Educational Webinar 1: Reserve your place

As part of National Adoption Month, GAP Victoria is hosting two free Educational Webinars.
The first of these is with the RSPCA’s Liam Deans-Pope, on Thursday 13 April from 8-9.30pm, with the session to focus on dog behaviour and training.
Liam has worked in the animal welfare industry for the over twelve years and as a behavioural trainer for the past six.
During this time, he has enjoyed the opportunity to work with a wide variety of domestic animals across Victoria in a range of roles, including an animal management officer for a local council, an assessor of retired racing Greyhounds and most recently as the senior animal trainer for a rescue organisation.
Liam feels strongly that the human animal bond is a thing to be treasured, a belief that is reflected in his commitment to scientifically validated, force-free training methods.
He understands that companion animal training and management is an ever-evolving field and is always seeking to further his knowledge and understanding.
Liam has a particular passion for working with fearful and/or reactive dogs, having owned more than a few of them himself.

Jacko ARP
Jacko's dream is to be in a home witha family that can include him all of their activities; he is up for camping,going to the café, beer garden, local markets, you name it! He loves nothingmore than human attention and affection. He may suit living with another dog ofsimilar size or if living as an only dog may need to have some training earlyon to learn to be home alone. He may suit living with children aged 10 yearsand older.

Boppy ARP
Are you ready to get Boppy!! Cause this sweet girl is ready to take on life with her own family and show them what having fun is all about. Boppy is an affectionate and happy girl that thinks life is GREAT! She cant wait to have many adventures in her new home with possibly some side kicks (children 10 and over) or just a fun loving owner that is wanting to get out and about and “Bop” around. We also think she may suit living with another medium or larger male dog companion and full time workers.

Zoom ARP
How adorable is Zoom? She is a lovely, quiet and sweet girl who thinks the world is a bit of a scary place. She will be looking for someone special who can show her the way and help her to build her confidence. She really tries hard to please so we think she will flower into a lovely dog. Zoom might be best suited to a quieter home with no children, however she may suit full time workers.

Xinji ARP
Xinji (pronounced Shin-jee) is a lovely young girl who has a world of love to give you. She can be a bit of a worrier and can be shy when she first meets you, but with a little bit of time and patience, we know she will blossom into a wonderful companion. She walks well on the lead and will be looking for a quiet household to settle into. She may be happy living with or without another canine companion of any size, though she would prefer having access to a backyard. She may also suit full time workers and living with children aged in their teens.
