SUMMARY:Online Conference - 11/4/21 to 11/5/21 - Canadian Violence Link Conference - Humane Canada (fee applies)
DESCRIPTION:Animal abuse often occurs before or alongside the abuse of people. This is known as the Violence Link. In a social system that is over taxed and underfunded\, the sector marginalizes animal welfare even though evidence shows there is greater benefit in acting holistically\, thereby providing better support for victims and reducing the vulnerability of animals and people. \nThe Canadian Violence Link Conference is an innovative\, ground-breaking event that examines the link between interpersonal abuse and animal abuse\, looking at the vulnerabilities in both populations and how they intersect. This biennial conference brings together criminal justice system stakeholders that work to prevent and address violence against people or animals for cross-sectoral training on how to collaborate and stop the cycle of violence. \n\n\nWhat to Expect\nThe National Violence Link Conference is an opportunity for stakeholders whose work intersects the Violence Link to gather\, learn and network. You will have the opportunity to deepen your understanding of the Violence Link and learn about the latest trends and intervention strategies designed to end the cycle of violence. This two-day conference will feature interactive\, engaging sessions where you can network with professionals in your region\, learn how to break down silos and build important relationships that will assist you in your day to day work. \n\n\nLearning and Networking Opportunities\n\nSkills to examine the correlation between human vulnerability and animal vulnerability\nAn understanding of the root causes of animal abuse and its connection to interpersonal and societal violence\nAn ability to identify the indicators of interpersonal violence and the steps to responding\nAn ability to identify the indicators of animal abuse and the steps to investigation and prosecution of these crimes\nThe opportunity to create new networks and relationship that will enhance your work toward ending violence\nThe opportunity to explore community-level partnerships and collaborations\n\nWEBSITE LINK:  https://humanecanada.swoogo.com/cjsr/1253225

SUMMARY:Webinar - 11/4/21 - The Hidden Life of Behavior Chains: Breaking\, Repairing\, and Maintaining Behavior Sequences - FDSA (fee applies)
DESCRIPTION:Behavior chains are wonderfully simple–just use cues to reinforce cued behaviors–yet it’s so easy to get drawn into complexities. Especially when things start to go wrong\, we can get caught up in superstitions or wishful thinking (“If we just keep doing it\, he’ll start to get it right! Any moment now!”). \nLet’s talk about the care and feeding of behavior chains\, how to maintain them reliably and how to repair them efficiently when something goes wrong. We’ll even discuss when we might want to break them\, and of course how to build strong chains when we want to keep them. \nBy the end of this session\, you will know how to identify the broken link in a chain (which may not be the one which looks broken)\, how to keep chains reliable\, and how to test your chain before you assemble it. \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://www.fenzidogsportsacademy.com/index.php/self-study/webinars

SUMMARY:Online Event – 11/10/21 – Maddie’s® Candid Conversation with Dr. Michael J. Blackwell\, DVM\, MPH – Maddie’s Fund
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for an open\, informal 60-minute conversation and Q+A with Dr. Michael J. Blackwell\, DVM\, MPH. \nAs the Director of the Program for Pet Health Equity\, College of Social Work at the University of Tennessee\, Dr. Blackwell’s self-professed mission is to improve access to veterinary care\, especially for families with limited means. He also chairs the Access to Veterinary Care Coalition. \nIn this discussion with Maddie’s Fund Executive Leadership Team member Mary Ippoliti-Smith\, Dr. Blackwell reflects on growing up in the segregated south and his eye-opening moment when the critical connection between humans and animals became his life calling. \nDr. Blackwell made history as the first veterinarian to be appointed chief of staff for the Office of the Surgeon General. His professional accomplishments\, which span private practice\, public health\, and education\, exemplify the vital roles of veterinarians in society. \nHis numerous awards and recognitions – among them the U.S. Public Health Service Distinguished Service Medal (which is the highest personal honor award) – include Maddie’s Fund’s’ 2020 Avanzino Leadership Award for his outstanding dedication to the human-animal bond. \nAfter the live discussion\, continue the conversation with Dr. Blackwell on Maddie’s Pet Forum: https://maddies.fund/candidconvodrblackwell \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://maddies.fund/DrBlackwellRegister

SUMMARY:Webinar - 11/10/21 - Webinar: Medical Mimics in Dogs: When Behavioral Symptoms are the Tip of the Iceberg - ACVB (fee applies)
DESCRIPTION:Behavioral symptoms are often the first signs of illness owners notice. When those symptoms look like biting\, panic disorders\, compulsive behaviors\, and many others it can be tempting to call in the veterinary psychiatry team. However\, many underlying medical conditions can cause similar changes in behavior. Come to this lecture to learn how to identify when a patient’s behavioral symptoms require further medical diagnostics. \nDr. E’Lise Christensen DVM is a board-certified veterinary behaviorist and an international lecturer and author. Dr. C received her Doctor of Veterinary Medicine from Iowa State University in 2002. She first became interested in veterinary behavior as a high school student when she worked at a veterinary practice and began training animals for pet therapy at a local substance abuse facility. While in veterinary school she researched separation anxiety in shelter dogs\, was an assistant trainer at an animal shelter\, and studied with numerous board-certified veterinary behaviorists. \nAfter veterinary school Dr. C began a rotating small animal internship at SouthPaws Veterinary Referral Center in Springfield\, Virginia. While working there she continued her studies in veterinary behavior. She practiced feline-only medicine in Arlington\, Virginia and general medicine in Bloomingdale\, New Jersey before entering the Behavior Residency Program at Cornell University in 2004. During her residency she researched the behavior of dogs\, cats\, and horses and treated behavioral problems in a number of different species. Her most cited research involved evaluating the efficacy of canine temperament tests in the shelter system. \nDr. C is board-certified by the American College of Veterinary Behaviorists and a member of the American Veterinary Society of Animal Behavior (AVSAB) Speaker’s Bureau and the American Veterinary Medical Association. \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://register.gotowebinar.com/register/1359880797510638091
