    Hi everyone,

    I'm excited to announce that during our next job-alike meeting on Thurs Oct 26 at 9 am PT/noon ET, we'll be joined by  Erin Jones who will be talking about The Ethical Application of LIMA (Least Intrusive Minimally Aversive) in Shelter Behavior. 

    This presentation will cover:

    •  Each level of the Humane Hierarchy of Behaviour Change
    • How we would evaluate cases ethically and reduce aversive/intrusiveness in practice (adherence in a challenging environment)
    • Considerations for a busy shelter environment 
    •  Case examples
    •  Learning opportunities through the IAABC Foundation and other additional resources 
    About our speaker: Erin is a Certified Dog Behavior Consultant (CDBC) and Accredited Dog Trainer (ADT) with the International Association of Animal Behavior Consultants (IAABC), a Certified Professional Dog Trainer (CPDT-KA) with the Certification Council for Professional Dog Trainers (CCPDT), and an Accredited Animal Behaviour Consultant (ABC) with Companion Animals New Zealand (CANZ).
