Webinar – 11/14/20 – Dog Bites to Children: Triggers, Myths and Management – ACVB (fee applies)
Sat, Nov 14, 2020 1:00 PM – 2:00 PM PST
Any dog, of any breed or background, is capable of biting, including family pets who are loved and pampered. Young children, especially, can be injured severely. Although we often hear about the statistics of reported bites to children, there is still a great deal of misunderstanding and mythology about its causes and safe management, and a persistent disconnect between the public’s understanding about dog behavior, and what dogs actually do. Understanding the behavioral basis and triggers of biting, along with humane, rational handling and training, are important steps towards helping children and dogs live together safely.

Webinar – 10/29/20 – Boxing Down: The Wrong Choice for Animals… and People – Fear Free
Boxing Down: The Wrong Choice for Animals… and PeopleMost of us who have been practicing for longer than a decade have used inhalant chambers to “box down” feline patients. It seemed to work, and the patient was able to be treated. Why throw away a potentially useful sedation protocol? Because the use of inhalant chambers or masks (also called “boxing” or “masking”) for sedation or induction to anesthesia is not considered standard of care.
We hope you can join Clinical Behavioral Medicine Resident Alison Gerken, DVM, and Washington State University Adjunct Professor Tamara Grubb, DVM, PhD, DACVAA, as they discuss the science of why these techniques are no longer recommended and what you can do instead.
