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.
