SUMMARY:Webinar - 3/10/22 - Reactive Integration: Putting Pieces Together with Karen Deeds - FDSA (fee applies)
DESCRIPTION:An integrated approach for developing a behavior modification plan when working with fearful and reactive dogs. \nReactivity: The label given to dogs that present with growling\, barking\, lunging\, squealing\, jumping up and down\, or even redirecting to the leash or to the handler at the sight of a trigger\, whether that be another dog\, a person\, or anything else! \nWhen working with reactive dogs\, I believe in an integrated approach…Reinforcement strategies\, changing emotion\, teaching alternative behaviors\, impulse control that creates predictability\, confidence building\, and of course a vast array of behavior modification techniques is all part of the plan. In this way\, you can build a stronger foundation on which behavior modification can be applied. We all know that a weak foundation in anything\, a home\, a relationship\, dog sports\, or dog behavior\, can contribute to weakness in the long run. \nThis webinar will give an overview of the integrated approach taken for working with reactive and fearful dogs. \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://www.fenzidogsportsacademy.com/index.php/self-study/webinars

SUMMARY:Webinar - 3/10/22 - Making the Most of the Human End of the Leash: Mindset\, Mindfulness\, & More with Andrea Harrison - FDSA (fee applies)
DESCRIPTION:Setting your dog up for success in training\, dog sports and day-to-day challenges often means setting yourself up for success carefully and thoughtfully too. The really cool thing? The things we do to consciously improve our handling\, teachability and showing often have a positive fallout in our life too. In this thoughtful and far-reaching look at why our mental game matters and exploration of specific tools that will hone your skills Andrea looks at how brains work and how you can get yours working FOR you not against you. Why is far such a big block to progress\, what is flow? Why might someone meditate or tap? How do you pick the right tools for your situation? And much much more. Lots of training examples and photos and an opportunity for questions and discussion means that this webinar will have you excited about the work you want to do. Expect a surge in training and a boost in motivation after this one! \nPeople who take webinars with Andrea often comment that they rank among the best webinars they have ever taken (often much to their surprise). With decades of experience in dog and horse training and decades of training and experience working in mental health and education\, Andrea is uniquely positioned to help you make sense of your role in the wonderful things you want to do with your dog! Join her and find out for yourself why her webinars and classes are so popular. \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://www.fenzidogsportsacademy.com/index.php/self-study/webinars

SUMMARY:Webinar Series - 2/26/22\, 3/5/22\, and 3/12/22 - The Holy Trinity of Behavior\, Environment & Sociability Behind the Human-Canine Partnership - Puppyworks (fee applies)
DESCRIPTION:How the Holy Trinity of Behavior\, Environment & Sociability of dogs and humans creates a unique relationship which you can use to improve your time and activities together. \nMore than a webinar\, we’ll provide an interactive\, behind-closed-doors experience for attendees to see the interconnectedness of the Dog\, the Human & the Environment\, in part from attendee submitted videos. \nSession One: Saturday February 26\, 2022  ​- HOW YOUR BEHAVIOR MATTERS:\nHuman Sociability – Behavior\, Temperament\, Attitudes & Perception.\nWhat do you\, as a biological organism\, bring to the relationship? How the health and attitudes\, including human temperament of the handler (their own sociability) affect their dogs\, and how biological differences affect perception: for example: dogs hear many things (high frequency) that we do not; and dogs smell far more than we do\, smells that dogs never evolved to\, and that distract them or give them information we are not privy to. You see more 3D\, and you see colors they do not. \nWhat do you bring to the relationship as the trainer?\nAttitudes\, biases\, and experiences all affect the dog-human relationship: most importantly\, confirmation bias; and the brain’s tendency to search for the urgent over the important (crisis survival vs. long term). How human anxiety may inadvertently affect canine behavior. How training timing\, reactions and cognition delays\, all affect how you and your dog interact. \nThere is no other interspecies relationship on Earth like that of the dog and the human.\nNothing rivals the dogs’ co-evolution with humans and our species unparalleled willingness to sacrifice for them. That includes the ability to genetically modify dogs\, and to know what we can change and what we cannot\, money to fix ailing dogs\, to modify diets\, and to otherwise manipulate the interactions. We also created a partner that actively manipulates us. It is no coincidence that dog parks are at such an annoying frequency and look so darned cute to us. \nSession Two: Saturday March 5\, 2022  ​- WHY ENVIRONMENT MATTERS:\nHow Genetics\, Perceptions and Behaviors Interact with the Environment.\nThe environment messes with everything! Dogs and humans each take in the environment differently\, and the environment interacts with expression of our dog’s and our own genetic traits. \nHow the environment affects biology:\nWhat kinds of traits are inheritable and how much does environment affect them? In particular\, how much of your dog’s personality is fixed\, such as sociability or aggression or curiosity or trainability? How much does the environment affect your dog’s hormones that force its behaviors? Do dogs create pheromones that manipulate us? \nHome\, Sweet Home—from your dog’s viewpoint and yours. \nIt is important that your dog has a home\, right? But does your dog value or want the same things you want in a home? What would they pick if they had a choice? A place filled with couches? A few boulders with a hole underneath? How do they view their home? How different might your dog be if he or she lived with you in a completely different neighborhood\, or moved from a rural environment into the heart of a city or from your city to one on the other side of the globe? \nThe expanded environment—everything away from home. \nSure\, you and your dog love home. What changes when you leave with your dog\, and why you should care. Travel to you and travel to your dog are unlikely to be the same. You know you are off to camp in the mountains. How does your dog know it is not another trip to the vet to get stiches or a cast or… \nSession Three: Saturday March 12\, 2022  – SOCIABILITY IN DOGS:\nCanine Biology\, Behavior & Sociability.\nWhat limits\, capabilities\, and opportunities does the dog\, as a biological organism\, bring to the relationship? \n\nAges and stages of the dog\nWhy breed type matters\nWhy sociability matters.\n\nThere are many ways to assess sociability in shelter dogs\, but less proven ways of assessing it in owned dogs\, since the human-environment so confounds dog behaviors. Sue and Tim hope to get closer to measuring sociability in the owned dog during this webinar series!  And there may soon be genetic tests for sociability as well. \n\nAre we prioritizing sociability enough in breeding? How inheritable is sociability? How do we measure it?\nHow close are we to fully assessing the recent discovery of a dog genomic region matching one in humans who have a syndrome involving hyper-social behavior? Could this lead to more predictability of behavior in the future?\nWhy sociability is the best insurance policy\, given biological limits\, environmental uncertainties\, and humans…well…being human.\n\nWEBSITE LINK:  https://www.puppyworks.com/partnership

DESCRIPTION:In this two part webinar\, participants will learn Trauma-Informed Care principles and how to apply them internally with staff and volunteers\, and externally through engagement with their community. \nSession one: The foundations of trauma-informed organizations\nTrauma-informed approaches offer animal welfare organizations the possibility of increased resilience\, inclusion\, equity and staff well-being.

In this session\, participants will be invited to consider how understanding the stories and lived experience of underserved communities can improve our community support programs and advance our field’s justice\, equity\, diversity\, and inclusion efforts. \nSpeakers: Tramaine El-Amin and Sloane Hawes \n(Photo by Nicole Marie Thomas/For The HSUS) \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://humanepro.org/trainings/trauma-informed-care-animal-welfare-future-staff-and-community-wellbeing

SUMMARY:Webinar - 3/17/22 - What Vintage is that Hot Dog? Identifying High Value Reinforcers with Moira Hechenleitner - FDSA (fee applies)
DESCRIPTION:Do you wonder what’s your dog’s favorite food? Or favorite reinforcer of another type when food isn’t enough? Have you unsuccessfully tried to use food toys filled with peanut butter to work on challenging situations? Are you starting to believe that your dog might just not be food motivated when exposing him to more complex experiences and/or environments? Do you have a hard time identifying what your dog really wants? \nThe value of a reinforcement is often proportionally inverse to how challenging is a situation\, and there are not only individual preferences\, but also different perceptions of how challenging a determine stimulus can be. \nThrough a “treat tasting” you can objectively measure which foods are within the top five of your dog’s favorites\, and you can successfully and strategically use them to work on different situations\, not only enhancing the counter-conditioning process\, but also increasing the dog’s motivation. \nAnd by learning how to correctly use techniques such as desensitization and counter-conditioning\, and what food or reinforcer are appropriate for each case and situation you can avoid the risk of poisoning food\, and therefore increase the likelihood of success. \nWEBSITE LINK: https://www.fenzidogsportsacademy.com/index.php/self-study/webinars

SUMMARY:Webinar - 3/24/22 - Responding to Animal Crimes Through a Restorative Justice Approach - NACA/Justice Clearinghouse
DESCRIPTION:As a broad category of penological response that aims to repair the harms crime inflicts on victims\, hold offenders accountable\, and promote resilient communities\, restorative justice has venerable roots. Nonetheless\, the explicit application of restorative justice approaches within the USA’s criminal justice system is quite young – and all but unheard of as applied to crimes with animal victims: abuse\, neglect\, animal fighting\, and animal sexual exploitation. Join Animal Legal Defense Fund criminal justice attorneys for an exploration – rooted in emergent scholarship – of the role restorative justice could play in our legal system’s response to animal cruelty. \nThis session will begin by summarizing the history and current use of restorative justice in the context of the USA’s criminal justice system. Next\, we will examine the ways that a restorative justice framework focuses on animals as the inherent victims of animal cruelty—and therefore as the party who is most in need of an outcome that acknowledges their suffering and – to the extent possible – restores their well-being. Finally\, we will outline what a restorative justice framework might look like as applied to animal cruelty cases – and how it could be drawn on as an option impactful for victims\, offenders\, and communities\, building empathy\, reducing recidivism\, and increasing rehabilitation. \nPresenters\nJessica Chapman\nAs a Criminal Justice Program Fellow for the ALDF\, Jessica Chapman works with the department to address crimes against animals\, partnering with stakeholders across the criminal justice system to resolve both the impetus and impact of animal cruelty. \nJessica earned a B.A. from the University of California\, Berkeley where she double majored in Slavic Languages and Literature and Native American Studies (honors). She earned a J.D. (cum laude) from Michigan State University College of Law\, where Jessica received the 2020 Wanda Nash Award from the Animal Law Section of the Michigan State Bar. Jessica earned an Animal law L.L.M. (magna cum laude) from Lewis & Clark Law School. While at Lewis & Clark\, she was awarded the inaugural 2021 Outstanding Animal Law L.L.M. Graduate Award and earned placement in the Cornelius Honor Society. \nJessica shares her home with two dogs named Patch and Landa. The brothers enjoy hiking through mountains\, camping trips\, and discovering the world together. \nDavid Rosengard\nAs a senior staff attorney in the Animal Legal Defense Fund’s Criminal Justice Program\, David Rosengard works with stakeholders across the criminal justice system to pursue justice on behalf of animal cruelty victims. One of his focus areas is amicus briefs\, where he raises appellate-level arguments aimed at enabling courts to reach decisions that not only address the needs of the animals involved in individual cases\, but to also better position animals as a whole within the law. David additionally helms the Animal Legal Defense Fund’s groundbreaking work helping animals who have been harmed by criminal cruelty achieve the legal status of crime victims\, including efforts to expand Courtroom Animal Advocate Programs which allow pro bono attorneys and law students to act as counsel for those animal crime victims in court. \nDavid co-edited and contributed to the second edition of Animal Law in a Nutshell and has published law review articles aimed at assisting prisoners in securing vegan meals (“Three Hots and a Cot and a Lot of Talk”: Discussing Federal Rights-Based Avenues for Prisoner Access to Vegan Meals) as well as illuminating the critical impact legal recognition of animal sentience has on constitutional considerations (A Dog is Not a Stereo: The Role of Animal Sentience in Determining the Scope of Owner Privacy Interests Under Oregon Law). David also teaches animal law at his alma mater—Lewis & Clark Law School\, where he graduated twice with honors\, as both a J.D. and an Animal Law LL.M. student. While a student at Lewis & Clark Law School\, David clerked for the Center for Animal Law Studies\, Co-Directed L&C’s Student ALDF chapter\, worked in Kenya on wildlife and animal cruelty issues\, was an Animal Law Review Editor-in-Chief\, and represented the state of Oregon in criminal court on behalf of the Multnomah County District Attorney’s Office as a certified law student. \nPrior to embarking on his legal career\, David earned a B.A. with honors in History and Gender Studies from Claremont McKenna College\, and worked in higher education\, where he focused on sexual assault prevention and response\, peer counseling\, crisis management\, co-curricular education\, sex-blind housing programs\, and community justice. \nDavid lives in Saint Helens\, Oregon with his spouse and a bevy of rescue animals: two cats (Aldor and Papaya) and three dogs (Ace Octavus\, Ellie May\, and Puck). \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://www.justiceclearinghouse.com/webinar/responding-to-animal-crimes-through-a-restorative-justice-approach/
