SUMMARY:Webinar - 8/14/23 - BREATHE! It's Good for You (And Your Dog) - Your End of the Leash Part 2 - PPG (fee applies)
DESCRIPTION:This webinar is the second in the Your End of the Leash series\, which focuses on helping handlers become the best possible partners for their dogs. \nNo matter how smart your dog may be\, no matter how much he knows or can do\, he still depends on you as his partner. \nWould you want a partner who was tense with gritted teeth and tight breathing? Or would you prefer a relaxed partner\, whose movements and expression showed enjoyment in working with you? \nThis webinar focuses on the simple but oh-so complicated basic of life itself: breathing. We’ll cover: \n\nBreathe! Why in and out is the best choice\nBreathing as communication – what you tell your dog (maybe without meaning to)\nEffects of breathing on learning & performance\nObserving breathing patterns in yourself and others\nCoaching others\n\nYou’ll learn practical techniques to help yourself (and your students) create greater awareness about breathing\, along with ways to practice here\, there and everywhere. \nBonus: what you learn in your quest to become your dog’s best partner turns out to be helpful in the rest of your life! Breathing awareness can help you relax\, reduce tension and stress\, and understand how your breathing can affect others. \nPresenter: Suzanne Clothier  \nCEUs: PPAB 1\, CPDT 1\, KPA 1\, PMCT 1 & IAABC 1 \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://petprofessionalguild.com/event-5282460

SUMMARY:Webinar – 8/15/23 – 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://dogsplayingforlife.com/webinars/

SUMMARY:Online Event - 8/17/23 - Boosting Positive Outcomes: Antidotes to Fear\, Bias and Saviorism - California for All Animals
DESCRIPTION:Intake is up\, but so is innovation and positive disruption. In this series of four dynamic roundtable conversations\, frontline workers leading change across California and the country will highlight collaborative approaches to removing barriers that come between people and pets and dish on creative solutions they’re implementing to ensure pets spend more nights at home\, not in the shelter.  \nPull up a seat and bring your questions for our panelists to discuss around the table on August 17\, 24\, 31 and September 7 from 9-10 a.m. PDT. Register for the series to attend live or access on-demand after each event\, and visit www.californiaforallanimals.com/together to learn more about funding and resources available to California shelters working to keep and bring more #PetsAndPeopleTogether / #MascotasYPersonasJuntas. \nAugust 17: Boosting Positive Outcomes: Antidotes to Fear\, Bias and Saviorism   \nWe want to place animals in loving homes\, but strict outcomes policies and processes actually discourage awesome adopters or prevent animals from returning home\, increasing length of stay; fear\, anxiety and stress responses; and disease risk.   \nAt this roundtable\, we’re getting real and discussing how we can respond when barriers rooted in fear\, bias\, and saviorism creep into our systems\, muck up our flowthrough\, and keep animals waiting. What does it look like when practices and policies are built around love\, fairness\, and solidarity with our community and in support of our shared goals? Four organizations will explore how community-centered adoption initiatives have opened their doors and jumpstarted positive outcome cycles for animals and more positive\, connection-driven cultures among shelter teams.  \nPanelists   \n\nCole Wakefield (Good Shepherd Humane Society)\nCaitlin Daly (SPCA of Erie)\nJoy Smith (FieldHaven Feline Center)\nDenise Woodside (SEAACA)\n\nWEBSITE LINK:  https://sheltermedicine.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_xEvcITQPSHale7-9mKFvLg

SUMMARY:Webinar - 8/17/23 -  Outcomes Protocol for At-Risk Dogs - CalAnimals
DESCRIPTION:With shelters struggling with high populations and capacity issues\, it’s more urgent than ever that dogs move through the shelter system quickly to make space for incoming dogs. Whether you are struggling to make behavioral euthanasia decisions for dogs with documented histories of aggression\, or you are managing a population of long stay dogs experiencing behavioral decline\, this webinar will help you more effectively and efficiently manage your dog population\, give your dogs a fair chance at a live outcome\, and reduce your overall length of stay. Kristen Hassen has led three\, large government animal shelters with intakes up to 20\,000 annually and has taught and mentored many others. \n“We need to achieve a balance of lifesaving\, humane care\, risk management\, and cost efficiency.” All four are possible\, but we need to have better systems in place to triage dogs from intake to appropriate pathways\, establish goals for length of stay in shelter\, implement standard procedures for dogs at risk of behavioral or space euthanasia\, and ensure each dog is treated as an individual while in the care of animal services.” \nThis presentation will include 45 minutes of presentation time and 45 minutes for questions and discussion. Topics covered include: \n-Chunking dogs into groups to address various barriers to exit.\n-How to manage dogs with behavioral histories at intake.\n-The role of volunteers and advocates in moving at-risk dogs through the system.\n-The at-risk dog flow process.\n-Shelter status and the role of rescue groups\n-What outcomes can you expect?\n-Euthanasia due to space vs. behavioral decline vs. behavior – why distinguishing these is important. \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_7c_K2d9SRMGkHSATNRTr1g#/registration

SUMMARY:Webinar - 8/17/23 - When Start Buttons Fail: When Opted In Dogs Opt Back Out - FDSA (fee applies)
DESCRIPTION:You’re all ready to train; you have the plan\, the dog\, and the treats. Your dog seems attentive during your warm up\, but as you get into the session\, things start falling apart. It starts with the dog getting distracted and goes downhill from there. \nWhat happened? Your dog seemed ready to work\, but here you are\, with your dog sniffing the ground or staring at a distraction. \nSometimes dogs who have appeared to opt in might not be as ready as they seem. The signs aren’t always clear\, but dogs will often let us know if they aren’t 100% in the game. This webinar will show you how to recognize those subtle signs that give you a clue to the dog’s state of mind\, so you don’t start training with a dog that’s not quite ready. \nOccasionally dogs will be all in\, but something happens to change that. Perhaps a new distraction showed up\, or the dog made a mistake and struggled to recover\, or maybe the handler asked for too many repetitions of a behavior. We’ll cover this scenario too – how to get the dog back. There are many options for handling a situation like this\, and you’ll learn how to find one that works for your dog. \nWhen your opted in dog opts back out\, you have options! Join me as we explore this topic deeper so you know just what to do when it happens to you. \nPresenter: Nicole Wiebusch \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://www.fenzidogsportsacademy.com/index.php/self-study/webinars
