Shelter Learniverse and Industry-Wide Calendar

VETGirl Presents: In this complimentary, 1-hour VETgirl–Elanco webinar, Dr. Susan E. Little, DVM, PhD, DACVM (Parasitology) reviews important parasites and vector-borne pathogens of dogs that can also infect people and explains strategies for minimizing public health risks. Dr. Little will also discuss parasites that are not zoonotic despite common misimpressions. Join us as we sort through the zoo of companion animal zoonoses!

Fear Free Presents: Pain can be the cause of various behavioral concerns, and fear, anxiety, and stress (FAS) will only amplify that pain – and vice versa! Join Dr. Tamara Grubb as she discusses the commonality and impact of chronic pain in dogs, diagnostic tools for osteoarthritis (OA) pain, and treatment options, including the use of monoclonal antibodies.

CalAnimals Presents: The good news is there are lots of proactive steps animal shelters can take to improve safety and reduce risk. In this session, we’ll use real-life examples of dog bites, injuries, and other safety incidents to explore the roots of what went wrong and what corrective actions will help.

FDSA Presents (fee applies): Do you want your dog to feel better emotionally and be in a good learning space mentally? Come examine the idea of threshold, how you can best determine it for your dog, and how getting it right can really accelerate the reduction of stress in your dog!
