ICAWC 2015 - Claire Calder - EU Activity UpdateDogs Trust
The EU Dog & Cat Alliance was launched at ICAWC in 2014 and is made up of dog and cat welfare organisations from across the EU, which have come together to lobby for action to protect dogs and cats.
This talk will give an update on EU activities and the Alliance’s achievements so far. This includes their work on puppy smuggling, as well as the launch of a ground-breaking report which brings together the national legislation on dog and cat breeding and trade in all 28 EU countries for the first time.
ICAWC 2015 - Workshop - Breed Specific Training - Carolyn Menteith Dogs Trust
This workshop will talk about how dog breeds and types have been developed, as well as how individual dogs develop and what this means for the people working with them. This will give an insight into why a ‘one size fits all’ training and behaviour approach won’t work, and instead how to recognise all dogs as individuals and give them the best chance to succeed.
ICAWC 2015 - Paul Wass & Alasdair Bunyan - Building for future welfare Dogs Trust
This presentation looks at the design constraints that Dogs Trust had to overcome when building their latest centre in Manchester on an industrial estate.
ICAWC 2015 - When Love Breaks Down - Sandra Duarte CardosoDogs Trust
Sandra discusses the findings from a study which recorded the reasons for relinquishment of dogs and cats in the municipalities of Sintra and Cascais, both districts in Lisbon.
Heather will illustrate a pilot welfare assessment protocol which has been trialed and refined at two existing TNR programmes. The authors have identified gaps in current understanding and interpretation of dog behaviours, highlighting the need for a solid understanding of canine behavioural communication.
ICAWC 2015 - The Power of Play - Alasdair BunyanDogs Trust
Play can be used as a highly valuable reinforcement, but in order to use play in our training a greater awareness of breed specific play styles and canine communication must be understood.
Alasdair will discuss the importance of play, play styles, appropriate and inappropriate play and thoughts on motivation and how to use play as reinforcement to both the handlers and dog’s benefit.
