ONLINE WEBINAR: Shelter Behavior Webinar Series with Trish McMillan, Part 2 – Sheltering the hard to shelter dog

July 17, 2021 @ 11:00 am - 12:30 pm

The pandemic has resulted in many more households adopting and rescuing pets. With more people working from home, the interest in adding a pet to the household has significantly increased. Dog Trainers and Behavior Consultants are slammed with cases from newbie pet owners to dogs biting in the home. Shelters and rescue groups have been working double time to match families with dogs in need while trying to offer post-adoption support at a rate higher than ever before.

We thought this would be a good time to talk about shelter behavior with Trish McMillan in a 3-part webinar series.

With two decades of involvement in animal sheltering in three countries, including nearly 8 years with the ASPCA, Trish has worked with a wide variety of shelter behavior issues. Her shelter work includes intakes, enrichment, rehabilitation, assessment, adoptability criteria-setting, and post-adoption support.

 

Part 2 – Sheltering the hard to shelter dog

Managing the over-aroused dog in shelters

Animal shelters are a tough place to spend time, and social animals tend to deteriorate in solitary confinement. What can we do to help dogs who are having a hard time in shelters, how can we safely handle and train them, and most importantly, how can we get them out of the shelter and into homes?

Saturday July 17, 2021 – 11am to 12:15pm EDT

This webinar is suitable for veterinary professionals, animal trainers, animal behaviorists, shelter and rescue staff and volunteers, and anyone with an interest in evidence-based behavior intervention.
