SUMMARY:Webinar - 7/28/21 - Stress\, Recuperation Rates and Elizabethan Collars - Let's Smash the 'Cone of Shame' and Replace it with the 'Sunflower Shield' - PPG (fee applies)
DESCRIPTION:After surgery\, a pet is often sent home wearing an Elizabethan collar – also referred to as an E collar\, Buster collar\, or plastic cone – to prevent licking and chewing of the incision which could cause irritation\, infection\, and delayed healing.  Could non-compliance lead to delayed healing?  Could the cone itself lead to extended recovery time if the pet experiences fear\, anxiety\, or stress while wearing the cone? And\, if so\, what can we do to about? \nJoin the presenter as she delves into scientific\, observational\, and anecdotal evidence regarding the impact of owner-compliance and stress on recovery rates and provides a solution to help make wearing of the Elizabethan collar less stressful for the dog\, pet guardians and veterinarians. \nLearning objectives: \n\nUnderstand how fear\, anxiety\, and stress may directly or indirectly affect wound healing.\nUnderstand the potential negative impact of Elizabethan collars on animal welfare.\nLearn how non-compliance of Elizabethan collar wearing may lead to delayed recuperation rates.\nUnderstand the potential for delayed healing which may be experienced by some dogs wearing Elizabethan collars.\nLearn what trainers\, guardians\, vets\, and pet care providers can do to help take the fear\, anxiety\, and stress\, out of the Elizabethan collar\, setting the scene for a happier pet and the potential for a speedier recovery rate.\n\nCEUs: PPAB 1\, IAABC 1\, KPA 1 \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://petprofessionalguild.com/event-4178769

SUMMARY:Webinar - 7/29/21 - The Adolescent Period of Development and Its Implications for Behavior/Dog-Owner - PPG (fee applies)
DESCRIPTION:Whilst knowledge of dog behavior during adolescence arguably exists in the public and professional domain\, the period of adolescence in dogs and other companion animals is vastly understudied within the scientific community. \nAdolescence is a relatively long period of development during which a juvenile becomes an adult and is marked by intense neurological and hormonal changes. Within the domestic dog\, adolescence is typically considered to begin with the onset of pubertal development at around 6 months of age (puberty is thought to begin between 6-9 months in males and 6-16 months of age in females) and continues until behavioral/social maturity is reached. There is no precisely agreed age at which an individual dog can be considered behaviorally mature\, but dogs aged younger than two years have the shortest memory spans and certain trait level behavioral changes still occur between 18-24 months of age in border collie dogs. Therefore\, dogs aged under 2 years of age are likely to still be undergoing adolescent behavioral development. \nThis period of development is likely to be a particularly vulnerable time for dog-owner relationships\, and for shaping the long-term behavior of the developing animal. In this session\, the presenter will provide an overview of the neurological and behavioural changes that mammals undergo during adolescence\, along with highlighting the potential implications. \nAlthough the particular focus of this session will be on dogs\, much of the theory and evidence behind it should be applicable across all mammalian species\, and much of the background provided will be in general terms\, so the session should be applicable for anyone interested simply in mammalian behavior development. \nCEUs: PPAB 1\, CCPDT 1\, IAABC 1\, KPA 1 \n  \nAbout Your Presenter \nDr. Naomi Harvey is a zoologist with a specialty in applied animal behavior and veterinary health and welfare. Since November 2019\, she has been working at the Dogs Trust as a research manager in canine behavior and she holds an honorary position as an associate professor of companion animal behavior and welfare at the University of Nottingham. With a BSc in zoology from Cardiff University and a PhD in applied canine behavior from the University of Nottingham\, Dr. Harvey has a particular specialty in designing and validating methods for securing robust and valid measures of animal behavior from their guardians. \nShe also has expertise in veterinary epidemiology\, having successfully designed and led the Itchy Dog project to investigate the environmental and genetic risk factors for canine atopic dermatitis and its impact on dog behavior. Her research interests lie in improving the evidence base for issues affecting companion animal welfare within the fields of veterinary medicine and clinical animal behavior\, to better inform how we manage and treat the animals in our care. Her PhD focused on how behavior develops in juvenile guide dogs\, and as such\, she has a particular interest in the adolescent phase of development and what it could mean for our pets. \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://petprofessionalguild.com/event-4361943

SUMMARY:Webinar - 7/29/21 - Denise Fenzi - Calming Games for High Arousal - FDSA (fee applies)
DESCRIPTION:You love your dog’s enthusiasm for the reinforcer but you don’t love the frantic ball of fur energy that comes out in its presence. You love your dog’s drive for work but sometimes you wish she took a day off once in a while. You love to train your dog at home but when you go out\, it’s as if the whole world is a trigger for high arousal.  \nSound familiar? \nEasily aroused dogs are awesome dogs with fantastic working capacity but sometimes we wish they could self-regulate better. Self regulation is necessary to live peacefully in our world\, and if you have goals for competition\, they are essential in order to perform with a clear head. Plus\, it’s kinder to the dog. Who wants to exist in a state of overarousal all the time? \nSo what can you do? You can learn to provide appropriate outlets for that energy\, and give your dog the tools they need to relax (or escalate) their arousal as appropriate. Here’s where Calming Games for High Arousal come in! We hope you’ll join Denise Fenzi for this webinar to find out about the skills and games you can play with your dog to raise and lower arousal. An essential skill for both life and sports! \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://www.fenzidogsportsacademy.com/index.php/fdsa-calendar

SUMMARY:Webinar - 8/2/21 - The Future of Volunteers in Sheltering\, Part 3 - Adisa
DESCRIPTION:When the pandemic hit\, many animal organizations either dramatically shifted the work of volunteers or put volunteer programs on hold altogether. With more and more people being vaccinated every day and glimmers of normal\, every-day life beginning to return\, what will this mean for the re-engagement of volunteers in our organizations? In this highly-interactive session\, we will explore the needs and issues you—as a leader of volunteers—need to plan for and brainstorm strategies for re-engaging volunteers safely while reimagining the roles volunteers play in our organizations to ensure they are best positioned to help us meet our missions. \nJoin your colleagues from animal organizations across the country and beyond for a highly interactive\, collaborative session as we explore what volunteer involvement in the animal welfare field looks like post-pandemic. The session will include: \n\nA “state of the union” on volunteer engagement for the animal welfare sector—including what shelters experienced\, where they are now in terms of reopening and having volunteers on site\, the challenges still being overcome\, and lessons learned.\nA case study from The Anti-Cruelty Society in Chicago on how they navigated the pandemic and have begun a multi-phase reopening and reintegration of volunteers.\nStrategies for navigating change in your organization and tips for reimaging the future of volunteer engagement.\n\nPlease note: The majority of the session will include expert presentations and large group discussion. Towards the end of the session\, we will offer breakouts on topics chosen by participants to allow for more personal networking and small-group discussions. For those not interested in breakouts (or experiencing Zoom fatigue!)\, you are welcome to simply listen during the breakout or leave the session at that time. \nPresenters and Facilitators: \nBetsy McFarland is a principal consultant for Adisa and leads Energize\, a program providing training\, resources and consulting in volunteerism. Betsy is a strategist\, facilitator\, and problem-solver who has forged a unique professional niche focused on empowering staff and volunteers committed to tackling challenging societal issues. She brings 25 years of experience in animal protection\, including 18 years at The Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) where she served as vice president of the Companion Animals section. She has extensive experience growing volunteers within organizations large and small. She is a Certified Animal Welfare Administrator (CAWA) through the Association of Animal Welfare Advancement (AAWA) and a trained facilitator through Georgetown University’s Institute for Transformational Leadership. \n Lydia Krupinski is the Vice President of Mission Impact where she oversees The Anti-Cruelty Society’s humane education\, community outreach\, volunteer\, and adoption placement efforts. As the Society’s Chief Program Officer\, Lydia is leading the charge in expanding the organization’s community of caring by supporting and inspiring animal lovers within and beyond the walls of the organization. Whether it’s facilitating adoption matches\, equipping fosters and volunteers\, responding to community pet needs\, or mentoring the next generation of animal advocates\, Lydia and her team are meaningfully engaging the public in exciting and innovative ways. \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://adisagroup.com/workshops/

SUMMARY:Webinar - 8/3/21 - Did They Actually Live Happily Ever After? Debunking Translocation Myths - NACA/Justice Clearinghouse
DESCRIPTION:It’s commonly thought that removing wild animals from our backyards and neighborhoods and releasing them into seemingly suitable habitat miles away is a humane approach for solving conflicts with wildlife. But is it actually? This webinar will delve into what truly happens to wild animals after they’re trapped and moved out of the home ranges they are familiar with and into unknown habitat. We will also discuss strategies that offer sound alternatives to capture and removal. \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  \n  \n \nFounded in 1954\, the Humane Society of the United States and its affiliates around the globe fight the big fights to end suffering for all animals. Together with millions of supporters\, the HSUS takes on puppy mills\, factory farms\, trophy hunts\, animal testing and other cruel industries\, and together with its affiliates\, rescues and provides direct care for over 100\,000 animals every year. The HSUS works on reforming corporate policy\, improving and enforcing laws and elevating public awareness on animal issues. \n  \n\n\nPresenters:\n \nDave Pauli started his animal career in 1979 by opening a wildlife rescue business in Madison\, Wisconsin called Humane Animal Controls\, Inc.    Since that time he also served as a Superintendent of Animal Control (Billings Animal Shelter)\, Director of bi-county Humane Society in Eastern Washington (Tri-Cities) and for the past 29 years as a field responder/director for The Humane Society of The United States. \nDave has responded to domestic animal/exotic/wild animal projects in all 50 states and two dozen countries. Dave currently responds to natural disasters\, major cruelty and hoarding cases\, and participates in Chemical immobilization\, and immunocontraception projects for deer and horses. He also participates in volume capture projects for prairie dogs\, feral dogs and cats\, and many other species. He also supports and advises all HSUS Wildlife\, Animal Rescue Team\, Humane Society International and the Wildlife Land Trust teams with field projects or programs.  He is an HSUS point person on Wild Pigs\, Prairie Dogs\, Turtles and Tortoises\, Florida Gopher Tortoises\, Trapping Issues and Wildlife Contraception. Dave serves on the boards of six NGO’s and serves on the USDA Wild Pig Task Force and Montana Fish Wildlife & Parks Species Classification and Trapping Advisory committees. \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://www.justiceclearinghouse.com/webinar/did-they-actually-live-happily-ever-after-debunking-translocation-myths/
