CASCAR Zoom Call for California Shelters – 1/21/21 – How LA County Launched Managed Intake – CASCAR – UC Davis KSMP
VirtualKSMP Presents: LA County had already begun discussing a strategic rollout of Managed Intake, but Covid came along and forced so many of our hands. Last spring, seemingly overnight, Managed Intake was launched countywide at all seven Animal Care Centers in LA County. While there wasn’t time for the communication or implementation runway they had hoped for, the team had already done their research, knew a streamlined process served more animals and people, and they were committed to their decision. Come hear about how they did it—the challenges, surprises, and the celebrations—and how they are going all-in on a larger plan for Managed Sheltering.

CASCAR Zoom Call for California Shelters – 2/18/21 – Riverside County Field Services Update – CASCAR – UC Davis KSMP
VirtualKSMP Presents: This coming Thursday, in addition to the usual hellos and whatever is pressing on people’s minds, we will hear a quick update from Chris Mayer, the Commander of Field Operations for the Riverside County Dept. of Animal Services, on how the various changes of the past year have been integrated into the work of their field services team. I heard him speak on a recent Maddie’s Friday Leadership Call and asked him to give a reprise for us as the field service perspective is such an important one to include. We are eager to hear from you as well – field officers are on the front lines of communication, often on their own in the moment. What has worked well, what challenges have you run across in terms of supporting officers and bringing the whole shelter team along with new programs and policies?

Webinar – 1/28/21 – Genetics of Dog Aggression – Dr. Jessica Hekman, DVM, PhD – PPG (fee applies)
VirtualPet Professional Guild Presents (fee applies): What do (and don’t) we know about how genetics affects canine aggression? In this webinar, Jessica Hekman will take a deep dive into her own area of research – how genetics affects personality in dogs. How much of canine personality is due to genetics and how much to environment? How do researchers track down genes related to personality? Have any such genes yet been found? Can we expect a genetic test for dog reactivity any time soon? In this webinar, Jessica will particularly address examples from human literature about traits that are similar to reactivity and aggression in dogs, why they are so hard to understand from a genetics viewpoint, and what the future holds for us.
