SUMMARY:Online Event - 9/2/25 - All Call: Lessons from Growing Front Street’s HOAP Program - California for All Animals
DESCRIPTION:Since the Homeless Outreach and Assistance Program (HOAP) launched in May 2022\, Sacramento’s Front Street Animal Shelter has managed to not only sustain but also grow partnerships with pet owners and community organizations. In its first two years alone\, the HOAP team supported 1\,510 people experiencing homelessness\, helped 2\,713 animals\, administered over 7\,908 treatments and coordinated $380\,000 in emergency veterinary services. Now they’re making care even more accessible with a new mobile veterinary clinic. \nOn September 2\, join Program Coordinator Jenna Topper for behind-the-scenes insights into the program as it heads into year four. You’ll discover how the HOAP team: \n\nBuilt and sustained partnerships with pet owners and community organizations to deepen impact.\nBalanced program growth and sustainability while handling a large volume of services.\nOvercame challenges to expand access to care delivered with respect and dignity.\n\nBring your questions to the conversation and take away real-world strategies you can apply in your own shelter. Connect with your colleagues—only three calls left! Register for the call. \nThe All Call is a California community call for animal well-being professionals. The one-hour call is a dedicated space to share and learn from each other. Popular topics include initiatives that create a more inclusive culture for both staff and community\, programs that keep pets with their people\, industry trends\, research studies\, as well as the hard stuff\, like what’s not working or what is particularly difficult during times of scarcity. The call is a mix of presentations\, storytelling\, open discussion\, and Q&A time. \nThe All Call is hosted by Nadia Oseguera-Ramón and Ivy Ruiz. You only need to register one time. Calls are sometimes recorded; recap emails with supplemental resources are sent post-call.

SUMMARY:Webinar - 9/4/25 - Mike Shikashio - Arousal and Aggression - FDSA (fee applies)
DESCRIPTION:What does “arousal” have to do with aggressive behaviors in dogs? In some cases\, arousal can be the catalyst for an intense\, aggressive response\, and can be directed at something a dog may not even be focused on. We may also see cases where a dog in a highly aroused state “spills over” into aggressive behavior. \nMike will first define this often-controversial topic and discuss why it is crucial to consider arousal as a factor in aggression cases. Prevention\, management\, and behavior change strategies will be highlighted! \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://www.fenzidogsportsacademy.com/index.php/self-study/webinars
