SUMMARY:Webinar - 6/6/24 - California Rabies Awareness Challenge - CalAnimals
DESCRIPTION:Rabies control activities are an important function of California shelters and animal control agencies. Why are rabies vaccines important? What does rabies look like in domestic animals and how risky is this to humans? Rabies vaccine is the ONLY vaccine among the various biologics administered to companion animals in California that is regulated under State law\, and it is the responsibility of every licensed veterinarian to practice within the context of law when managing patients with respect to rabies and rabies vaccination. This scenario-based presentation has been developed to challenge participants on California regulatory/statutory issues pertaining to rabies. \nThe audience will be tasked to provide the correct (legal) responses to a variety of situations encountered in practice relating to rabies: eg\, what does “currently vaccinated” (in law) actually mean? What are the consequences for the patient\, and the owner\, following rabies exposure if the patient is “currently vaccinated” vs NOT “currently vaccinated?” Who has rabies vaccination exemption authority? How do we vaccinate hybrid species? What is Prospective Serological Monitoring? When is it recommended that we vaccinate our staff? \nSpeaker: Richard Ford\, DVM\, MS\, DACVIM\, DACVPM \nModerated by: Amy Auch\, DVM\, CCFP \nA huge thanks to Boehringer-Ingelheim for sponsoring this webinar! \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_9aHomdAzStGuLy-sD9KM9w#/

SUMMARY:Webinar - 6/6/24 - When Feelings Get in the Way - FDSA (fee applies)
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Amy Cook\, PhD \nYou’ve probably heard me say “when you teach your dog what to do\, you teach her how to feel\,” but have you thought about all the ways that may be impacting your training? Emotions and behaviors go hand in hand\, and you do not get the luxury of prioritizing one over the other. It’s in your best interest to align your emotional goals with your behavioral ones! \nExperiences like frustration\, confusion\, agitation\, desperation\, insecurity\, uncertainty\, suspicion and more (and the underlying emotions informing those) all get in the way of your dog’s learning and performance\, and also affect the bigger picture of what it’s like to work with you and learn things in general! One thing we really want in our dogs is a love of working with us\, full attention\, and for them to know they’re safe so they can give their all! \nIn this presentation I’ll go over the ways we can contribute to unwanted states in our dogs\, what that might look like\, and how you can minimize negative states and emphasize positive\, supportive ones! Let’s keep our dogs in the happy bucket! \n** This Webinar was previously included in the Dogs with Big Feelings One Day Conference (July 2022).
