Are you prepared to care for and adapt to the changing needs of a senior dog? As pet owners, we actively seek guidance in raising our puppies and provide training to our adolescent or adult dogs. Yet we don't always recognize our senior dogs' age and provide adequate care and adjust our training accordingly. Join Yuching Desch, Marin Humane dog training instructor and Certified Dog Behavior Consultant for an in-depth look at signs of aging and frailty, how to adapt your home, new training and enrichment needs, taking care of yourself as the caregiver, working with your vet, quality of life considerations, and saying goodbye. There will be time to answer your questions during the live Zoom, and a recording will be available after. Zoom login instructions will be provided 1 week before the webinar.
What's your dog trying to tell you? We pick up on the loud or obvious communication signals our dogs send (bark, growl, paw, lunge), but these barely scratch the surface of what our dogs are thinking and feeling. And many of the signals we think we understand may mean something entirely different! Join Yuching Desch, Marin Humane dog training instructor and Certified Dog Behavior Consultant for an in-depth look at canine body language, cutoff signals (how the dog says "no" politely before the growl/lunge), indications of fear or anxiety, when to intervene to avoid an aggressive response, types of aggression, and fostering trust. This webinar is appropriate for guardians and pet professionals. A recording will be available if you can't join live. Zoom login instructions will be provided 1 week before the webinar.
