SUMMARY:Webinar - 1/24/24 - Grief & Loss in Veterinary Medicine - BlackDVM Network
DESCRIPTION:Euthanasia is an experience\, not a procedure or event. The experience of the loss of an animal companion\, no matter how dignified\, well-planned\, and peaceful\, initiates a physiological\, cognitive\, and emotional process which is unique to the individual. This program explores the experience of loss not only for the human “pet parent\,” but also for the other animals who shared in the life of the deceased. Humans and animals have parallel emotional circuitry built into the limbic system of the brain. There is much about the emotional experience of loss that we have in common with our animal companions. Listeners will be challenged to imagine foreign perspectives and re-think the human-animal bond\, anthropomorphism\, and mortality itself. \nThis webinar will equip you with skills to: \n\nChallenge assumptions about patients\, clients\, and the end of life\nBecome comfortable allowing animals to show their emotional needs\nEngage better with clients\, patients\, and colleagues\n\nWEBSITE LINK:  https://www.blackdvmnetwork.com/event-details/grief-loss-in-veterinary-medicine

SUMMARY:Webinar - 1/25/24 - In Whose Best Interest? with Karen Deeds - FDSA (fee applies)
DESCRIPTION:This webinar will not outline any training or behavior modification. What it will do is present your options for dogs with serious behavior problems and give you a framework about how to make an educated decision regarding those options. Is management alone an appropriate option? Or is your problem too severe to chance management failure? Is the problem one that can be responsibly transferred to another owner and/or another environment successfully? The same variables to help determine what option is best for you\, will also be critical in determining if training and behavior modification are a viable option as well as how successful that option may be. The agonizing decision to discuss behavioral euthanasia with your veterinarian can also be analyzed logically by using these same variables. This can be a difficult topic. But it is important to keep in mind\, in whose best interest we decide. \nWhether you are part of a rescue group\, shelter staff\, or volunteer\, dedicated dog owner\, professional trainer or behavior consultant\, or a veterinarian working with a client\, this webinar will help to make an appropriate decision regarding a dog in your care. \nJoin Karen Deeds as she takes you through over 20 variables about the dog\, the environment\, and the people involved to help you determine what option is best for a dog with serious behavior issues. \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://www.fenzidogsportsacademy.com/index.php/self-study/webinars
