Leslie McDevitt - Power of the Scatter: Using CU Enrichment Patterns to Access Calm Behavior
Date: Thursday, March 19th, 2026
Time: 3pm Pacific Time (Click here for time at FDSA (Pacific Time).
Fee: $19.95 USD
If you’re looking to help your dog find their "calm" naturally, Scatter Stations (affectionately known as LATTE) is one of the most effective tools in the Control Unleashed toolkit. It’s Leslie McDevitt’s personal favorite because it fosters regulated behavior without the pressure of a high-effort "work" mindset.
In this webinar, Leslie dives deep into applying LATTE across various environments. Through exclusive video footage of dogs currently practicing in her classes, you’ll see exactly how the game transitions from a simple exercise to a powerful real-world tool.
Whether you're managing reactivity or just want a more relaxed partner, these examples prove that a calmer path is possible for every dog.

Kim Palermo - Control Unleashed for the Sports Dog
Date: Thursday, March 19th, 2026
Time: 6pm Pacific Time (Click here for time at FDSA (Pacific Time).
Fee: $19.95 USD
Learn how Control Unleashed skills can help you progress from the training room into the ring! This is one of the most common questions that I get asked as a Certified Control Unleashed Instructor who competes in and works with others in the dog sport world: how does this apply to actual trials?
I will discuss three skills and how we can use those to recognize our dog’s fluency baseline. Once that’s been determined, these skills can help you add challenges and variations to your sports skills in a way that allows for flexibility, success, and ring readiness. They can also be utilized to determine your dog’s comfort in new environments, including the trial environment. And finally, Control Unleashed skills are a fantastic way to provide an arrival routine, exit strategy, and arousal evaluation throughout the entire day of competition. They will allow your dog to comfortably take in the environment so that they are prepared when it’s time to focus solely on you and the job at hand.
The three skills that will be discussed are multifaceted in that they help provide predictability in novel environments, calm the nervous system, and aid in acclimation. Come learn how CU can help you succeed in the ring!

Christina Young - Are They Having Fun Yet? Teaching Polite Dog-Dog Play
Date: Thursday, March 26th, 2026
Time: 3pm Pacific Time (Click here for time at FDSA (Pacific Time).
Fee: $19.95 USD
Not every dog comes with polished social skills. Some play too rough. Some get overwhelmed. Some don’t know how to say “no,” and some don’t know how to listen.
Healthy play has a rhythm — a back-and-forth. And once you know what to look for, it becomes much easier to tell the difference between fun and play that’s tipping into stress.
In this webinar, you’ll learn how to spot early signs that things are getting uncomfortable, and step in calmly before small misunderstandings turn into bigger problems, helping our dogs learn to be polite players.
Polite Play Is a Conversation
“Do you want to play with me?”
“Yes!”
“Chase me?”
“Okay!”
“My turn?”
“Sure!”
“I need a break.”
“Got it.”
“Ready again?”
“Not yet.”
“Okay.”
When you recognize the conversation, you can step in constructively — teaching your dog to be a more respectful, confident communicator.

Irith Bloom - Dealing with Over-the-Top Behavior: A Practical Tool-Kit
Date: Thursday, April 2nd, 2026
Time: 3pm Pacific Time (Click here for time at FDSA (Pacific Time).
Fee: $19.95 USD
Over-excited, over-the-top, out-of-control... Does this sound like a dog you know?
If so, they probably have over-arousal issues! Over-arousal can be a factor in many different behavior issues in dogs*, from hyperactivity to aggression. Teaching animals how to handle arousal can change their lives – and ours – for the better.
*NOTE: The concepts in this webinar apply to species other than dogs, too!
In this webinar, we will explore a range of tools for helping the over-aroused animal in your life. Topics covered include arousal and how it affects behavior, determining which “problem” behaviors relate to over-arousal (and which probably don’t), training games you can use to help the animals in your life learn to manage their arousal levels, and more.
Whether you want to teach your dog better manners around guests or are desperately trying to avoid a repeat of that bite to the mailman, this webinar is for you!

Jennifer Summerfield, DVM - The Scoop On Poop: Optimizing Gut Health For Your Dog
Date: Thursday, April 2nd, 2026
Time: 6pm Pacific Time (Click here for time at FDSA (Pacific Time).
Fee: $19.95 USD
Gut health is a hot topic in the veterinary community right now, for good reason! A growing body of evidence over the past several years suggests that, for both humans and animals, changes in the normal population of bacteria living in our intestinal tract can have far-reaching effects on health and wellness.
In this webinar, we’ll discuss the following:
- How a healthy GI tract functions, and where things can go awry
- Impact of gut microbiota on other body systems, with examples from recent clinical research
- Prebiotics, probiotics, and other supplements
- The evolving field of fecal analysis – how does it work, and is it useful?
There’s still a lot we don’t fully understand about the world of intestinal flora… but the more we learn about this complex biological system, the more effectively we’ll be able to troubleshoot problems when they arise. So join Dr. Jen for an in-depth discussion on everything you’ve ever wanted to know about your dog’s poop!
