SUMMARY:Webinar - 5/27/21 - Overcoming Adoption Barriers: Where Marketing Meets Policy - American Pets Alive!
DESCRIPTION:The intersection of marketing and adoption policies is where the magic happens for reducing barriers to adoption. The role of marketing is to help define our programs for the community\, communicate how to use our services\, and advertise how people can get involved. But great marketing alone can’t increase adoptions if the experience of adopting isn’t supported by good customer service\, open adoption policies\, and solution-driven programs. This webinar looks at how our marketing efforts\, from our social media posts to our adoption bios\, can welcome more community members to our mission. We’ll also discuss how our adoption policies can support this mindset of welcoming our entire community while reducing barriers and saving more pets. \nJoin Clare Callison\, our Maddie’s® Director of National Pet Supply and Demand\, and Caitlin Quinn\, Director of Operations at HeARTs Speak\, for this insightful webinar on May 27 at 5pm CDT. \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/3816189358603/WN_9qb1cBvMQgmJhJVLEqcxPw

SUMMARY:Webinar - 5/27/21 - Pet Stores\, Puppy Mills and Local Action to End the Problem - Texas Unites (fee applies)
DESCRIPTION:Over 300 communities\, including several in Texas\, have banned the sale of puppy mill dogs in pet stores.

Passing a local ordinance\, even if your community does not currently have a puppy selling pet store\, is a vital step in helping bring about an end to this cruel business model. \nYou will hear from two speakers who have decades of lobbying experience and have been at the forefront of this campaign. You’ll learn how to get an ordinance drafted\, introduced and enacted into law. You’ll learn what hurdles that puppy mill lobbyist will throw in your path\, and how to overcome them. This workshop is a must for those who are passionate about ending puppy mills. \nPresenters \nLauren Loney\, Texas State Director\, State Affairs\, The Humane Society of the United States\nAmy Jesse\, Public Policy Director\, Stop Puppy Mills Campaign\, The Humane Society of the United States \nConnect to this webinar on Your Conference Connection Page.  *Password required*\nPassword is provided with registration confirmation. \n***** \nLike this topic?  Register Today! \nYour $49 registration fee provides access to all webinars May 19 through July 1. \nAll sessions are CE approved through DSHS and AAWA with selected sessions approved through TBVME. \nRegistration will remain open throughout the Virtual Learning Series.

SUMMARY:Webinar - 5/27/21 - Refresh Your Compassionate Heart: An Everyday Tool for You and Your Team - Texas Unites (fee applies)

SUMMARY:Webinar - 5/26/21 - They're Never Too Old! Senior Patient Anesthesia and Perioperative Management - Fear Free

SUMMARY:Online Event – 5/25/21 – Maddie’s® Candid Conversations Series – Dr. Jyothi V. Robertson\, Shelter Strategies – Maddie’s Fund
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an open\, informal 30-minute conversation and Q+A with Dr. Jyothi V. Robertson\, President and Founder of JVR Shelter Strategies. \nIn this discussion with Maddie’s Fund Executive Leadership Team member Mary Ippoliti-Smith\, Dr. Robertson postulates how different fields (environment\, education\, etc.) are interwoven\, and that relying on an animal-centric focus keeps us from examining some of the systemic\, root causes of the issues we face. Bringing new conversations to animal welfare can lead to more diversity\, inclusion\, equity that will offer a fresh perspective on how an individual may face multiple types of overlapping discrimination and how that affects our work and success. \nAfterwards\, continue the conversation with Dr. Robertson on Maddie’s Pet Forum. \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://maddiesfund-org.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZYscu-qrj0oHdTfvmmzypVmIwzFVQ39Ak78

SUMMARY:Webinar - 5/19/21 - Bringing Your New Dog Home – How to Promote a Successful Transition to Family Life! - PPG (fee applies)
DESCRIPTION:Did you know that it can take anywhere from a couple of days to several weeks for you and your new dog to adjust to each other? \nAlthough you have chosen this individual to join your family\, the dog does not know that what is happening is something good\, that he has a new family home. The dog is likely to be fearful\, anxious\, or stressed. This might manifest itself as lethargy or over-excitement. The dog might engage in distance-increasing behaviors. Triggers might stack up\, making it difficult for the dog to cope. \nIn this presentation we are going to cover DogNostics’ recommendations for successfully introducing a new dog into your family\, helping ensure that the transition into your home is as stress-free as possible for both you and your new family member. \nAlthough the presentation is aimed at pet dog owners\, it will also help pet professionals provide guidance to their clients\, and shelters provide guidance to new adoptees. \nAbout Your Presenter\n\nLouise Stapleton-Frappell – B.A. Hons\, PCT- A\, PCBC-A\, CAP3\, CTDI\, DN-FSG2\, DN-CPCT2\, CWRI\nLouise Stapleton-Frappell\, Partner and Faculty Member of DogNostics Career Center and Board Member of The Pet Professional Guild\, is a Professional Canine Trainer and Behavior Consultant – Accredited by The Pet Professional Accreditation Board.

SUMMARY:CASCAR Zoom Call for California Shelters - 5/18/21 - Dave Hachey & Dr. Lucas Pantaleon  - CASCAR - UC Davis KSMP
DESCRIPTION:We have an interesting little treat for this coming CASCAR call Tuesday May 18th at 1 pm – we will be hearing from our friends Dave Hachey and Dr. Lucas Pantaleon\, part of the team that brought us Rescue\, aka accelerated hydrogen peroxide\, about a new air purifier they are helping bring to the market. Given the way Rescue transformed shelter sanitation in many places\, when Dave says he’s on to something we tend to pay attention over here at team KSMP. They have a little presentation about the product and then we will have Q and A. This is not a sales pitch\, really intended to be an informative exchange so we can ask questions and understand the science and potential of a novel approach to pathogen inactivation in the air. I hope we might start seeing some of the technology in other congregate spaces as well so we might as well get a jump on learning about it! \nThat may not take up all the time we have\, in which case we can talk about whatever is on folks’ minds or kick back early. One thing that is on my mind and that I hope to talk about in more depth in an upcoming CASCAR call is the hints of increasing dog intake/in-shelter populations that have been mentioned on this list. If this is something you’re seeing\, I’d love to hear about it. If this is something you’re NOT seeing\, I’d also love to hear about it! I know there’s been a lot of anxiety\, which I share\, about reopening and seeing shelters get inundated to pre-pandemic levels or beyond. On the other hand\, I know not all reopening is necessarily a negative so I’d really appreciate getting some of the nuances and reasons behind what is happening out there now. \nCASCAR room link: https://sheltermedicine.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJQtdO-srDItyMz7xy-ZsncbcFa6s8kKZg
