SUMMARY:Webinar - 9/21/21 - Part 2: Data-Driven Decision Making for Animal Welfare Organizations - NACA/Justice Clearinghouse
DESCRIPTION:Now that we have the basics down\, let’s look at some examples of “data dashboards” and how they can be used to help drive conversations\, gain support\, and give leadership a snapshot of how an organization is doing.  In this presentation\, we will take the foundations from part one and explore ways of applying them to help move our organizations forward in the best way possible for our people and their pets. \nOther Webinars in this Series \n\nAug 17: Part 1 -Data-Driven Decision Making for Animal Welfare Organizations\nSept 21: Part 2 -Data-Driven Decision Making for Animal Welfare Organizations (this webinar)\n\nPresenters: \n \nDr. Josh Fisher has an educational background in population management/medicine\, public health\, veterinary sciences\, informatics\, and healthcare administration.  He has been working in the veterinary medical/animal welfare field for over 15 years holding management roles in private practices\, cooperate practices\, the NCSU College of Veterinary Medicine\, county government\, and now as the Animal Services Director for the City of Charlotte/Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department. \nA strong advocate for professional development and growth in the animal welfare industry\, Josh seeks to involve staff in continued education and training opportunities as well as in cutting edge industry research.  His professional interests focus on disease reduction/prevention\, advanced marketing/placement and intake reduction tactics\, strategic planning\, and staff career development in the area of animal welfare.  His projects include increasing interest of veterinary/veterinary technician students in the animal welfare industry as well as working with community veterinarians to break down barriers\, develop relationships\, and increase involvement in community-focused animal welfare (animal control and sheltering) practices. \nIt is a passion of Josh’s to bring a level of awareness to the animal welfare industry in such a way that young adults and college students make the decision to pursue animal welfare as a profession rather than falling into it by chance. \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://www.justiceclearinghouse.com/webinar/data-driven-decision-making-for-animal-welfare-organizations-part-2/

SUMMARY:Webinar - 7/21/21 - "The Need for Veterinary Involvement in the Airline Industry" with Dr. Nelva Bryant - Black DVM Network
DESCRIPTION:Animals are transported domestically and internationally via air for zoos\, aquariums\, and research facilities. Animals are also transported for commercial purposes and as personal pets. Specific animal welfare regulations and policies must be abided by to ensure these animals arrive to their destinations safely. Veterinary involvement in the airline industry is needed to explain the regulations\, ensure compliance with animal welfare regulations\, educate animal shippers/animal owners of the regulations\, assist with monitoring the health and welfare of animals during air transport\, and guide decisions related to the transportation of animals. During the presentation\, Dr. Bryant will discuss how having veterinary involvement in the airline industry could benefit animal welfare. \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://www.blackdvmnetwork.com/event-details/the-need-for-veterinary-involvement-in-the-airline-industry-with-dr-nelva-bryant

SUMMARY:Webinar - 7/22/21 - Eat\, Play\, Love! Developing Your New Relationship With Your Puppy by Deb Jones - FDSA (fee applies)
DESCRIPTION:This webinar is all about the start of your journey with your puppy. If we’re lucky\, we are starting out on a 15 year or so relationship. That’s much longer than many human relationships! We will talk about ways to set the tone for a long term mutually enjoyable partnership. People are often uncertain how to set the parameters in the early days with a new puppy. What’s important to do right away and what can (and often should) wait until later when the puppy is more mature? Doing the right things at the right times is really important\, but how do we know what to do and when to do it? Join Deb for a thorough discussion of the most important concepts and skills to introduce to your pup. She’ll talk about the importance of discovering valuable reinforcers while developing your relationship and establishing rules. Her 3 Rs for puppy raising of Relationship\, Reinforcers\, and Rules will serve as a clear guide for your puppy training in the early days. \nWhile food is one of the most universal and valuable reinforcers we can use\, people often take it for granted and don’t consider how to grow and maintain it over time. We’ll consider how to develop and increase interest and food\, and how to use it thoughtfully not only to reinforce behaviors but to build your relationship. When it comes to toys and play we will give you some clear ideas and guidelines for introducing toys\, determining your pup’s natural play preferences\, and putting structure around the games we play together. \nSpeaking of structure\, we will also consider the importance of your key rules for life and how to introduce and maintain those with consistency. Your rules may well be different than mine\, and that’s okay. We all have different situations and care about different aspects of living with dogs. \nWhen it comes to a new puppy we all want to do it “right” this time and avoid our previous mistakes. In the process we will likely make new and different mistakes. That’s okay\, life with a puppy isn’t about being perfect. It’s about doing our best to be the kind of life and training partners our pups need and deserve. \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://www.fenzidogsportsacademy.com/index.php/fdsa-calendar

SUMMARY:Webinar - 7/22/21 - Fighting Fungus with Education: SPORE Program and Finishing School Foster Program - Getting 2 Zero
DESCRIPTION:At many shelters\, ringworm can lead to devastating consequences. However\, it does not have to be — with proper protocols\, it can be safely treated and cured.  At the San Francisco SPCA\, we save over 350 animals with ringworm every year. Wanting to do more\, we created the SPORE (Shelters Preventing Outbreaks of Ringworm through Education) program in 2013 to teach others how to better detect\, treat\, and manage ringworm in their shelter.  For this session\, we will be outlining research-based protocols that are in use here at the SF SPCA and examine how those same concepts apply to a variety of different shelters and rescues. We will explore the use of volunteers and the community to help this type of program flourish in fanatically constrained environments\, such as animal shelters.  We will also take a look at a new pilot foster program for ringworm animals called the Finishing School Foster Program that fosters out ringworm animals at the end of their treatment\, freeing up space in the shelter to help more animals in need. \nPresenter: Dr. Laura Mullen \nLaura started working at the San Francisco SPCA in 2001\, enjoyed a variety of roles with in the Shelter Medicine Department\, ranging from Veterinary Assistant to Foster Coordinator\, and has now settled in the position of Shelter Medicine Outreach Programs Manager.  She is passionate about education and finding workable solutions within the shelter community. In 2012\, Laura received a small grant from the SF SPCA board to start the SPORE Program that now saves over 350 animals with ringworm yearly.  SPORE\, Shelters Preventing Outbreaks of Ringworm through Education\, is a program that teaches shelters how to better detect\, treat and manage ringworm in the shelter setting.  Starting out her training locally\, focusing on municipal shelters in the Bay Area\, she soon discovered a niche that would help to save countless of innocent lives. With the help of Maddie’s Fund\, more than 80 shelters from over 25 different states have come to the SF SPCA to receive training from the SPORE Program\, are currently treating ringworm at their facility\, eliminating fear though education in their community and saving lives. \nRegister here: https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_UIy9oXbuT7iUfsQ9PzOTgQ \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://www.g2z.org.au/g2z-webinars-and-online-events.html
