2022 SCHEDULE

November 21st, 2022: Heart Wildlife: Wildlife Proofing Your Home! 5:30pm in person at HSCC & via Zoom (Link to Register HERE!)

Join HEART Wildlife Removal (Humane Eviction And Removal Team) and learn about how to live humanely with wildlife, how to help wildlife when they are in need and prevent them from moving into your home. We'll cover common topics, such as living humanly with black bear, how to know if a wildling needs to be rescued, resources for when finding a bat in your home and how to prevent wildlife from taking advantage of common areas of your home.

Previous Eduation Seminars: 

Friday, September 30th: THINK DOG! (View the presentation HERE and watch the recording HERE!)

Once you can get inside the mind of your dog, communication will become easier, teaching will be super fun, and your overall relationship will blossom. Whether you are struggling with a quirky canine or have a near-perfect pooch, learning how to "Think Dog" will benefit you and all the dogs you know. 

Wednesday, March 10th: "HEART Wildlife: Wildlife Proofing Your Home!" (watch the recording HERE)

Are squirrels, raccoons, birds, and other wild animals winding up where they are not welcome? Learn how to humanely wildlife-proof your home or business from the kindhearted pros at HEART Wildlife Removal! 

Wednesday, May 12th: "Kids & Dogs: Best Friends?" (watch the recording HERE)

Explore the relationship between two of our most beloved family members and learn how they can coexist happily and safely. Teaching kiddos how to respect a dog's space and care for them goes a long way in strengthening their bond, and can even help keep pets with their families. If you're looking to add a dog or child to your household, this just may be the perfect event for you!

*POSTPONED* Wednesday, July 14th: "Animal Transports: Behind the Scenes!"

Learn all about what goes into an animal transport, what HSCC does to ensure responsible medical protocols, why they are important to both the local community & those where the animals are coming from, and how transport saves more lives! 

*Due to the pandemic, all seminars will take place on Zoom from 5:30 - 7:00 pm. Links will be provided 24 hours before the seminar on the Facebook event page (click the seminar titles above) or by contacting Erin at erina@hsccvt.org*
