Webinar – 10/1/20 – All in the Family: Interdog Aggression Inside the Home – FDSA (fee applies)
FDSA Presents (fee applies): Let’s face it—many of us have more than one dog. We enjoy our dogs so much, yet they don’t always enjoy each other. Just witnessing a physical altercation between dogs can be traumatic. Why does this happen? Do the dogs simply dislike each other? Or is there more to it than that? Accurate assessment is not always easy but it is essential. This webinar will teach you tips that will help you evaluate the relationship between your own dogs. Once the reason for conflict is clear, a personalized treatment and management plan can be designed.

Webinar – 10/2/20 – Stressed Out: Dogs, Hormones and Stress – Dr. Jessica Hekman – PPG (fee applies)
PPG Presents (fee applies): Anxiety is a major problem for many pet dogs. What happens in your dog’s brain and body when something scares her? How long can you expect her stress response to last? In this webinar, Jessica Hekman, DVM, PhD, will talk about the stress response in dogs. She will explain the original evolutionary purpose of the stress response; what the hormones involved in it (like cortisol) do in the body; the difference between acute and chronic stress and the different effects they have on dogs’ health; and what we know about how long it takes the body to clear those hormones. You will definitely learn some cool stuff about how the brain works and what that means for your stressed-out dog!
