VetGirl and Zoetis Present: (Free to all) – Join us for a free VETgirl–Zoetis webinar by Dr. Stephan Carey, DVM, PhD, DACVIM (SAIM), as he reviews the coughing dog and what you need to know. This lecture will review clinical signs, etiology, treatment and identification/diagnosis of etiological agents such as Canine Influenza Virus and Bordetella . We will also discuss potential public health implications associated with influenza infection in dogs. Preventative care will also be briefly reviewed.

AmPa! Presents: A live webinar event featuring Return to Owner expert and innovator, Gina Knepp of Michelson Found Animals Foundation. Gina will review the most recent best practices and recommendations from the national organization dedicated to getting more pets reunited with their owners.

CalAnimals Presents: UC Davis KSMP’s Dr. Hurley and Dr. Delany – Return to Field programs across the country have matured, enabling us to finally have an opportunity to look at the data and determine the effectiveness of these programs at managing the cats in our communities. We’ll discuss who these programs are really serving and how their evolution impacts the strategies driving your veterinary programs.

NACA/Justice Clearinghouse Present: Whether you are part of a non-profit or municipal agency, Animal Welfare Organizations have to operate within a budget.  Organizations find themselves trying to meet the needs of citizens, both two and four-legged. However, animal welfare organizations find themselves at a crossroads between responding to requests for service and adhering to the mission of the organization. In the never-ending struggle to please everyone, is your organization’s mission taking a backseat to placating the next complaint? In this session, we will explore some of the common pitfalls organizations fall into that compete with their mission.

Network for Good Presents: Want to know what the future holds for your nonprofit? We don’t have a crystal ball, but we do have the next best thing – join our upcoming day-long Virtual Conference to learn how to stay ahead in these changing times. You’ll hear from nonprofit thought leaders and experts who have the scoop on how to keep your good going in the face of adversity.

The AAWA Presents – It’s no secret that our nation is deeply divided along political and social lines. This is especially true right now. These divisions make it increasingly difficult for animal welfare organizations to develop messages that appeal to people on both sides of the divide. Join us for a session that will equip your organization with the tools your staff, volunteers, and board need to listen thoughtfully and communicate effectively with supporters who span the political and social spectrum. 

AmPa! Presents: In this session we will jump into a hands-on approach to using the Michelson Found Animals free registry to manage the animals you foster, or pull from local shelters.
