Cat and Dog Integrations - The Basics IAABC Sponsor |
"Everyday, all over the world, cats and dogs are successfully integrated by simply employing a degree of supervision, effort, and patience. The relationship can end up fairly smooth after just a few weeks and, while they may or may not be best of friends, the two species can learn to cohabitate in mutual harmony. There are also countless cases where the relationship isn't going so well but life simply carries on ""as is,"" even though one half of the relationship isn't happy. Unfortunately, almost always it's the cat who loses. So many end up existing in a shrun... | Feb. 11, 2022 - Feb. 11, 2027 | Online / Remote Learning | Katenna Jones, ScM, ACAAB, CCBC, CDBC, Certified Fear Free Trainer | 2.00 |

Probiotics for Behavioral Health IAABC Sponsor |

Are there side effects? What's the best brand to buy, or can you make your own?

Mental Health and Performance Dogs: A New Paradigm IAABC Sponsor |
"Just five years ago, the popular magazine Scientific American published an article musing that animals shared similar mental capabilities as humans and, thus, might be capable of similar mental health disorders. The suggestion was that such a claim, that animals feel complicated things, was amusing and even comical. Yet, this realization might be scoffed at by anyone who has ever brought their pet to the veterinary clinic or stepped inside of a competition ring with their dog. Of course, animals feel stress and anxiety and more! But while science has spent decades creating, vali... | Feb. 11, 2022 - Feb. 11, 2027 | Online / Remote Learning | Sophie Liu DVM | 2.00 |

How health and age affect behavior and why birds need a specialized avian veterinarian IAABC Sponsor |
Dr. Orosz is renowned for her knowledge of anatomy, neuroscience, diagnostics, diseases, aging birds, herbals, and nutrition. Since a bird’s health will have a major influence on its behavior, it’s important to make sure our parrots are receiving regular veterinary care from an avian specialist. Some behavior problems can be addressed by simply improving a bird’s health status - which includes a quality diet, sleep, space, attention to aging issues, labs, and disease management. | Oct. 28, 2023 - Oct. 28, 2026 | Online / Remote Learning | Dr Susan Orosz, DVM | 1.50 |

Parrot Behavior in Social Context: How nature influences pet bird keeping IAABC Sponsor |
Keeping parrots as pets and aviary birds has a long tradition in the human-animal relationship. Of the nearly 400 species of parrots, 80 species are regularly kept as pets. Each species has its own social behavior, environmental and nutritional needs. In this presentation, we will focus on the social structure of the different parrot species, how it affects communication in the flock where the birds live, and how this behavior affects communication with the bird owner.
