This document discusses resource management and home management. It defines resources as anything that can assist in completing a task, and lists different types of resources including human, money, commodities, and community resources. It then discusses home management, defining it as the skillful handling of resources in the home to provide a healthy environment for the family. Key aspects of home management include caring for family, managing finances and diet, and physical tasks like cleaning. The document provides information on cleaning management, agents, equipment, and ergonomics. It also discusses electrical appliances and factors to consider when buying them.
Technology has been applied in practical ways in the home, including making food preparation and storage faster and more convenient through appliances like microwaves, food processors, automatic ovens, and fridges/freezers. Technology has also improved household materials and cleaning through items like ceramic hobs, stainless steel, plastic, and better cleaning agents and equipment. Computers further allow households to manage budgets, files, entertainment, communication, shopping, banking, and more from home.
Electricity enters homes through service cables and passes through the electricity provider's fuse and meter before reaching the main fuse box. The fuse box contains a main switch to cut off electricity for repairs and distributes power around the house via wires. Appliances contain at least two wires - a live wire that brings in electricity and a neutral wire that returns it, along with an earth wire for safety. Electricity is used in homes for cooking, heating, water heating, lighting, and running appliances. Fuses act as safety devices to cut off electricity in the event of a fault.

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.
ICAWC 2015 - Reinforcing the Canine Human Bond Through Training - Alasdair Bu...Dogs Trust
The working relationship between the handler and the dog, and the dog’s understanding of the concept of training should be built prior to any intense behavioural modification taking place. Alasdair will discuss the working relationship fundamentals and then the prime behaviours that should be implemented before any behavioural modification takes place.
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 - Ins and outs of homing cats - David NewallDogs Trust

ICAWC 2015 - The Full Monty - Harry Eckman (Change For Animals Foundation) & ...Dogs Trust
This document summarizes a community-based dog and cat welfare project in Praia de Faro, Portugal run by Animais de Rua and the Change For Animals Foundation. The project conducted assessments of the local animal populations and community attitudes, implemented sterilization and vaccination programs, and continued monitoring impacts. Over the course of two years, the project sterilized over 95% of the local cat population and 67% of dogs, improved animal welfare, engaged the local community, and developed a replicable model for other locations.
ICAWC 2015 - If you build it they will come - Sandra Duarte CardosoDogs Trust
SOS Animal was founded in 2005 as a nonprofit organization in Portugal that focuses on providing veterinary care and treatment for abandoned and mistreated companion animals. Their goal is to create the first social hospital for animals to accommodate at-risk animals in Lisbon, abandoned animals in their care or other partner organizations, and to support the animals of people with financial difficulties. They also work to promote mass sterilization efforts and raise awareness about responsible pet ownership and animal welfare issues through educational campaigns. To achieve their dream of the social hospital, they have had to work persistently and sacrifice weekends and social time.
ICAWC 2015 - Humane Community Development - Kate Nattrass Atema Dogs Trust
This document outlines Kate Nattrass Atema's "Humane Community Development" approach to dog population management. The approach focuses on building understanding, relationships, and commitment within communities to develop sustainable solutions. It involves community assessments, stakeholder workshops to share perspectives and identify root causes of issues, and action planning workshops where communities prioritize problems and solutions. The approach was piloted in several locations, where it led communities to take ownership and develop original, creative plans focusing on animal welfare. Challenges included maintaining momentum, but benefits included less blaming and different viewpoints not blocking solutions. The approach requires patience and recognizes that sustainability involves relationship-building skills rather than specific dog-related interventions.
Dogs Trust, with the help of Animal Rights Protection Lithuania, has undertaken two investigations looking at the illegal import of puppies across the EU. Despite conclusive evidence from the 1st investigation being presented to the EU and national government along with a series of urgent recommendations set out by Dogs Trust to help curb the trade, the puppy trafficking trade has continued unabated. In early 2015, Dogs Trust went back into Eastern Europe to highlight that the Pet Travel Scheme (PETS) is still being used as a cover by commercial breeders and dealers in Lithuania and Romania on a regular basis to illegally import puppies, often in horrendous conditions, and transporting them thousands of miles without their mothers.

Dogs Trust, with the help of Animal Rights Protection Lithuania, has undertaken two investigations looking at the illegal import of puppies across the EU.
This document discusses building a healthy "bank account" for animals through positive experiences and interactions. It describes how genetics, early experiences, and past treatment form an animal's "opening balance", and how current caregivers can make "deposits" through gentle handling, praise, play, and ensuring physical and emotional well-being, or "withdrawals" through negative experiences like rough handling or stress. It stresses making regular small deposits to improve an animal's confidence and temperament over time through consistency, patience and trust-building.

ICAWC 2015 - I Second that Emotion - Carolyn MenteithDogs Trust
This document discusses how a dog's behavior is driven by underlying emotions like fear, pleasure, and frustration. It explains that to change problem behaviors, one needs to change the emotion driving it by replacing negative emotions with more positive ones through training. The document advocates for using positive reinforcement to increase behaviors by providing pleasure, rather than positive punishment which increases fear and can make behaviors worse. It concludes that dogs will repeat behaviors that bring them pleasure or relief from negative stimuli through training.

He stressed the importance of getting clients invested in development plans through marketing and securing buy-in for new designs.
