SUMMARY:Webinar - 4/17/24 - Practical Calicivirus: All You Need to Know from Diagnosis to Adoption - Maddie's Fund
DESCRIPTION:Feline calicivirus is a contagious\, often severe virus in cats that can be difficult\, time-consuming\, and expensive to treat. However\, standardized protocols help treat these cats efficiently\, reduce transmission within the shelter\, and get cats moving toward live outcomes. This webcast will cover diagnosing calicivirus without the use of expensive testing; treating the virus and caring for sick cats in the shelter; and clearing and adopting the cats after illness. \nLearning Objectives: \n\nAttendees will learn how to diagnose calicivirus without expensive testing.\nAttendees will take away best practice treatment protocols.\nAttendees will understand how\, and when\, to clear cats and move them along toward their outcome.\n\n Maddie’s Pet Forum discussion thread  https://maddies.fund/ForumWebcastCalicivrius \nThis webinar will be recorded and has been pre-approved for 1.0 Certified Animal Welfare Administrator continuing education credits by The Association for Animal Welfare Advancement and by the National Animal Care & Control Association.

In 2012\, she joined Austin Pets Alive! where she led her team to an 88 percent growth in cat adoptions and helped Austin achieve a citywide 98 percent live release rate for cats.

SUMMARY:Webinar - 4/19/24 - For Dog's sake\, can you stop that? Canine-Friendly Body Language Improvements for Humans - Dogs Playing for Life (fee applies)
DESCRIPTION:Dogs are resilient and oh-so-forgiving! These qualities make them endearing as companions\, along with their ability to love unconditionally. So\, why do some dogs struggle to understand us when we are offering affection or when we want to help them\, not harm them? In this session\, we will focus on the HUMAN handling that contributes to unwanted behavior\, even “aggression”. Get ready to rethink your approach as we reveal the common and widely accepted and taught handling errors that set dogs up for failure. Through extensive video examples\, we will demonstrate alternative handling techniques that help dogs to trust and thrive! \nThis webinar will demonstrate: \n– Examples of handling that causes negative behavior compared to handling that promotes  desired behavior \n– Demonstration of handling that induces trust and learning with dogs that are too afraid to respond initially to food rewards or affection \n– Comprehensive discussion around the correct use of pressure and release and why this is a critical skill for shelter canine handlers to master to save more dogs \nThis is a 2-hour presentation followed by a 30 min Q&A session. This webinar costs $20 and you will receive the recording the next day. \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_EYFAcMH0S-6beQZX-RStQQ#/
