Webinar – 8/24/23 – DPFL’s Approach to On-Leash Reactivity – Dogs Playing for Life
Reactivity on the part of dogs living in shelters is a rampant issue that can contribute to behavioral deterioration, increased length of stay, and even loss of life. From a misdiagnosis of “aggression” to dogs whose reactive behavior escalates to problematic and potentially unsafe levels, learning how to help dogs suffering from reactivity issues is a crucial need shared by our entire industry.
While this webinar can be attended as a standalone course, we will build on our Fancy Footwork approach to handling and training to offer practical training, handling, and safety solutions to on-leash reactivity for dogs living in shelters.
This is a 1.5-hour presentation followed by a Q&A session. This webinar will NOT be recorded and is scheduled on EASTERN TIME.

Webinar – 8/24/23 – Lessons from the Field: How One Community Transformed Its Response to Animal Cruelty through Collaboration – NACA/Justice Clearinghouse
Resolution in animal cruelty response can take the form of criminal citation, compliance plans, or access to services. In striving for resolution, cases are best served when enforcement professionals can rely on trained veterinarians, animal rescue and sheltering entities, and community service organizations to lend their particular expertise to each case.
In this webinar, you will learn—through case studies and firsthand testimony—how the Animal Legal Defense Fund’s Collaborative Response Project helped foster collaborative relationships for one community through training, grant funding, and hands on support.
Encourage animal control officers, veterinarians, traditional law enforcement agencies, prosecutors, and community organizations in your area to tune in and explore the ways you can start building sustainable partnerships on behalf of animals today. Be the first to learn how to apply to participate in the Animal Legal Defense Fund’s 2023 Collaborative Response Project.
This webinar has been certified by the National Animal Care & Control Association and is approved for 1 Continuing Education Unit. Please refer to your NACA membership portal for current CEU submission process. Current NACA Members who attend the live presentation or watch the recording will be able to download a jointly issued attendance certificate that includes the National Animal Care & Control Association logo.
