If you are interested in dogs then you'll be interested in this webinar. For all trainers and behaviourists the emotional welfare of the dogs we meet and work with is the most important consideration, with a good understanding of dogs displaying abnormal repetitive behaviours you can make the difference!
Abnormal Repetitive Behaviours (ARBs)
The behaviours are normal! The level of repetition is abnormal!
A comprehensive overview of extremely complex and often distressing conditions
This webinar explores all the potential issues, their aetiology and the behavioural responses shown by animals suffering from these conditions
We discuss in detail the rule outs that are necessary to be certain that dogs’ responses are purely behavioural and not the fallout from other treatable conditions, or manageable stimuli within the environment
The approaches discussed also consider other domesticated and zoo animals, how the welfare and mental wellbeing of these animals can be improved, and how this can be adapted when looking at dogs displaying repetitive behaviours
The approach to the issues discussed is a holistic one, we discuss not only how important the liaison with vets is in these cases, but also how we can make a huge difference to the dogs’ mental wellbeing and overall welfare by analysing and changing the environment they live in, and how educating the carers and changing their responses is equally important to the overall prognosis
The webinar is in two parts discussing the areas shown below: -
•Definitions
•Genetics
•Emotions
•Breed Propensity
•The Brain
•Stereotypies vs. stereotypical
•Stress and displacement behaviours
•Other species
•Dogs – breed disposition and research studies
•Dogs – behavioural signs
•Treatment Plans
•Medical Rule ‘ins & outs’
•Foundation Training
•Approaching Behaviour Change

Done a few IMDT courses but this is the first pre-recorded webinar I have done. What was good is that I can refer back to it when I need to. What was brilliant was the webinar, well presented, lots of information that is new to me particularly about the brain. I will be coming back for more - well done IMDT

Staggering how much details this webinar goes into. Wasn't expecting to get as much out of it as I did. Thank you IMDT!
