SUMMARY:Webinar - 2/29/24 - Beyond the Save Rate: Integrating People into the Sheltering Equation - HASS
DESCRIPTION:Having a 90% or higher save rate has become the gold standard for measuring the success or failure of an animal shelter or rescue\, and it will continue to be an important metric. The problem is that the save rate focuses only on a singular point in a complex societal issue. The more the animal welfare industry learns about people and pets\, the more we realize that the trouble is less about the pets in the shelter and more about the “people problems” that put them there to begin with. Dr. Ellen Jefferson\, President and CEO of Austin Pets Alive!\, covered this topic in her recent Psychology Today article. Now\, she’s joining us alongside Cole Wakefield\, Executive Director of The Good Shepherd Humane Society\, to discuss in a live webinar. Read the article\, bring your questions\, and join us to participate in what is sure to be a lively discussion. Vincent Medley\, Maddie’s® Director of Human Animal Support Services\, will moderate. \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://zoom.us/webinar/register/7816739797796/WN_BbAxiIkKT5a0npxBae_Aaw#/registration

SUMMARY:Webinar – 3/1/24 – Fancy Footwork: Practical Handling and Training Solutions for the Entire Shelter – Dogs Playing for Life (fee applies)
DESCRIPTION:While playgroups are the foundation of our shelter training program\, teaching shelter teams how to implement a generalized\, effective\, and enjoyable way to handle and train their dogs is another essential aspect of our canine programming! In this webinar\, we will teach the fundamentals of our “Fancy Footwork” techniques that focus on achieving good leash manners through the use of your FEET instead of your hands. Come learn this unique and highly effective approach that promotes dogs happily walking softly by your side\, offering tons of eye contact\, and wowing adopters! This new approach to leash work will enhance your handling skills and increase your ability to train ALL dogs\, even those that are highly aroused\, stressed\, fearful\, or not motivated by food\, all in an effort to improve quality of life and lifesaving for dogs living in shelters. \nAdditionally\, we will teach you how to implement our critically important kennel routines. The kennel areas of our nation’s shelters can be one of the most challenging and distressing environments that dogs–and their handlers–ever face. DPFL kennel routines have been developed and taught to shelters across the country in an effort to combat these challenges and to provide safer and more successful ways for dogs and people to maneuver through the kennels. \nThis is a 1.5-hour presentation followed by a Q&A session. This webinar will NOT be recorded and is scheduled on EASTERN TIME. \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_MrNY3gfvTWCwAJTbtrwoPg#/registration
