SUMMARY:Webinar - 6/15/20 - Introducing Highly Reactive and Aggressive Dogs - A Case Study - Ken Ramirez - Karen Pryor Academy
DESCRIPTION:Introducing Highly Reactive and Aggressive Dogs – A Case Study – Monday\, June 15\, 2020 | Noon EST\, 9 AM Pacific\nWith KPA’s EVP & Chief Training Officer\, Ken Ramirez\nKen will share the case study of a project he conducted from 2013 through 2015 in Chicago. He will explore the challenges and protocols he followed in working with four dogs rescued from Chicago area shelters. Three of the dogs were severely reactive\, one was a trained fighting dog\, and all had a bite history. The protocol followed was an introduction protocol\, not an aggression treatment protocol. Although the project resulted in a significant reduction in aggression\, the protocol was designed to teach animals how to live together and how to cohabitate. Ken will share the details of the protocol and share the steps he used to teach the dogs to work cooperatively and live together. \nPresenter\n\n\nKen Ramirez \n\n\nKen Ramirez is the Executive Vice President and Chief Training Officer at Karen Pryor Clicker Training (KPCT). As a trainer and consultant with nearly 40 years of experience\, Ken also served as the Executive Vice President at Chicago’s world-famous Shedd Aquarium.\n\nClick Here to Register

SUMMARY:Webinar - 6/16/20 - Improving Public Safety by Stopping Animal Cruelty - The LINK - NACA - Justice Clearinghouse
DESCRIPTION:“If somebody is harming an animal\, there’s a good chance they also are hurting a human\,” notes John Thompson of the National Sheriffs’ Association. With four types of cruelty to animals now included in the FBI’s NIBRS process\, animal abuse is recognized as a serious crime in its own right and a predictor of family\, youth\, community\, and organized violence. This seminar will discuss how specialized animal crimes units\, law enforcement and prosecutors’ offices and veterinary forensics teams are responding to animal abuse to also prevent domestic\, elder\, and child abuse. \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 \nThe National Law Enforcement Center on Animal Abuse was established by the National Sheriffs’ Association to provide law enforcement officers information on the realities of animal abuse and to promote their proactive involvement in the enforcement of animal abuse laws in their communities. Through our partners\, the Center will serve as an information clearinghouse and forum for law enforcement on the growing problem of animal abuse and its link to other types of crimes\, including violence against humans. The Center also promotes officer safety in officer-dog encounters through continuing education and training. \n\n\n\n** This webinar has been certified by the National Sheriffs’ Association and may be eligible for Continuing Education Units through your POST. Please consult your local certification processes for additional details. Paid subscribers that attend will be able to download a jointly issued attendance certificate that includes the National Sheriffs’ Association logo.\n\n\n\nPresenters:\n\n\n\nInternationally acclaimed lecturer\, author and educator Phil Arkow is coordinator of the National LINK Coalition – the National Resource Center on The LINK between Animal Abuse and Human Violence – and edits the monthly LINK-Letter. He chairs the Latham Foundation’s Animal Abuse and Family Violence Prevention Project. He teaches at the University of Florida\, Harcum College and Camden County College. He has presented over 250 times in 17 countries\, 38 states and 9 Canadian provinces\, and has authored over 80 key reference works on human-animal interactions and violence prevention. \nHe co-founded the National Link Coalition\, the National Animal Control Association\, and the Colorado and New Jersey humane federations. He has served with the AVMA\, the ASPCA\, American Humane\, the Delta Society\, the Animals & Society Institute\, the National Sheriffs Association\, the National Coalition on Violence Against Animals\, the National District Attorneys Association\, the Academy on Violence & Abuse\, and the American Association of Human-Animal Bond Veterinarians. He received a Lifetime Achievement Award from New Jersey Child Assault Prevention. \nWebsite:  https://justiceclearinghouse.com/webinar/improving-public-safety-by-stopping-animal-cruelty-the-link/

SUMMARY:Webinar - 6/17/20 - The Nose Knows: Or Does It? How Drugs Affect Scenting Ability in Dogs - ASPCAPro
DESCRIPTION:Nosework is an amazing sport/activity for shelter dogs – pet owners are becoming involved in this training in record numbers.  It uses positive reinforcement\, helps dogs to develop confidence and optimism and doesn’t require dogs to interact with each other to be successful. \nEvery day more dogs are being used by government agencies to find drugs\, explosives\, human remains\, and other animal species. At the same time\, pet owners have discovered the sport of canine nose work and are enjoying the benefits of this engaging and stimulating activity. \nThere is much we do not know about the canine olfaction system and what factors may influence a dog’s ability to perform scent work appropriately. \nThis webinar will examine the canine olfaction system and examine various drugs that may\, or may not\, affect scenting ability. \n\nSuited For\n\nVeterinarians and veterinary technicians \n\n\n\nCredits\n\nThe live webinar and post-webinar online course are RACE-approved and good for one hour of free CE for veterinarians and veterinary technicians. Courses meet the requirements of RACE hours of continuing education credit for veterinarians and veterinary technicians in jurisdictions which recognize AAVSB’s RACE approval. \n\nREGISTER:  https://www.aspcapro.org/training/webinar/nose-knows-or-does-it-how-drugs-affect-scenting-ability-dogs

SUMMARY:Webinar - 6/18/20 - Dr. Ellen Lindell - Separation Anxiety: Breakthrough Research (registration fee for webinar) - FDSA
DESCRIPTION:Date: Thursday\, June 18\, 2020 \nTime: 3pm Pacific Time (Click here for time at FDSA (Pacific Time).\nFee: $19.95 – Registration required PRIOR to scheduled presentation time. \nThe term “separation anxiety” is familiar to most people who share their lives with dogs. It has been defined as a condition in which a behavior is exhibited when a dog is not able to access a preferred person. \nRegardless of the specific behavior — urination\, destruction of furniture\, or demolition of doorways — the “diagnosis” would be the same. New research suggests that these behaviors are not the same at all\, and might therefore need to be treated differently. This webinar will discuss some current perspectives on this disturbing condition and introduce new concepts for management. \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://www.fenzidogsportsacademy.com/index.php/self-study/webinars

SUMMARY:California Shelters - CASCAR Weekly COVID-19 Check-In Call - link in CA Group Activity Feed
DESCRIPTION:Posting:  6/19/20 \nToday is Juneteenth\, also known as Freedom Day\, a day to commemorate the end of slavery in the United States. This year\, many Americans are observing the holiday by not only reflecting how far we’ve come\, but by taking stock of how far we have left to go in the fight against inequality. \nEarlier this month our program shared our commitment to doing that soul-searching work with you\, our sheltering community\, including the specific commitment to engage in anti-racist learning and to create a space for you to learn and share alongside us if you so desire. \nNext week on Tuesday June 23rd at 10:00 am\, KSMP is hosting our first call to talk about what this moment in our history could mean for us in California animal sheltering should we rise to meet this national call to action with open minds and hearts.  \nJose Ocano  (erstwhile Pacific Region Director and now Senior Director of Culture and Talent for Best Friends) and Dr. Jyothi Robertson will be joining us to facilitate the discussion. Also joining us will be special guest James Evans\, long time animal welfare leader and president of Companions and Animals for Reform and Equity (CARE). \nIf you are interested in joining the conversation\, please use the zoom link below. \nhttps://sheltermedicine.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJQtdO-srDItyMz7xy-ZsncbcFa6s8kKZg \nAfter registering\, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting. \nHope to see you there! \nTeam KSMP

SUMMARY:Webinar - 6/23/20 - Revolutionizing Your Data Entry Game to Save More Lives\, Money\, & More! - PetPoint
DESCRIPTION:The animal welfare industry now knows that data-driven decision-making is advantageous\, but did you know that efficient data entry can also have tremendous benefits? When faced with choosing between devoting time and resources to animal care versus a seemingly mundane task like entering data\, the choice seems obvious. However\, modernizing our data entry methods and prioritizing real-time data entry creates efficiencies that allow shelter staff to spend more time caring for animals and increase organizational success. \nIn this webinar\, members from our Pethealth Team and animal welfare leaders will highlight how technological efficiencies and updates increase staff morale\, customer satisfaction\, and lifesaving impact. You will also learn how paper-lite operations are investments in emergency preparedness and environmental responsibility and how to foster team buy-in. In this post Covid-19 world of economic and social distancing challenges\, efficiency matters now more than ever. \nREGISTRATION LINK:  https://register.gotowebinar.com/register/8584895937756743440
