SUMMARY:Webinar - 1/21/21 - Preserving the Bond: the Veterinarian’s Role in Pre-Empting Animal Cruelty - NACA/Justice Clearinghouse
DESCRIPTION:When a low-income client presents a severely neglected animal to a veterinarian for treatment\, the doctor faces a difficult conundrum: is it their duty to protect the animal from continued neglect\, or is it their duty to help the person who may be struggling financially to care for their animal? In states where veterinary reporting of animal cruelty is mandatory\, the stress this ethical dilemma can put on a veterinarian is significant. Throughout this webinar\, the presenters will discuss the veterinarian’s role in both preserving the human-animal bond and addressing animal cruelty resulting from poverty. \n  \nWebinars in this Series with the ALDF include:\n\nThe Status of Animals in Criminal Animal Cruelty Cases\nOct 29: Understanding Wildlife Animal Cruelty \nJan 21\, 2021:  Preserving the Bond: the Veterinarian’s Role in Pre-Empting Animal Cruelty (this webinar)\nApril 1: When the Evidence Needs a Home: Pre-Conviction Forfeiture\nJuly 15: Prosecuting Farmed Animal Cruelty\n\n  \nOr click here to view and register for other upcoming NACA  webinars on the JCH Platform. \n  \n\n \n  \nThe National Animal Care & Control Association (NACA) was formed in 1978 for the express purpose of assisting its members to perform their duties in a professional manner. We believe only carefully selected and properly trained animal control personnel can correct community problems resulting from irresponsible animal ownership. NACA’s purpose is to preserve the Human/Animal Bond by insisting on responsible animal ownership. \n  \n  \n  \nFounded in 1979\, the Animal Legal Defense Fund’s mission is to protect the lives and advance the interests of animals through the legal system. The Animal Legal Defense Fund accomplishes this mission by filing high-impact lawsuits to protect animals from harm\, providing free legal assistance and training to prosecutors to assure that animal abusers are held accountable for their crimes\, supporting tough animal protection legislation and fighting legislation harmful to animals\, and providing resources and opportunities to law students and professionals to advance the emerging field of animal law. \n  \n  \n\n  \n\n\n\n\nPresenters:\nDr. Kris Otteman brings 34 years of veterinary and leadership experience to her current role as Senior Advisor to the Oregon Humane Society and Veterinary Leadership and Forensics Expert. She is also a courtesy faculty member for Oregon State University College of Veterinary Medicine and a board-certified specialist\, ABVP Shelter Medicine\, and a Certified Animal Welfare Administrator. \nAs a member of the senior leadership team at OHS for 14 years\, she lead the development of the Shelter Medical Services including the teaching program for Oregon State University\, College of Veterinary Medicine\, and for Veterinary Forensics Services. \nThe OHS Animal Medical Learning Center\, the nation’s first shelter teaching hospital\, cares for over 12\,000 shelter pets annually\, provides over 5\,000 low-income spay-neuter\, and wellness services\, and houses a comprehensive veterinary forensic team posed to provide onsite or field services. \nAs co-founder of Banfield\, The Pet Hospital\, her background also includes seven years in a mixed animal practice in southern Oregon. Her broad experience at Banfield included executive leadership and management as well as a strategic partnership with PetSmart Charities on national fundraising and adoption initiatives. She has served on the board for Cat Adoption Team\, as a trustee of Banfield Charitable Trust\, and has been a member of the Oregon Veterinary Medical Licensing Board. Dr. Otteman is a Charter Member of the International Veterinary Forensic Sciences Association\, served on the National Shelter Medicine Organizing committee\, and most recently was awarded the OSU/CVM Alumni Fellow award for her work in the profession that has advanced and improved veterinary education and the partnerships between animal welfare and veterinary professionals. \n\n  \nLinda Fielder has over 20 years of experience as an animal welfare specialist\, 15 of which were spent at the Oregon Humane Society. As Director of Shelter Medicine and Humane Investigations there\, Linda oversaw every aspect of animal cruelty cases from the point they were first reported through the victim animals’ recovery and rehoming. A Certified Animal Welfare Administrator and a Certified Property and Evidence Specialist\, Linda’s expertise in veterinary medicine and humane care and treatment of animals combined with her understanding of evidence collection and handling\, resulted in successful large scale criminal seizures involving livestock\, dog breeders\, fighting animals and animal hoarding scenarios. She has extensive experience in developing and implementing procedures that preserve both the wellbeing of the animals and the integrity of the criminal case. \nIn addition to supervising a fully operational 12\,000 square foot veterinary teaching hospital and a law enforcement division with statewide jurisdiction\, Linda also conceptualized and oversaw OHS’ Emergency Animal Sheltering certification program\, one of the first in the country\, which enabled staff and volunteers to respond nationwide to natural disasters and large scale cruelty cases. She created the annual Victim to Verdict conference which was the first in the region to bring together multi-disciplinary players in animal cruelty cases for training. \nLinda has trained veterinarians\, prosecutors\, and law enforcement professionals from across the globe in crime scene processing\, large-scale seizures\, and link between animal cruelty and human violence. \n  \nSenior Staff Attorney Emily Lewis works directly with law enforcement agencies\, prosecutors and rescue groups providing direction and support for all aspects of criminal animal cruelty investigation and prosecution.  She supports front-line responders by training and consulting on search warrant drafting\, evidence collection and scene processing best practices. \nEmily joined the Animal Legal Defense Fund after serving as staff attorney for the Oregon Humane Society Humane Law Enforcement Division\, where she directly participated in hundreds of animal cruelty investigations\, including the raid of a massive animal-fighting compound\, cases involving large-scale neglect of livestock\, and all manner of  puppy mill and animal hoarder scenarios. It is this firsthand experience that has given her such a deep understanding of animal cruelty casework and prosecution. At the Capital\, Emily was integral in the passage of a number of important animal protection bills including stricter laws prohibiting animal fighting\, oversight of animal rescue entities\, the Humane Agent Bill\, increased cross reporting\, and strengthening of pre-trial remedies available to animal care agencies or individuals. Emily’s work on these bills  — along with her implementation of the first legal internship program at the humane society and her support and training of agency officers\, staff and veterinarians — contributed to the rise of the Oregon Humane Society as a national leader in the field of animal cruelty investigation and veterinary forensics\, in particular. She has presented nationally and internationally on the importance of the veterinarian’s role in recognizing\, reporting and responding to animal neglect and abuse. \nEmily holds a JD and Master of Studies in Environmental Law (MSEL) from Vermont Law School\, where she graduated with honors and was awarded the Academic Excellence Award  in both Torts and Environmental Ethics. She earned a B.A. in Environmental Ethics & Policy and was awarded the Arthur Schoenfeldt Environmental Ethics and Policy Award from the University of Portland. She is a two time winner of Spot Magazine’s “Top Dog: Attorney” award (2014 and 2016). \nEmily is passionate about her role as a voice for animals and aiding in the pursuit of justice on their behalf. \nBased in Portland\, Ore.\, Emily lives with her rescued Great Dane\, Whiskey. She enjoys running\, live music\, visiting the Pacific Ocean coastline\, and spends time on her weekends volunteering at the Family Dogs New Life Shelter. \n\n\nWEBSITE LINK:  https://www.justiceclearinghouse.com/webinar/preserving-the-bond-and-preventing-cruelty-the-veterinarians-role/

SUMMARY:Webinar - 1/27/21 - How the Legislative Process Works - The AAWA
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a basic overview of how a bill becomes a law at state and federal levels. We’ll talk about the roles lobbyists\, citizen advocates\, and the government each play in developing public policy. Learn about the players within each of the three branches of government: \n\nGovernors and State-level departments (Executive Branch)\nLegislators and their staffs (Legislative Branch)\nThe Judiciary (Judicial Branch)\n\nThis is part 1 of 3 in the Effective Legislative Advocacy webinar series. This series will provide animal welfare professionals with actionable ideas to increase capacity to help animals through public policy. Public policy is a critical way to influence and impact animal welfare in the long term at local\, state\, and federal levels. These sessions will be location-generic though state-specific legislation will be used as examples. \nThis live and recorded program is approved for 1 Certified Animal Welfare Administrator continuing education credit. \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://learning.theaawa.org/products/12721-how-the-legislative-process-works

SUMMARY:Webinar - 1/28/21 - Continuing the Conversation on "The Lives and Deaths of Shelter Animals": A Q&A with Katja M. Guenther - American Pets Alive!
DESCRIPTION:As Human Animal Support Services moves our effort toward community involvement\, what can social justice and racial justice movements teach us to help people and animals together? How can we ground ourselves in a future of animal sheltering that believes “the project for justice for animals requires justice for people and vice versa? \nJoin us January 28 at 5pm CST to continue our conversation with Katja M. Guenther\, Ph.D. In this Q&A based webinar\, we will continue to unpack Guenther’s latest work\, “The Lives and Deaths of Shelter Animals.” An essential book for anyone working in animal shelters and Human Animal Support Services\, Guenther writes about her vision for the “Humane Communities Revolution.” Linking animal sheltering to human ideas about race\, class\, gender\, ability\, and species\, Guenther explores internal hierarchies\, breed discrimination\, resistance\, and agency. \nLet’s dive even deeper into this incredible book. Submit your questions ahead of time to webinars@americanpetsalive.org for a thought-provoking conversation with professor and author\, Katja M. Guenther. \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://bit.ly/3bFBTTT
