Jennifer Summerfield, DVM - Medical Vs. Behavioral: How do we tell the difference?
Date: Thursday, Mar. 21, 2019
Time: 3pm Pacific Time (Click here for time at FDSA (Pacific Time).
Fee: $19.95 - Registration required PRIOR to scheduled presentation time.
We all know that medical issues can influence behavior. Dogs who don’t feel well can be cranky, or more anxious than normal – just like humans! But what about less obvious “red flags” for a physical problem that you might not be aware of?
In this webinar, we’ll talk about the following:
- What a routine veterinary visit can tell us… and what it can’t!
- How pain, GI discomfort, and hormonal issues can impact aggression and anxiety
- Determining if abnormal repetitive behaviors are compulsive or neurologic
- Behavioral side effects of common medications
I’ll also give some practical suggestions for talking to your veterinarian about these issues, as well as possible diagnostic and treatment options to consider if you think something might be wrong.
Trish McMillan - Canine Body Language
Date: Thursday, Mar. 21, 2019
Time: 6pm Pacific Time (Click here for time at FDSA (Pacific Time).
Fee: $19.95 - Registration required PRIOR to scheduled presentation time.
Dogs communicate with an elegant language without words, using their bodies to let others know how they feel. Reading your dog, or a dog you’re just meeting, can help you teach them more efficiently, and keep you safe as well. We will look in depth how dogs use each body part to communicate with us and with other dogs, and then we will put it all together, using video examples.
Amy Cook, PhD. - Walking with Reactive Dogs!
Date: Thursday, Mar. 28, 2019
Time: 6pm Pacific Time (Click here for time at FDSA (Pacific Time).
Fee: $19.95 - Registration required PRIOR to scheduled presentation time.
Do you have a dog who barks and lunges on walks, overreacting to the other dogs and people in the world? Maybe he’s enthusiastic and frustrated and wants to greet, or maybe she’s feeling pressured and defensive and wants everyone to go away! It can be hard to walk a dog that is triggered into a reaction by so many things in the world. In this webinar, you’ll learn the skills that will get you through the rough spots without the blow up, and master the fine art of the magnet walk and while you develop strategy that can help get you back out and about! Let’s get your dog walking with you again!
Julie Daniels - Wait! All About When to Go
Date: Thursday, Apr. 4, 2019
Time: 3pm Pacific Time (Click here for time at FDSA (Pacific Time).
Fee: $19.95 - Registration required PRIOR to scheduled presentation time.
This webinar will take a dynamic approach to the passive act of waiting and the explosive action of going on cue.
Using a dog’s choice approach, we will create value for the concepts of patience and anticipation. It’s not about preventing anything. It’s about loving the ‘when to GO’ game.
Do you want to build a solid new behavior? Do you need a solution to a problem behavior? Either way, this webinar will give you the tools in a step by step tutorial.
Denise Fenzi - The Fenzi Method: Cutting Corners to Loose Leash Walking (REPEAT)
Date: Thursday, Apr. 4, 2019
Time: 6pm Pacific Time (Click here for time at FDSA (Pacific Time).
Fee: $19.95 - Registration required PRIOR to scheduled presentation time.
Please note: This is a repeat of Denise's webinar presentation from 2/28/2019, which sold out.
Is your dog is a chronic leash puller? If leash walking is a misery then this webinar is for you! The Fenzi “cutting corners” method can work even for dogs where other approaches have failed. It requires no food, no highly controlled environments, and allows for reasonably inexperienced handlers. This method is equally suited to a young puppy on dog directed socialization outings as it is for strong adult dogs with years of practice pulling on walks. And the best part? It works fast and without compulsive techniques by reducing frustration in both the puller and the pullee!
If you are tired of being dragged around or a trainer who simply wants more options for helping your clients, then join Denise and learn why trainers who joined the first webinar are raving about this simple, highly effective approach!
Lori Stevens - Fitness for the Active Pre-Senior Dog: Ease into Aging with Strength, Flexibility, and Balance
Date: Thursday, Apr. 11, 2019
Time: 6pm Pacific Time (Click here for time at FDSA (Pacific Time).
Fee: $19.95 - Registration required PRIOR to scheduled presentation time.
This webinar is about fitness for the pre-senior dog (the fourth of five stages of a dog's life, says me who just added a stage). Did you know there was a pre-senior stage? The pre-senior adult is on the latter side of being a very active adult. At this age, she's active and her body is functioning well but the younger dogs are getting most of the action. i.e. working, sports, and competition focus. This not-so-old adult is mellowing and no longer getting/demanding quite as much or as physically-intense activity as she used to. This webinar is focused on what we need to do to keep the pre-senior body fit. The goals are to keep our dogs functioning and strong as they age and for the rest of their lives.
I'll cover:
- The Stages of a Dog's Life
- What happens physiologically as dogs age?
- Why is fitness so important for our dogs in the second half of adult life?
- Walking and hiking and where these fit
- What do we need to watch out for?
- Fitness exercises for functioning throughout the dog's entire life
