelter dogs. Prior to her current position\, she spent over a decade as head of the Behavioral Medicine Service at The Ohio State University. She graduated from The Ohio State University College of Veterinary Medicine and became board-certified as diplomate of the American College of Veterinary Behaviorists after completing a residency at the University of Pennsylvania. \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://register.gotowebinar.com/register/5985218351663722252

SUMMARY:Webinar - 10/19/21 - Positive Marketing for Maximum Impact - HeARTs Speak
DESCRIPTION:While we busily work on behalf of animals\, how can we also connect with community members\, especially those who haven’t considered or had access to pet adoption or animal services? How can we break down stereotypes about our work and promote even our harder-to-place pets more effectively? Together we’ll tackle these questions and more! Join us October 19th at 3pm EST/12pm PST. \nThis 1-hour workshop examines the easy-to-implement\, often subtle shifts we can make to reach new audiences and the power of positivity in building relationships and changing minds.

SUMMARY:Webinar - 10/20/21 - How Cognitive Biases Interfere with How We Acquire Knowledge - PPG (fee applies)
DESCRIPTION:CEUs: PPAB 1\, CCPDT 1\, IAABC 1\, KPA 1 \nGiven how behaviorists\, ethologists\, neuroscientists and veterinarians often get into conflict\, this talk discusses how our cognitive biases impact knowledge acquisition. Cognitive biases makes us reject information that we should accept\, and accept information that we should reject. In this talk\, the presenter will discuss a handful of them: \n\nThe curse of knowledge.\nAuthority bias.\nThe illusory truth effect.\nThe availability cascade.\nTribal epistemology.\nConfirmation bias.\nThe Semmelweiss effect. The backfire effect.\nReactance.\nThe Dunning-Kruger effect.\n\nThe aim of this session is to open attendees’ minds more to how biases come about and how problematic this is – and facilitate those difficult discussions with people who have other backgrounds. \nLevel of difficulty: Beginner – Intermediate (not difficult concepts but to many people a lot of new terms\, maybe) \nAbout Your Presenter \nProf. Karolina Westlund helps pet parents and animal professionals attain happier animals that thrive in the care of humans. She grew up pining for a kitten and pestered her parents until they finally gave in. The resulting black\, green-eyed\, half-Siamese cat she got for her seventh birthday became a true friend who lived to be 21 years old but was an easily startled cat who often went into hiding when there were visitors. She had grand ideas about becoming a field biologist\, but instead she majored in ethology and developed a passionate interest in animal welfare as seen through a multidisciplinary lens\, including behaviour analysis and affective neuroscience. She is now an associate professor of ethology at the University of Stockholm\, Sweden where she mainly teaches about how behavior management can be used to improve animal welfare. She also conducts live seminars\, free online webinars and masterclasses in addition to more extensive courses\, as well as the occasional scientific publication on the topic of enrichment\, animal training and well-being. \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://petprofessionalguild.com/event-4300656
