This happens for a couple of reasons: firstly\, behaviors are much more noticeable than the emotions that drive them; secondly\, from the human perspective the behavior is the problem\, not the emotion. From the dog’s perspective\, however\, the emotion is the problem\, not the behavior!It is true that respondent conditioning and operant conditioning occur almost simultaneously\, which results in an interplay between emotions and what the dog learns from punishers and reinforcers. Because of this interplay\, we prioritize the “get the behavior” approach. But how much faster could a behavior problem be solved if we prioritized the “change the emotion” approach? Let’s remember that emotional states are antecedent stimuli\, that motivation is an emotional process\, and that emotional responses are more immediate than thought-out ones.This webinar will revisit respondent techniques such as classical extinction\, systematic desensitization and counter-conditioning\, as well as explain how to apply them effectively taking different variables into account. \nLearning Objectives \n\nUnderstand the impact of emotions on behavior.\nBecome aware of emotional states as antecedent stimuli.\nLearn how motivation contributes towards reinforced behaviors not being displayed and punished behaviors being displayed.\nLearn why emotional responses are more immediate than though-out ones.\nUnderstand classical extinction and how to apply it\, reinstatement of an extinguished response\, renewal and spontaneous recovery.\nLearn the various types of counter conditioning and how to apply them effectively.\nDevelop skills to ensure a smooth desensitization process.\nAvoid the pitfalls of flooding.\n\n\n\nAbout Your Presenter \n       \nAlexandra Santos is a professional canine behavior consultant and trainer\, with formal education through The Animal Care College in the U.K. where she graduated with honors for the Diploma of Advanced Canine Psychology\, and through The Companion Animal Sciences Institute where she graduated with distinction for the Diploma of Advanced Dog Training. \nShe is the author of the books “Puppy Problems”\, “Puppy Training: How to house train your puppy effectively”\, “How to leash train your dog and enjoy walking him”\, “O meu cão e eu”\, “Cão educado\, dono feliz” (published in Portugal)\, and has also authored and co-authored several articles for the Journal of Applied Companion Animal Behavior and the International Institute for Applied Companion Animal Behavior. \nAlexandra lives and works in Lisbon\, Portugal\, as a guest professor at Universidade Lusófona de Humanidades e Tecnologias and provides individual coaching for dogs and their people. She has been a presenter at several seminars in Portugal and Brazil on positive reinforcement-based training and regularly presents webinars for the Pet Professional Guild. \n\n\nWEBSITE LINK:  https://petprofessionalguild.com/event-3909932 URL:https://www.sheltermedportal.com/event/webinar-11-3-20-revisiting-respondent-techniques-change-the-behavior-by-changing-the-emotions-ppg-fee-applies/ LOCATION:Virtual CATEGORIES:Webinar ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.sheltermedportal.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/dog-973883_640.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20201105T093000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20201105T103000 DTSTAMP:20260402T205627 CREATED:20201102T163016Z LAST-MODIFIED:20201102T175833Z UID:10000734-1604568600-1604572200@www.sheltermedportal.com SUMMARY:CASCAR Zoom Call for California Shelters – 11/5/20 – Office Hours: What's Next? – CASCAR – UC Davis KSMP DESCRIPTION:Nope\, we haven’t forgotten.

In areas with little capacity for local adoptions\, sheltering organizations have started investigating whether international pet adoption might be a viable option to increase their live release rates. As a result\, thousands of dogs and cats are being transported every year from places like Southeast Asia into adoptive homes in the US and Canada. This practice\, while a life-saving mechanism for many animals\, is not with inherent risks and controversy. The recent COVID pandemic has also heightened concerns regarding animal transport and disease importation. This presentation will discuss current trends in international companion animal transport\, risks of importation to both animal welfare and public health\, diseases of concern\, and recommendations to mitigate the risk of unintentional infectious disease introduction and transmission. \n\nKatherine Polak\, DVM\, MPH\, MS\, DACVPM\, DABVP (Shelter Medicine Practice)\nHead of Stray Animal Care – Southeast Asia\, FOUR PAWS International\nhttps://www.katherinepolakdvm.work/\n​​​​​​​Dr. Katherine Polak is a veterinarian dedicated to improving animal welfare in Southeast Asia\, and in limited-resourced communities around the world.

Not surprisingly\, clean mechanics are the key! We’ll train both cues without causing frustration or confusion. There will be simple step-by-step instructions. You can follow the steps at home in a very small space\, with no special equipment.
