SUMMARY:Webinar - 6/28/22 - Fancy Footwork: Practical Handling and Training Solutions for the Entire Shelter - Dogs Playing for Life
DESCRIPTION:While playgroups are the foundation of our shelter training program\, teaching shelter teams how to implement a generalized\, effective\, and enjoyable way to handle and train their dogs is another essential aspect of our canine programming! In this webinar\, we will teach the fundamentals of our “Fancy Footwork” techniques that focus on achieving good leash manners through the use of your FEET instead of your hands. Come learn this unique and highly effective approach that promotes dogs happily walking softly by your side\, offering tons of eye contact\, and wowing adopters! This new approach to leash work will enhance your handling skills and increase your ability to train ALL dogs\, even those that are highly aroused\, stressed\, fearful\, or not motivated by food\, all in an effort to improve quality of life and lifesaving for dogs living in shelters. \nAdditionally\, we will teach you how to implement our critically important kennel routines. The kennel areas of our nation’s shelters can be one of the most challenging and distressing environments that dogs–and their handlers–ever face. DPFL kennel routines have been developed and taught to shelters across the country in an effort to combat these challenges and to provide safer and more successful ways for dogs and people to maneuver through the kennels. \nThis is a 1.5-hour presentation followed by a Q&A session. This webinar will NOT be recorded and is scheduled on EASTERN TIME. \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_MvNzCQwzQ-a5ZeBnbVGw7g

SUMMARY:Webinar - 6/28/22 - Rescuing the “Rescuer”: The Challenging World of Rescue Hoarders - NACA/Justice Clearinghouse
DESCRIPTION:Animal Hoarding affects every city in America.  Rescue Hoarders can be especially challenging for jurisdictions to address. The community often formulates an opinion about these “Rescuers” before response agencies are even allowed to assess the situation. How often have you heard that\,”Their heart is too big\, or they’re doing the best they can\, or the animals are loved what more can  you want?”  This session will explore some tactics agencies charged with addressing rescue hoarders can employ in their community.  Whether you choose to address the issue now or not\, the problem does not go away.  In fact\, allowing rescue hoarders to operate without checks and balances only compounds an already complex problem.  If you’ve ever struggled to deal with a rescue hoarder in your community\, you won’t want to miss this session! \nPresenter \nBased out of Daytona Beach\, Florida\, Adam Leath is the Director of Volusia County Animal Services. He investigates and responds to situations involving animal victims of natural disasters and animal cruelty cases in Volusia County.  Leath was formerly a Regional Director of the Field Investigations and Response Team at the ASPCA where he led one of the largest operations in ASPCA history with the seizure of over 1\,000 animals in August of 2016. Leath has responded to multiple dogfighting operations throughout his time at the ASPCA\, including the second-largest dogfighting bust in U.S. history in 2013\, resulting in the seizure of more than 400 dogs. \nLeath holds a bachelor’s degree in animal science from the University of Tennessee and a Graduate Certificate in Veterinary Forensic Science from the University of Florida. He is a courtesy Assistant Professor for the Department of Comparative\, Diagnostic\, and Population Medicine at the University of Florida College of Veterinary Medicine.  He is a Director on the Board of Directors for the National Animal Care and Control Association. Leath is a Past President of the International Veterinary Forensic Sciences Association and is a Certified National Animal Cruelty Investigator through the University of Missouri. He has also been certified in Equine Cruelty Investigation through the University of Colorado.

SUMMARY:National Shelter Medicine Rounds – 6/28/22 – Discussion: Trauma-Informed Approach to Behavioral Care in Shelters – UW and UC Davis Shelter Medicine Programs
DESCRIPTION:On June 14 Dr. Sheila Segurson presented ‘A Trauma-Informed Approach to Behavioral Care in Shelters’ for National Rounds. For those who missed her live presentation on 6/14 you can view the recording here: https://youtu.be/hgG914xaQqw. We will be holding rounds this month as the same layout as last month; on June 28th there will be a group discussion on this presentation topic. \nPlease read more on this topic below and we hope to see many of you joining us. \nA Trauma-Informed Approach to Behavioral Care in Shelters with Dr. Sheila Segurson\, DVM\, DACVB\, CDBC\, CCBC \nAs our communities become more informed about recognizing and responding to human trauma\, there’s growing interest in the impact of chronic stress and trauma on animal behavior. There’s a large volume of evidence that demonstrates the negative impact of trauma on human health and welfare. While research in animals isn’t focused on the concept of trauma\, this session will share evidence that demonstrates the impact of stressful experiences on animal health and welfare. Acknowledgement of the role of trauma in animal behavior encourages us to be more understanding and respond more appropriately to undesirable or challenging behaviors that may be caused by trauma. This session will discuss practical ways you can prevent trauma and help animals to recover. \nNational Shelter Medicine Rounds is held on the same Zoom link for every session: \nhttps://uwmadison.zoom.us/j/97442637396 \nMeeting ID: 974 4263 7396 \nOne tap mobile \n+13017158592\,\,97442637396# US (Washington DC) \n+13126266799\,\,97442637396# US (Chicago) \nThis group is made up of shelter veterinarians\, shelter vet trainees\, and upper level shelter leadership. If you know anyone that would like to be added to the national shelter medicine rounds email list to regularly receive scheduling updates moving forward\, please have them email a request to be added to the email group to nationalsheltermedicinerounds@vetmed.wisc.edu. \nWeb Conference System Details: \nIf you have not used Zoom before I’d recommend you join at the zoom link in advance to give it a test run on your computer as you’ll likely need to do a quick download.

SUMMARY:Grant Opportunity – Deadline 6/30/22 – Open Grant – California for All Animals
DESCRIPTION:The UC Davis Koret Shelter Medicine Program (KSMP) is announcing requests for proposals for the California for All Animals Program. We are excited to partner with you to make an impact on animal shelters in California. The Open Grants period will commence on May 1\, 2022 and end on June 30\, 2022. \nLearn more and apply here: https://www.californiaforallanimals.com/grants/open-grants/ \nWho is eligible? \n\nmunicipal shelters\,\nprivate shelters with municipal contracts\, and\nprivate shelters without municipal contracts that house animals in a brick and mortar facility and are open to the public a minimum of fifteen hours per week for adoptions and return to home.\n\n\nAnimal control agencies that provide field services and animal control functions are also eligible to apply\, even if they do not perform sheltering services.\n\nMost grants will be funded in a range of $25\,000 to $200\,000; however\, if your proposal is outside this range\, reach out to our team and we can talk through it. \nWhat are the guidelines? \nThe goal of the California for All Animals program is to reduce the euthanasia of healthy and treatable animals in shelters. That means all shelters in California are able to provide every animal at risk with the Right Care in the Right Place at the Right Time to the Right Outcome. To reach this goal\, we are focusing on four categories: Outcomes (Adoptions\, Foster\, Return to Home and Community)\, Field Services and Animal Control\, Care of Animals in the Shelter\, and Community Support. \nOutcomes (Adoptions\, Return to Home and Return to Community) \nWhat does your organization need to increase adoptions\, foster programs\, transfer to partners\, return to home\, and return to community of origin (community cats\, for example). Proposals may include requests for veterinary care\, supplies\, equipment\, technology\, training and staffing. \nField Services and Animal Control \nAnimal control officers play a vital role in an agency’s connection to the community. What does your organization need to return loose pets to their homes and provide support to community members? Examples include supplies such as kitten kits\, fencing\, trolleys\, doghouses\, vouchers for spay/neuter and medical care\, microchip scanners\, collars and leashes\, and technology to enhance mobile work. Proposals will also be accepted for training for animal control officers to provide supportive services. \nCare of Animals in the Shelter \nGrant funding in this category should focus on physical\, medical and mental well-being of animals that are in the shelter’s care. This includes veterinary care supplies and services\, behavior and enrichment\, volunteer and foster programs\, equipment and supplies including housing improvements and interaction spaces. \nIntake Management and Community Support \nGrant funding in this category should focus on strengthening and streamlining your organization’s ability to provide services to the community. Examples include supplies and veterinary care to keep pets in their homes and communities of origin\, developing appointment-based services for intake\, resources for handling calls such as an automated system\, finder foster programs\, website messaging\, text messaging\, hotline run by staff or volunteers\, and staffing for outreach and engagement. \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://www.californiaforallanimals.com/grants/open-grants/

SUMMARY:Webinar - 6/30/22 - Erin Lynes - Leash Skills for Puppies - FDSA (fee applies)
DESCRIPTION:One of the most common training issues – across dogs of all ages\, breeds\, and sizes – is leash pulling! Everyone wants to be able to walk their dog – for fun\, for exercise\, or just to get somewhere safely-without getting dragged off their feet or dislocating a shoulder. \nLeash walking is not a natural behavior in itself\, but there are some hard-wired puppy behaviors in early development that if properly reinforced\, actually help make leash training easier. The sooner you start\, the better: it is definitely easier to start right away with a baby puppy and build good habits than to fix bad habits later on with a full grown dog! \nThis webinar will look at the ways that we can build leash skills in baby puppies – starting from the day you first bring them home and splitting the skills into baby brain sized bits – so that you can you can get off on the right foot and build good habits before bad ones get a leash pulling gets a chance to become habitual! We’ll look at the factors that make leash training challenging and the things that handlers do that accidentally make this worse\, so that you can prevent those from becoming problems for your new puppy. We’ll look at games that you can play to make the learning fun\, how to determine the location\, duration\, and frequency of leash training sessions to maximize success AND how to manage exercise needs and leash walking before your puppy has fully established skills so that you aren’t just setting yourself back! Training gear that is helpful is covered\, as well as how and when to use it. Finally\, we’ll talk about having reasonable expectations for good leash behavior\, and how those expectations play into your ability to preserve good habits through adolescence and beyond. \nThe dream of a dog who walks nicely on leash is possible and it’s never too early to get started! \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://www.fenzidogsportsacademy.com/index.php/self-study/webinars

SUMMARY:Webinar - 7/5/22 - DPFL’s Approach to On-Leash Reactivity - Dogs Playing for Life
DESCRIPTION:Reactivity on the part of dogs living in shelters is a rampant issue that can contribute to behavioral deterioration\, increased length of stay\, and even loss of life.

SUMMARY:Webinar - 7/7/22 - Imitation and Mimicry: You Can Do It! with Julie Flanery - FDSA (fee applies)
DESCRIPTION:It gave me shivers the first time my dog mimicked me\, to do what I just did… on cue. \nIn teaching my dog to imitate and mimic behaviors I demonstrated for her\, I felt a unique connection and discovered a new way to communicate with my dog. You too can have that same feeling of wonder\, amazement and surprise the first time\, and every time your dog shows just how capable they are of this extraordinary skill. \nCome and learn a step-by-step protocol developed by Claudia Fugazza\, that teaches your dog to not only mimic your behavior\, but transfer that understanding in the teaching of new\, unknown behaviors. Learn how teaching your dog to imitate you can enhance any training method you already use. \nNote: This webinar is back by popular demand. Please check your webinar library before purchasing. \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://www.fenzidogsportsacademy.com/index.php/self-study/webinars\n

SUMMARY:Webinar - 7/7/22 - Spiral Up to Success: Improve the Flow\, Fun\, and Effectiveness of your Training (WORKING WEBINAR) - FDSA (fee applies)
DESCRIPTION:Spiral training emphasizes flow and fun in training by removing the “linear/singular goal” approach to acquiring skills. By substituting a spiral made up of a wide variety of needed skills\, you and your dog will be able to train longer with more joy and less stress – what a win for your team! \nIn this webinar\, you’ll learn what qualities to consider in your spiral training and how to attain your goals without hyper-focusing on any singular skill or behavior. You’ll observe video examples of typical spiral training sessions where we incorporate toys\, food\, and behavior work amongst all of the skill training to ensure you cover as much territory as possible. One day\, a few months down the road\, you will look back and be amazed at what your dog can do – significant progress with less effort and more fun! \nPresenter: Denise Fenzi \nThis is a working webinar. That means you’ll be given a short break before Q&A to put what you learned into practice. When the break is over\, you can return to the group and ask your questions to ensure you have a solid grasp of the materials. \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://www.fenzidogsportsacademy.com/index.php/self-study/webinars
