SUMMARY:Webinar - 5/26/22 - Off-Leash Skills for Puppies with Erin Lynes - FDSA (fee applies)
DESCRIPTION:Having a puppy off leash can be a nerve-wracking affair! But being able to have your little one safely off leash provides a lot of freedom\, helps prevent over-extending their leash skills\, and allows for the best type of natural exercise for a growing body. \nBut isn’t this a super advanced skill? Isn’t this too hard for puppies? \nNo and no! \nPuppies have some genetic pre-programming that means off-leash training is actually easier when you start earlier! Baby puppies have stronger social motivations\, stronger instincts to follow\, and lack competing reinforcement history from the environment – all factors that help make off leash walks and recalls much easier to introduce sooner than later\, and change with time and experience to make off-leash training harder to start from scratch. \nThis webinar will cover several strategies to help you build your puppy’s off leash skills from the ground up\, will help your recognize developmental milestones that will mean changing your strategy as your puppy ages\, and help you discover the benefits of a shared trust that comes when both you and your puppy are comfortable in off-leash situations. The skills covered in this webinar include recall\, attention\, and boundaries as they relate to being off leash. We’ll also discuss the types of environments that you’ll want to seek out to best teach these skills and the types of challenges that you’ll want to be aware of and plan for\, depending on your puppy’s genetics! Finally\, we’ll discuss under what conditions a particular puppy may not be ready for off-leash training. \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://www.fenzidogsportsacademy.com/index.php/self-study/webinars

SUMMARY:Webinar - 5/31/22 - Dominance: How It Impacts Dog Training and Why It’s Not an Argument for Force - PPG (fee applies)
DESCRIPTION:Dominance – What it is. What it isn’t… the impacts on dog training and why it’s not an argument for force. \nHow can the research and information on dominance be contradictory? Join this webinar to learn about social dominance\, starting with an overview of conflict resolution in various species of animals. \nQueen bees and workers. Why do some individuals sacrifice themselves during mating? Isn’t that maladaptive? A look at haplodiploid species and why anyone would “serve the hive.” \nCEUs: PPAB 1\, CCPDT (pending)\, IAABC (pending)\, KPA (pending) \nLearning Objectives \n\nLearn how social structure can lead to adaptive processes such as sex changes to avoid conflict.\nHow does the sociality of the species impact displays\, mating\, and group dynamics.\nLearn why we cannot extrapolate data from one species to another without concern.\nThe role of sex in various social societies. Why do some species have harems?\nHow exactly do dogs fit into all of this? Are dogs “dominant” if yes\, does it matter?\nHow much does dominance impact dog training?\n\nPresenter\nYvette Van Veen has two decades of experience training dogs\, lives and works in London Ontario. She offers both group and private sessions. She has worked extensively with formerly feral dogs.

SUMMARY:6/6/22 - Managing a Multi-Dog Household: The Lazy Dog Trainer Edition -  PPG (fee applies)
DESCRIPTION:In this webinar\, Kristi Benson will delve into the ways the guardians of a multi-dog household can make their living situations more peaceful and joyful\, for both the humans and the dogs involved. She’ll review safety factors in having a home with multiple dogs\, including how dogs function as social carnivores and how and why other pets and small children may be at risk. She will delve into “management”\, or the prevention of problem behaviours before they start\, when dealing with multiple animals.

Kristi will cover how to comfortably bring clients on board with kinder techniques and dismantling client myths about behaviour and dynamics among multi-dog homes. She will also tackle how to have tricky conversations about re-homing and permanent separation of animals in a single home. \nKristi has lived with up to 13 dogs in her home when she was running a sled dog rescue and has tested and streamlined effective and welfare-forward techniques to meet everyone’s needs while keeping the (relative) peace in a busy home. \nLearning Objectives: \n\nIdentify safety considerations for multi-dog households\, including with cats and children.\nUnderstand the basics of predatory behaviour and acquired bite inhibition.\nUnderstand and implement management (response prevention) for multi-dog households to reduce problem behaviours including fighting.\nIdentify useful and important training plans\, and how to effectively train in a multi-dog household.\nUnderstand the basics of classical conditioning and how to use it in a solo-counterconditioning protocol on-the-fly.\nIdentify and reduce risk/harm in worst-case scenarios.\n\nWEBSITE LINK:  https://petprofessionalguild.com/event-4818894
