Online Event – Fourth Thursdays – Maddie’s Monthly Behavior Connection – Maddie’s Fund
Maddie’s Fund Presents: Join us on the fourth Thursday of every month as we talk about dog and cat behavior – supporting pets in our community and animal shelters. Each month, we hear from speakers about topics of interest to our group, such as behavior medications, modifying animal behavior, assessing and improving animal welfare, and how organizations successfully provide behavior support to dogs and cats.
Webinar – 8/29/24 – Testicle Talk – Customer Service in the Animal Space – CalAnimals
CalAnimals Presents: This session will inspire attendees to really evaluate the training given to all staff/volunteers that interact with others. Often, we presume customer service is something our parents should have taught us, but that is not always the case. This session will be unique in that we will walk through conversations that we have routinely, but often fall short in doing so.
