This data-driven shift away from ‘poke-and-prod’ type tests has created some fantastic opportunities for animal management and sheltering professionals to improve not just their behaviour assessments\, but also the level of care provided to animals\, staff safety\, and appropriate outcomes for the dogs themselves. \nCome join Trish and Di to find out more about the research underpinning this seismic shift in procedure\, and how you can move towards a more modern and holistic model for assessing dog behaviour in shelters. \nYou will learn: \n\nSummary of recent research findings relevant to animal behaviour assessments in applied environments\nBasic principles in canine behaviour and personality assessment\nHow to implement a ‘data-gathering’ continuous assessment process in your facility\, using fast-track and slow-track processes. We will include some tips and tricks that we’ve learned along the way\, and help you improve flow and outcome.\n\n  \nThis is part of a two-part series:\n\nNovember 11: Canine Communication in the Field and Shelter\nDec 2: Assessing Dog Behaviour in Shelter Settings (this webinar)\n\n\n\n\n  \n\n \nThe Australian Institute of Animal Management (AIAM) is the national peak body representing Local Government Animal Management Officers. The AIAM Committee consists of a wide range of professionals engaged in the various aspects of animal management. \nAIAM seeks to support those engaged in the business of animal management\, and the function itself\, by providing training and information\, opportunities for networking and collaboration\, and by encouraging the use of best practice policy and practices. AIAM promotes consistency of legislation\, consultation in the creation of legislation and workplace processes\, and healthy relationships with external stakeholders and the community. AIAM supports cross-sector collaboration and co-design of projects and initiatives. \n  \n\nPresenters: \n\n\nTrish McMillan holds a Master of Science degree in animal behavior\, and is a certified professional dog trainer\, certified dog behavior consultant\, and associate certified cat behavior consultant.  She has been involved in the animal rescue and sheltering world since the mid-1990’s\, starting out as a volunteer and working her way up to director of animal behavior. She worked for the ASPCA for nearly eight years; first as Director of Animal Behavior at their NYC shelter\, then as a behaviorist on their field team\, helping assess and rehabilitate dogs from cruelty cases\, dogfighting and hoarding situations\, then she joined the Shelter Research and Development team. \nTrish currently does animal behavior consulting near Asheville\, North Carolina\, working with dogs\, cats and horses. Her farm\, Pibble Hill\, is home to a happy herd of animals of five species. Trish speaks and consults nationally and internationally on animal sheltering issues\, dog\, cat\, and horse behavior\, dog aggression\, and defensive handling. Her online shelter dog behavior offerings have helped students from around the world apply best practices at their respective shelters and rescues. \n\n  \n\n  \n\n\nDr Diana Rayment holds a PhD in Canine Behaviour and a Bachelor of Animal Science. Her primary research area is canine behaviour and assessments in applied settings\, like animal shelters. She has also worked in a variety of academic and industry settings\, including as a TAFE and university educator\, as an applied scientist studying companion animal welfare and behaviour and working dog assessments\, a dog trainer\, a shelter nurse and most recently\, leading the behaviour team at the Greyhound Adoption Program Victoria. Diana is now working to integrate and improve animal welfare and animal management practices in Australia through a variety of roles\, including project management and staff and volunteer training at Second Chance Animal Rescue. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \n  \n  \n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\nWEBSITE LINK:  https://www.justiceclearinghouse.com/webinar/assessing-dog-behaviour-in-shelter-settings/ URL:https://www.sheltermedportal.com/event/webinar-12-2-20-assessing-dog-behaviour-in-shelter-settings-naca-justice-clearinghouse/ LOCATION:Virtual CATEGORIES:Webinar ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://www.sheltermedportal.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Dog-Behavior-AIAM-148872464.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20201203T093000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20201203T103000 DTSTAMP:20260403T153830 CREATED:20201201T011921Z LAST-MODIFIED:20201202T024804Z UID:10000774-1606987800-1606991400@www.sheltermedportal.com SUMMARY:CASCAR Zoom Call for California Shelters - 12/3/20 - The Four Rights - CASCAR - UC Davis KSMP DESCRIPTION:Join us for this week’s CASCAR discussion around the idea of empowering all shelters to provide animals in need within their communities with the Four Rights: the Right Care\, in the Right Place\, at the Right Time\, to the Right Outcome.
