Loni is a member of the editorial board for RCVS Knowledge Veterinary Evidence and an associate editorial board member for Applied Animal Behaviour Science.
Presentaion Detail: Personality is an important facet in equine training and behaviour. Each individual equine is unique in its personality traits and our work with the individual should be reflective of these traits. Personality mediates intensities of emotional state experienced by the individual, an aspect we should remain cognisant of within our work. José Ortega y Gasset said “Tell me what you pay attention to, and I will tell you who you are” – a phrase relevant to both human and non-human animals. This presentation will discuss the development of a new tool to assess equine personality which has been designed to provide a simple format for horse owners to use in order to discover the facets of their equines’ personality.

Presenter Bio: Liane has a Post-Graduate Diploma in Clinical Animal Behaviour, an MPhil in assessing horse welfare, and an MSc and BSc in Equine Science. She is an ABTC Accredited Animal Behaviourist and Provisional Member of the APBC. Liane is also a BHS Accredited Professional Coach and has achieved the Equitation Science International Diploma of Equitation Science. Liane is the Equine Quality of Life and Research Director for The Horse Trust. In this role, she researches new developments in how horses are cared for, managed and trained, so that the team can continue to update and improve their practices, and therefore improve the welfare of the horses in their care. Liane also develops training resources for trainee clinical animal behaviourists and assists the team in dealing with behaviour cases. She spends her spare time looking after her two horses, Lucas and Capsize.
Presentation Information: Introducing new horses to a group can result in agonistic interactions and an increased risk of injury, which can lead some owners to avoid turning their horses out with other horses. This webinar will explore how early life experiences and other factors can influence our horses’ social skills and ability to cope with new environments and equine companions. It will evaluate traditional approaches to introducing new horses to a group and then explore alternative approaches that have the potential to reduce the risk of injury, minimise stress and set our horses up for success with their new companions.

Presenter Bio:
Linda Michaels, M.A., creator of the paradigm-altering Hierarchy of Dog Needs is a leading advocate and speaker on ‘Do No Harm’ animal welfare advocacy—shifting perception away from justifications for the use of aversive treatment with the ‘heartbeats at our feet’ and toward meeting our dogs’ real needs. Her experiences helping shelter dogs for five-years as well as her work with wolfdogs and famed Belyaev foxes, laid the foundation for all of the work she does today. With an advanced degree in psychology and animal behaviour, plus research conducted in behavioural neurobiology Linda bridges the gap between research, dog trainers and pet parents.
Linda’s ground-breaking book, The Do No Harm Dog Training® and Behavior Handbook: Featuring the Hierarchy of Dog Needs, including a foreword written by Dr. Marc Bekoff, (behavioural ecologist and co-founder with Jane Goodall of Ethologists for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) is designed for both new and seasoned trainers, other animal-related professionals, and pet parents too. Introducing her Do No Harm behaviour approach to social media, Linda founded the wildly popular Do No Harm Dog Training group solving dog behavior problems for both pet parents and professionals seeking help.
Presentation Detail:
This webinar explores the ‘Do No Harm’ approach to dog care and behaviour modification through the paradigm-altering Hierarchy of Dog Needs (HDN) guide. Biological, emotional, social, training, and cognitive needs will be explored highlighting how recognizing, supporting and meeting these needs helps resolve behaviour problems in our dogs and decreases frustration, pressure, and discomfort on both ends of the leash. Grounded by empirical evidence, this teaching tool engenders use by professionals at every level as well as pet parents across the world.

Presenter Bio:
Maya has over a decade’s experience working in the field of domestic and sexual abuse both academically and practically. She has a Master’s of Law in Human Rights and is also both a qualified Independent Sexual Violence Advisor and Violence Against Women, Domestic Abuse and Sexual Violence Trainer. Maya spent several years working on the frontline supporting survivors of abuse emotionally through 1-2-1 support and as an advocate in statutory spaces; she is passionate about using a truly trauma informed approach and believes in the resilience and strength of both humans and animals to recover, adapt and grow post-abuse. In her current role as a trainer, she educates a variety of organisations on domestic abuse including both 3rd sector and statutory agencies.Maya discovered that the skills she used with survivors of abuse such as empathy, compassion and a natural inclination to ask rather than tell, easily transferred over to working with animals when she got her dog in 2019. Since then, she has had the privilege of engaging with some of the best well-known names within canine behaviour and her comprehension of animal behaviour has grown exponentially. She has found that her knowledge of trauma responses and using a trauma informed approach has leant itself well to supporting her dog through adolescence and reactivity as well as being able to help pet professionals improve their engagement with survivors of trauma at both ends of the lead.
In addition, Maya also sits on the editorial boards of several organisations’ training programmes looking at domestic abuse and the impact it has on both the human and animal victim survivor as well as trauma and dogs.
Presentation Information:
This webinar is part 2 of a series on the issues surrounding companion animal neglect/cruelty and domestic abuse. Part 1 aired in November 2022 and is available to watch through the APBC Event Website.
Content Warning for discussions of abuse which some may find triggering.
During this webinar we will focus on raising your understanding of the stages of leaving, touching on how the companion animal human bond can act as a protective factor for survivors but also as a barrier to leaving the abusive relationship. You will learn how to respond to survivors at each stage, including what questions to ask, using a trauma informed approach.
We will also explore your legal duty and responsibilities to act in certain circumstances if you suspect abuse and how to manage risk to the survivors, yourself and your other clients. Furthermore, we will discuss what resources and agencies are available to you as professionals as well as survivors.

Presenter Bio:
Roz Pooley is a full CAB member with the APBC and has a Master’s Degree in Clinical Animal Behaviour. She has been working with dogs for 13 years and is well regarded for her knowledge on street dogs/overseas rescues.
She lives in Bristol, UK with 3 dogs, including a Border Collie and two overseas rescue dogs.
Presentation Details:
When is food helpful? When is it a hindrance?
Should we use toys as reinforcers in these contexts?
Can training cues hinder progress?
Is tension on the lead during encounters ALWAYS a big no, no?
Are lower-level reactions ALWAYS unhelpful?
Is it even possible to consistently achieve close encounters or first sniffs without an elevation in arousal or anxiety?
Are we seeing relaxed behaviour or are we seeing reduced motivation created through excessive repetition?
How should helper dogs behave on sessions?
When are helper dogs NOT helpful?
Should muzzles always be used?
ABC-type training protocols and fixed recipe interventions are sometimes essential in the early stages of behaviour modification. But, as cases progress, rigid protocols may limit the ability for dogs to reach their full potential.
To truly tailor-make advice, we need to be ready to think out of the box- which may involve slight deviation from the ‘rules’ we often find ourselves prescribing to and feeling anxious about breaking.
Roz has worked in social rehabilitation for over a decade. Across this time, her dogs have assisted her and her team on sessions, often becoming the first up-close social interaction that case has had in years. She also helps her owners learn how to safely navigate walks with their dogs and in many cases, reintegrate them back into society (albeit often on the outskirts, rather than the epicentre).

Presenter Bio:
Practising as a full CAB member my passion is cats – feral to feline show champion. Helping to correct all their quirky unwanted issues, anxiety and stresses that can manifest from time to time.
I have worked alongside charities for many years helping rehabilitate cats from surrender and euthanasia.
I previously had my own cattery fostering and rehabilitating traumatised shelter cats, enabling them to go in to have happy lives with their new owners.
I love engaging with the cat caregivers and deciphering what problems they are having, as well as using my detective skills to find out what the cats’ problems are – so it’s a two-way approach to trying to find a balance where life is harmonious again for cat and for their human guardian.
As a CAB I assist with a wide range of feline behaviours but the most rewarding is to see a previously traumatised or anxious cat start to trust again……. this is life-changing for the cat.
Helping the owners to enrich their cat’s lives and build back bonds that have become broken is so rewarding.
It takes effort, it takes time and it’s not a quick fix but with a sustained approach trauma modification therapy can help both cat and owner to find their way to live their best lives together – ‘All nine of them’.
Presentation Details:
This webinar will explore the different ways in which trauma and anxiety can impact cats.
Including
-Collating antecedence for the cat.
-What constitutes stress or trauma for the feline
-Recognising stress and trauma symptoms
-How stress affects the cat physically and psychologically
-Common strategies useful to help cats impacted by trauma
-Case study to demonstrate environmental trauma therapy

Ellen has made it her mission to help owners of herding breeds connect in a practical way with their dogs so they can live together peacefully and happily. She is a full member of the Association of Pet Dog Trainers (APDT) the Institute of Modern Dog Trainers(IMDT), a graduate CBST of the Companion Animal Institute and is currently studying Applied Animal Behaviour and Training at University.
Ellen has owned Border Collies for her entire adult life, at home she has Efa (3 years old) a budding-ball enthusiast and Piper (1 year old) who is never far behind thanks to her herding drive. Jasper, Ellen’s dog in a million, ignited Ellen’s passion and drive to create The Urban Herder and took her on a vast learning journey across the country. Together Ellen and Jasper travelled the country to work with other trainers, attend seminars and events to seek help with his anxieties, fear, car reactivity and struggle with daily life. On this journey Ellen came across many other owners who were also experiencing issues similar to Jasper who could benefit from the knowledge gained. Although Jasper is no longer here, it is thanks to him that Ellen is able to understand, work with and help others and their herding breed to thrive in the urban environment.
Presentation Detail:
Life in the Urban Environment for Border Collies can elicit frustration due to the limitations on their innate desire to control movement. Nurturing the desire and skill to control movement is key to restoring balance and having a fulfilled herding breed.
Urban herding or exercises for herding breeds is a conversation between a Border Collie and their Handler that encompasses many skills from working at distance, movement patterns to finding the balance point. The activities will allow you to work with your dogs inherited behaviours. The perfect games for those that do not have access to sheep!

Presenter Bio: Erica has been running her business as a Consultant in Animal Behaviour since 1990. During this time she has seen thousands of dogs and their families for behaviour consultations, along with training, socialisation, confidence, and rehabilitation classes. She has given talks and lectures around the UK and abroad. Her main interest is in working with families and their pets, helping them achieve greater peace and enjoyment together. As a member of APBC and APDT, she is registered with ABTC as a CAB and ATL. She currently has four dogs, two cats, two guinea pigs, one horse, one gecko and three children.
Presentation Detail:
Life is becoming more complex and is often stressful. Mental health issues are increasingly commonplace today, and unsurprisingly, our dogs are beginning to share similar problems, which impact on their, and our, wellbeing.
After thirty years of working with people and their dogs and especially in our post-pandemic lives, I feel that a return to games which are simple (with no way of getting things “wrong”) and fun (they make us and our dogs feel better) are incredibly effective in improving our bond with our dogs and our dog’s outlook on life.
Games we share with our dogs also make us feel happier, help our dogs learn vital life skills, and may also avoid, resolve or improve some of the behaviour issues frequently encountered.
Interacting with our dogs to make us smile, build rapport and improve responsiveness.

Shirley has an MSc in Equine Science from The University of Edinburgh, with a focus on equine nutrition, behaviour and welfare. She lives in Israel, where she works as an independent equine nutritionist, the first in her country. Shirley is the founder of the EQUIDA platform, aimed to make evidence-based knowledge regarding equine health and welfare more accessible in Hebrew and Arabic. And also works as a translation manager and lecturer for the ANIVADO international equine nutrition education platform. Shirley is a passionate lecturer and determined scientist, hoping to contribute to the improvement of animal welfare through scientific knowledge and tools.
Shirley has presented her research in ESVCN 2020 and BEVA 2021, on the nutrition and feeding management of horses in Israel, with an emphasis on the effects of arid climates on health and welfare. She is a member of the Royal Society of Biology (MRSB) and an associate fellow of Advance Higher Education (AFHEA) and is always excited to teach as well as learn. Shirley has recently joined the APBC as an Academic Member and sees the integration of animal nutrition, behaviour and welfare as a natural and inevitable consequence of life.
Presentation Detail:
The Microbiome and Gut-Brain axis have been the focus of exciting new research of both humans and animals. While the neurological connection between the digestive system and the Central Nervous System (CNS) is direct and well-researched, the consequent link between nutrition and behaviour is not always as clearly identified. The different signals involved in the bilateral effects on nutrition and behaviour are especially prominent with equids such as horses and donkeys. Due to their social herbivorous nature and unique process of domestication. This presentation will review recent studies on the gut-brain axis and equine microbiome, as well as discuss the principal connections and implications between nutrition and behaviour in horses.

Presenter Bio:
Dr Carri Westgarth is a Senior Lecturer in Human-Animal Interaction at the University of Liverpool with a passion for understanding the relationships we have with our pets. With a background in animal behaviour and dog training she has trained in veterinary epidemiology and human public health. Her research interests focus on the implications of dog ownership for human health and wellbeing, but also how owner management of their dogs can impact dog welfare. Both quantitative and qualitative research methods are used to tackle her primary research questions of how to improve population health through the promotion of dog walking, and how to prevent dog bites. Her expertise on understanding and changing the behaviour of dog owners is sought by many organisations wishing to prevent dog bites and promote ‘responsible’ dog owner behaviour, such as her work as a consultant for Royal Mail. She is also a Full Member of the Association of Pet Behaviour Counsellors and founder of the Merseyside Dog Safety Partnership. In her spare time Carri teaches dog training classes, and previously was a professional Assistance Dog Instructor for the charity Hearing Dogs for Deaf People. Her practical experience in many areas relating to dogs, combined with a multi-disciplinary academic perspective, gives unique strength and relevance to her expertise.
Presentation Detail:
Dog aggression towards people is a significant, increasing and under-recognised public health problem causing physical harm and psychological distress. Aggressive incidents also have serious consequences for the dog, from changed management and poor welfare, to relinquishment or euthanasia. The question is therefore raised of how best to prevent dog bites from occurring. Over recent decades and with the advice of dog experts, efforts to reduce human-directed dog-aggression have taken a two-pronged approach, through the use of legislation banning certain breeds and giving power to target owners of ‘out of control’ dogs, and most popular, through educational campaigns to educate about dog behavioural signs, ‘responsible dog ownership’ and the importance of supervising dogs and children. But how effective are these approaches likely to be and what can we learn from successful injury prevention strategies in other areas? In this presentation we will review the scientific knowledge about dog bites and ‘responsible’ dog ownership (in particular in the UK), apply public health and human behaviour change lenses to the problem, and brainstorm injury prevention strategies that are likely to be most effective in reducing dog bites. Spoiler: ‘more education’ is surprisingly not the answer.

Presenter Bio:
Dr Carri Westgarth is a Senior Lecturer in Human-Animal Interaction at the University of Liverpool with a passion for understanding the relationships we have with our pets. With a background in animal behaviour and dog training she has trained in veterinary epidemiology and human public health. Her research interests focus on the implications of dog ownership for human health and wellbeing, but also how owner management of their dogs can impact dog welfare. Both quantitative and qualitative research methods are used to tackle her primary research questions of how to improve population health through the promotion of dog walking, and how to prevent dog bites. Her expertise on understanding and changing the behaviour of dog owners is sought by many organisations wishing to prevent dog bites and promote ‘responsible’ dog owner behaviour, such as her work as a consultant for Royal Mail. She is also a Full Member of the Association of Pet Behaviour Counsellors and founder of the Merseyside Dog Safety Partnership. In her spare time Carri teaches dog training classes, and previously was a professional Assistance Dog Instructor for the charity Hearing Dogs for Deaf People. Her practical experience in many areas relating to dogs, combined with a multi-disciplinary academic perspective, gives unique strength and relevance to her expertise.
Presentation Detail:
Dog aggression towards people is a significant, increasing and under-recognised public health problem causing physical harm and psychological distress. Aggressive incidents also have serious consequences for the dog, from changed management and poor welfare, to relinquishment or euthanasia. The question is therefore raised of how best to prevent dog bites from occurring. Over recent decades and with the advice of dog experts, efforts to reduce human-directed dog-aggression have taken a two-pronged approach, through the use of legislation banning certain breeds and giving power to target owners of ‘out of control’ dogs, and most popular, through educational campaigns to educate about dog behavioural signs, ‘responsible dog ownership’ and the importance of supervising dogs and children.

Presentation Details:
During this presentation we will discuss how scentwork can be used to support behaviour modification. I will talk about practical exercises that help to increase a dog’s confidence, agency and help fulfil breed specific needs. Additionally those exercises tend to be enjoyable for the owners too and give them an opportunity to have fun with their dog without focusing on their behaviour problems which is great for their relationship.

Maya has over a decade’s experience working in the field of domestic and sexual abuse both academically and practically. She has a Master’s of Law in Human Rights and is also both a qualified Independent Sexual Violence Advisor and Violence Against Women, Domestic Abuse and Sexual Violence Trainer. Maya spent several years working on the frontline supporting survivors of abuse emotionally through 1-2-1 support and as an advocate in statutory spaces; she is passionate about using a truly trauma informed approach and believes in the resilience and strength of both humans and animals to recover, adapt and grow post-abuse. In her current role as a trainer, she educates a variety of organisations on domestic abuse including both 3rd sector and statutory agencies.
Maya discovered that the skills she used with survivors of abuse such as empathy, compassion and a natural inclination to ask rather than tell, easily transferred over to working with animals when she got her dog in 2019. Since then, she has had the privilege of engaging with some of the best well-known names within canine behaviour and her comprehension of animal behaviour has grown exponentially. She has found that her knowledge of trauma responses and using a trauma informed approach has leant itself well to supporting her dog through adolescence and reactivity as well as being able to help pet professionals improve their engagement with survivors of trauma at both ends of the lead.
In addition, Maya also sits on the editorial boards of several organisations’ training programmes looking at domestic abuse and the impact it has on both the human and animal victim survivor as well as trauma and dogs.
Presentation Detail:
Understanding Animal Abuse as a Tactic of Coercive Controlling Behaviour in Domestically Abusive Relationships
Content Warning for discussions of abuse which some may find triggering.
There has long been a clear and established connection between animal cruelty and domestic abuse. This webinar will raise awareness of domestic abuse dynamics, including spotting the signs in adults, children and pets; with an emphasis on how perpetrators exploit the companion animal human bond as a tactic of coercive control in order to maintain power and control over their victim survivors.
This webinar is Part 1 of a series on the issues surrounding companion animal neglect/cruelty and domestic abuse. Part 2 will air in February 2023 and will cover safeguarding in relation to domestic abuse for pet professionals.

Debbie is a ABTC Registered Clinical Animal Behaviourist and a full member of the APBC
She holds an MSc in Companion Animal Behaviour and a Post Graduate Certificate in Education. Her masters research looked at the link between owner attachment and the quality of care provided to pet rats.
Debbie teaches at Writtle University College, having developed the Pet Behaviour and Welfare pathway of the Animal Science and Animal Management degrees there. She teaches about the health, handling and welfare of small mammals as well as the behaviour of companion animals. She also runs the on-campus pet behaviour clinic in addition to her own private clinical behaviour work.
Presentation Details:
Rodents are a diverse group of animals with varied needs and behavioural characteristics. Usually caged, and commonly considered as children’s ‘starter’ pets, the welfare of these animals is very much at the mercy of human husbandry choices. As owners are less likely to seek professional help for behavioural problems in rodents, this can further contribute to welfare issues. This webinar looks at some of the most commonly kept species in the UK, including rats, hamsters and guinea pigs, and considers their species-specific needs and how these can be best met in a domestic environment to prevent and manage behaviour problems.

Tiamat Warda is currently a PhD candidate in Anthrozoology at the University of Exeter, part of the Exeter Anthrozoology as Symbiotic Ethics (EASE) working group, and a Junior Fellow for the Global Research Network’s Animals and Biodiversity Think Tank programme. After working as a guide dog instructor for six years, Tiamat received an MA in Anthrozoology from the University of Exeter in 2019. Her PhD thesis defines humane emotional labour in relationships between guide dogs and their instructors during their shared work-lives. It contributes to anthrozoological research as a form of interspecies solidarity and supports a movement toward humane jobs. Tiamat’s research interests include interspecies collaboration and assistance, animal labour studies, and care work.
Presentation information:
To carry out their work, assistance dogs need to manage their emotions to remain collected and professional in a wide range of scenarios. In other words, they perform high and consistent levels of emotional labour. Emotional labour is the management of feelings to present appropriate and expected emotions in formal work-related interactions. Considering the importance of emotional labour to the work of assistance dogs, understanding it is central to discussing and improving an assistance dog’s emotional life and well-being. This webinar offers a holistic understanding of humane interspecies emotional labour. While performing emotional labour can be humane and enjoyable, some practices can be detrimental to an assistance dog’s emotional well-being. Therefore, following a presentation of the concept of humane interspecies emotional labour, this webinar discusses potential approaches to increase discourse of and support for it within both in academia and industry.

In this webinar, Jessica Hekman will take a deep dive into her own area of research – how genetics affects personality in dogs. How much of canine personality is due to genetics and how much to environment? How do researchers track down genes related to personality? Have any such genes yet been found? Can we expect a genetic test for dog reactivity any time soon? In this webinar, Jessica will particularly address examples from human literature about traits that are similar to reactivity in dogs, and will discuss the difficulties inherent in studying traits like drive and environmental versus handler focus, as well as possible solutions to those problems. As always, there will be something for everyone, so come listen and ask questions, whether you are just starting to wrap your head around genetics or whether you’re a confirmed science geek!

Presented by Kathy Sdao
Kathy Sdao is an applied animal behaviorist. She’s been a full-time animal trainer for thirty-five years, first with marine mammals and now with dogs and their people. At the University of Hawaii, she received a master’s degree as part of a research team which trained dolphins to understand sign-language. She then worked for the United States Navy to train dolphins for open-ocean military tasks. Kathy also worked as a marine-mammal trainer at the Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium in Tacoma Washington. After leaving the zoo world, she co-created Tacoma’s first dog daycare. Kathy launched Bright Spot Dog Training in 1998. Services include consulting with families about their challenging dogs and mentoring professional trainers who want to maximize the power of positive-reinforcement training. Kathy is proud to be an original faculty member for Karen Pryor’s ClickerExpos; she’s taught at thirty-nine of these popular conferences. Kathy has also lectured at venues across the United States, Canada and Europe, and in Australia, Israel, Japan and Mexico. In 2012, she published her first book, Plenty in Life Is Free: Reflections on Dogs, Training and Finding Grace.
When a client says this during our initial consultation, my response is “He’s not food-motivated yet.” Eating is an operant behavior. We can often increase its probability and intensity and lessen its latency through structured training procedures. Developing fluent eating might seem laughable if you have a ravenous Rottweiler or always-hungry hound, And yet, situations requiring skilled intervention abound: a senior dog whose appetite is fading; a wary dog who has learned to distrust treats; a pampered dog fussy about meals. While various medical conditions may contribute to the creation of a finicky eater, so can unwise behavioral practices. We’ll review several common mistakes and provide alternatives, including use of The Premack Principle.
AFTER PAYMENT YOU WILL BE REDIRECTED TO THE REPLAY.

Presented by Dr Frank McMillian
Franklin D. McMillan, DVM, served as the director of well-being studies at Best Friends Animal Society from 2007 to 2020. In that role, his studies included the quality-of-life and the mental health and emotional well-being of animals who have endured hardship,
adversity and psychological trauma. At Best Friends he has published in scientific journals the first studies of dogs rescued from puppy mills, hoarding situations, and abusive environments. In addition, he has published the most extensive reports of the psychological health of puppies born in puppy mills and sold through pet stores or over the Internet. The goals of all of these studies is to better understand the effects of trauma on animals and to develop new therapies to restore to them a life of enjoyment rather than having a life filled with fear and emotional distress as well as provide the science to support better animal protective legislation and improvements in the way animals are treated all around the world. Before coming to Best Friends, he was in private practice for 23 years as well as clinical professor of medicine at the Western University of Health Sciences College of Veterinary Medicine. Dr. McMillan is board-certified in the veterinary specialties of small animal internal medicine and animal welfare. He lectures worldwide and is the author of the textbook Mental Health and Well-Being in Animals and a book for the general public titled Unlocking the Animal Mind.
Social Pain in Dogs
The experience of unpleasant emotions is often referred to as “emotional pain”, such as when someone loses a loved one. The emotions that arise when one’s social bonds with another are impaired or lost – such as feelings of isolation, loneliness, and rejection – comprise one type of emotional pain, called “social pain”. Recent research has found that the term “pain” is not just a metaphor, but is based on the finding that social pain is
processed in the same brain regions where physical pain is processed. In addition, similar drugs can alleviate both physical and social pain. For social species, like elephants, horses, sheep, rats, guinea pigs, dogs, and humans, social pain plays a
powerful role in one’s well-being and quality of life. For today’s domestic dog, the issue may be of greater importance than for any other species on Earth. Evidence indicates that through domestication the emotional bonding propensity of dogs toward humans has been greatly amplified, which appears to have resulted in both greater joy for dogs when in the company of humans, but also greater suffering when denied human companionship. Only by educating all those who care for dogs will “man’s best friend” receive the care they so strongly deserve.

Crossing the Anxiety Barrier: Navigating the mental health issues of the pet owner:
Many people who have mental health issues such as anxiety are able to develop the skills to manage their symptoms through the utilization of professional and community support. But, what about those who do not recognize their symptoms? Now add a pandemic, lockdowns, and social isolation too. These circumstances complicate such challenges; and, as a result, interacting with anxious pet owners requires a better understanding of the symptoms of this mental health issue as well as a skill set that helps to make them more navigable.
This webinar will help you gain a better understanding of what is happening with your client and provide you with a variety of different approaches that can smooth the process of effective communication with the anxious pet owner.
Lori J. DeLeo, MAT, LMFT, is a licensed therapist who specializes in grief and trauma. She has worked extensively with first responders and helping professionals. Ms. DeLeo holds Masters degrees in Multicultural Education/Teaching and Marriage and Family Therapy. Additionally, she is certified in both Gestalt therapy and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing).

Presenter Bio: Roz has worked with dogs for 11 years, 8 of which as a behaviourist. During this time she has worked with over 100 street dogs for training and behaviour. She gained her Master’s Degree in Clinical Animal Behaviour with Edinburgh University in November 2020 and swiftly became a full CAB member of the APBC. She shares her home with four dogs, one of whom is a Thai Street dog who she has had for 9 years. Kanita, aka Feral Cole, is Roz’s greatest teacher. In addition to Kanita, Roz has a Spanish sighthound cross called Tooey and two Border Collies called Roo and Mohawk. She has previously had two other Spanish dogs, who have sadly passed away.
Presentation Information: Street dog numbers are on the rise in UK homes. Many of these dogs are ill prepared for life in family homes and busy, urban environments. Some are left traumatised from the adoption process, most notably transportation. Whilst some street dogs slot into their new lives as well as their domestic breed conspecifics and may even be hard to identify as a ‘streetie’, others seem somewhat different to the average domestic dog in terms of their behaviour. This webinar details the common behaviour problems reported in street dogs. Delving into the research on free ranging dogs and the presenter’s anecdotal experience as to what may be going on in that primitive dog brain of theirs and what we can do to help them!

Being a thoroughly horsey lady, Jenni also has an Equine Science degree (BSc Hons) from the University of Wales, Aberystwyth where she was first introduced to hill pony life, through her dissertation field study on Welsh hill pony behaviour.
Presentation Details:
Have you ever wondered about the lives of feral ponies? On a hill in Wales pony population management decreased, and the ponies formed more natural groups. There was a golden window of opportunity to follow these ponies; to watch, learn and record through film. Wales might feel wild, but it doesn’t have any true wild lands where ponies can become truly wild, and so the feral pony bubble burst.
This presentation brings to you never before seen footage of the feral ponies in their native landscape, acting out their wild lives. It also brings to you the story of Felix and Co. Free-living ponies who got to retain some of their freedom in new lives as conservation grazing ponies, includIng some insights into clinical behavioural work with unhandled ponies, both fearful and/or formerly feral.

Have you ever wondered about the lives of feral ponies? On a hill in Wales pony population management decreased, and the ponies formed more natural groups. There was a golden window of opportunity to follow these ponies; to watch, learn and record through film. Wales might feel wild, but it doesn’t have any true wild lands where ponies can become truly wild, and so the feral pony bubble burst.
This presentation brings to you never before seen footage of the feral ponies in their native landscape, acting out their wild lives. It also brings to you the story of Felix and Co. Free-living ponies who got to retain some of their freedom in new lives as conservation grazing ponies, includIng some insights into clinical behavioural work with unhandled ponies, both fearful and/or formerly feral.

Scentwork has taken off across the world as a fun activity to share with your dog, and there are a whole range of methods and approaches. While some methods concentrate on competition, there’s increasing interest in the use of scentwork and nose games within behaviour modification programmes.
We’ll refresh your knowledge of basic scentwork approaches and their effects on the canine brain. Then using a mixture of case studies and video we will explore how scentwork can play a key role in behaviour modification for a range of commonly presenting problems in dogs including fear, frustration and more.

I build better relationships between troubled dogs and their humans, and I’ve been working as a canine behaviourist for over 12 years now. Playing scentwork games with my own dogs, as well as with my clients, was life changing. I was fortunate to be an Accredited TD Scentwork Trainer (2014-2017) and have introduced hundreds of dogs to the joy of sniffing.
Scentwork is one of my favourite tools when it comes to creating an effective training plan or behaviour modification programme, and I can’t wait to share the magic with you!

Event Details
Companion animal enrichment free webinar with Mark Kingston Jones from the SHAPE of enrichment. Mark will guide you through how the enrichment used for zoo animals can help your pets to remain stimulated, in good health and reduce anxiety during this lockdown period.
The Shape of Enrichment is dedicated to creating holistic and goal driven enrichment programmes for any animals in captive care. With everyone being on lockdown, humans and animals are both adjusting to a new temporary activity budget, which may need some mitigation, while also creating a perfect opportunity to develop enrichment ideas that can be tested now, and then continue to be applied once restrictions are lifted.
This presentation will go through the SHAPE approach to designing and developing enrichment, and explore ways to apply ideas we frequently use in the exotic animal field for mental and physical wellbeing, for domestic animals

Valerie is an Irish Veterinarian who graduated from the Veterinary College of Ireland in 2003. Valerie has worked in Wales, Belgium and India. She currently lives and works in The Netherlands where she has been for the past 11 years. Valerie has worked in farm animal, companion animal and equine practice. She has a Masters in Laboratory Animal Science (Ghent University, Belgium) and a Certificate in Animal Welfare Science, Ethics and Law (Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons, UK). Valerie is a Diplomate of the ECAWBM (subspeciality Behavioural Medicine) and also of the subspeciality Animal Welfare Science, Ethics and Law. Valerie is a member of the Editorial Board for the Journal of Veterinary Behavior and the Fear Free LLC Advisory Board.
After her time in India, Valerie spent almost 4 years at the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Utrecht University in the Netherlands where she worked as a behaviour veterinarian, behaviour/welfare researcher and lecturer.
Valerie then set up Animalytics, her own Veterinary Behavioural Medicine and Animal Welfare Consultancy (www.animalytics.nl). During her seven years with Animalytics, she also consulted at the Dutch Specialist Veterinary Referral Clinic de Wagenrenk (www.wagenrenk.com). In 2019 Valerie became Head of Behaviour and Welfare for IVC Evidensia The Netherlands. Valerie sees companion animal behavioural medicine cases at Evidensia Animal Hospital Nieuwegein. Other species (horses, research animals, zoo animals and farm animals) are seen for behavioural medicine or welfare consultations on location. Valerie currently teaches behavioural medicine and animal welfare science in the IVC Evidensia Academy and is also very well known in the international lecturing circuit.
Presentation Detail: This lecture is designed to give the equine veterinary practitioner a basic understanding of how the brain can be influenced by psychopharmacological and other interventions to facilitate desirable behaviour change in horses. Although only a veterinarian can diagnose and treat medical conditions in animals, it will be of interest to equine behaviour practitioners as well. As although non-veterinarians may not diagnose and prescribe medical conditions in animals, it is important than equine behaviour practitioners have an understanding of these matters.

She is the cofounder, with Tracie Faa-Thompson of the UK, of the field of Animal Assisted Play Therapy® and heads the International Institute for Animal Assisted Play Therapy®. Core values and practices of this approach include heavy emphasis on reciprocal relationships between humans and animals and full attention to animal well-being. Her book with Tracie, Animal Assisted Play Therapy, won a major award in 2018 as the best book in the human-animal bond category. Dr. VanFleet also works with highly fearful, traumatized, unsocialised, and feral dogs using play as an important aspect of the multi-modal intervention. She is well-known for her work around the globe in speaking, training, and writing.
This webinar will explore current knowledge about the importance of play in animals’ lives, what constitutes healthy play, and how natural play behaviours can be elicited and harnessed in helping intensely fearful dogs and other animals. She draws on her decades of experience conducting play therapy with children and families, doing behavioural work with animals, and observing/studying the play of Alaskan brown bears in the wild. The neurobiological significance of play as a helping mechanism will also be covered. The bulk of the presentation will focus on practical aspects of including play to foster healthy development and reciprocal social interactions in animals, including with conspecifics and with humans when appropriate.

She currently lives and works in The Netherlands where she has been for the past 11 years. Valerie has worked in farm animal, companion animal and equine practice. She has a Masters in Laboratory Animal Science (Ghent University, Belgium) and a Certificate in Animal Welfare Science, Ethics and Law (Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons, UK). Valerie is a Diplomate of the ECAWBM (subspeciality Behavioural Medicine) and also of the subspeciality Animal Welfare Science, Ethics and Law. Valerie is a member of the Editorial Board for the Journal of Veterinary Behavior and the Fear Free LLC Advisory Board.
After her time in India, Valerie spent almost 4 years at the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Utrecht University in the Netherlands where she worked as a behaviour veterinarian, behaviour/welfare researcher and lecturer.
Valerie then set up Animalytics, her own Veterinary Behavioural Medicine and Animal Welfare Consultancy (www.animalytics.nl). During her seven years with Animalytics, she also consulted at the Dutch Specialist Veterinary Referral Clinic de Wagenrenk (www.wagenrenk.com). In 2019 Valerie became Head of Behaviour and Welfare for IVC Evidensia The Netherlands. Valerie sees companion animal behavioural medicine cases at Evidensia Animal Hospital Nieuwegein. Other species (horses, research animals, zoo animals and farm animals) are seen for behavioural medicine or welfare consultations on location. Valerie currently teaches behavioural medicine and animal welfare science in the IVC Evidensia Academy and is also very well known in the international lecturing circuit.
Presentation Detail: Along with part 1 this lecture is designed to give the equine veterinary practitioner a basic understanding of how the brain can be influenced by psychopharmacological and other interventions to facilitate desirable behaviour change in horses. Although only a veterinarian can diagnose and treat medical conditions in animals, it will be of interest to equine behaviour practitioners as well. As although non-veterinarians may not diagnose and prescribe medical conditions in animals, it is important than equine behaviour practitioners have an understanding of these matters.

Presented By Jean Donaldson, originally broadcast on 20/08/2020
Is there such a thing as over-socialization? What is “arousal” and is it a useful term? Should we strive to reduce or eliminate errors when dogs are learning? How should we curate and monitor play opportunities for puppies, and for dogs?
In most jurisdictions, dog training and behavior counseling are unregulated, and where they are regulated, there is usually not a mandate for evidence-based practice. This has resulted in fertile ground for fads to take hold. This webinar will look at how research on cognitive biases makes dog behavior practitioners susceptible to untested or demonstrably untrue ideas and practices.
Presenter Information
Jean is the founder and principle instructor of The Academy for Dog Trainers. The celebrated its twentieth anniversary in 2019. She is a four-time winner of The Dog Writers’ Association of America’s Maxwell Award. In 2017, Jean was recruited to create Dog Training 101 for The Great Courses.
Born in Montreal, Canada, Jean founded the Montreal Flyball Association, and Renaissance Dog Training, the first positive reinforcement-based school and counseling service in the province. Her own dogs and dogs she has trained have earned numerous titles and wins in a variety of dog sports, including OTCh, TDX, HIT and FDCh. While a student, she worked as an adoption counselor at the Montreal SPCA and later served on its Board of Directors. Before founding The Academy, Jean did exclusively referral aggression cases for six years. She lives in Oakland, California, with her dog, Brian, adopted in 2015.

Finding a balance between theory and real-life can be challenging. Science-based knowledge on body language and our inferences of the underlying emotional motivations can help us to adapt our behaviour towards our patients and improve interactions. Within a veterinary setting, there can be a sense of urgency and time pressure. In this webinar we will look at how we can best interpret our patients’ emotional states and therefore, mental health, to respond to each individual appropriately and set them up to succeed.

Scentwork Solutions for Abnormal & Repetitive Behaviours, Fears & Phobias; understanding how scentwork can help in complex behaviour cases
Presented by: Morag Heirs
Scentwork has taken off across the world as a fun activity to share with your dog, and there are a whole range of methods and approaches. While some methods concentrate on competition, there’s increasing interest in the use of scentwork and nose games within behaviour modification programmes.
Using a mixture of case studies and video we will explore how scentwork can play a key role in behaviour modification for a range of complex presenting problems in dogs including abnormal and repetitive behaviours and fear.

You can’t give what you don’t have
For those of us in the role of helping professionals, compassion fatigue is real, and it is the direct result of repeated exposure to highly emotional and traumatic situations. Consequently, when dealing with people and/or their pets and having to make difficult decisions that affect both on a regular basis, all too often we forget that we need to take care of ourselves.
What is the difference between compassion fatigue and vicarious trauma? How do these manifest themselves and impact our ability to show up as our best selves in our personal and professional lives? How can we address these issues in practical and impactful ways? This webinar will help you identify the signs of what some refer to as “burn out” and will assist in providing you with quality emotional self-care.
Lori J. DeLeo, MAT, LMFT, is a licensed therapist who specializes in grief and trauma. She has worked extensively with first responders and helping professionals.
