FOUNDERS:

創(chuàng)始人：

Amy:?Amy has the passion,?persistence, and fight to bring the topic of canid conservation into mainstream.? Through the JABCECC, she will develop relationships with diverse organizations, academics, experts, industries, companies and people to find targeted ways to work together to better understand the key issues affecting canids, realistic solutions, and barriers to the implementation of those solutions.? Amy has worked closely in the scientific space with not only the ICG, but with other key opinion leaders and those driving efforts in research and conservation.??She is an expert in clinical trials and the execution of clinical protocols for publication and regulatory review.??Using this expertise and her love for animals, she will direct the research efforts at the JABCECC.?? Above all, it is her unyielding motivation to fight for those animals that have no voice, no audience, and no solutions.? Whether it is the horrific use of animals in the fur industry, culling wolves,?coyotes and wild dogs, ?destroying the precious genetic integrity of primitive dog breeds, or rescuing shelter dogs, she will put her entire soul and heart into making a difference.? Using the Ambassador foxes and other canids, she will strive to demonstrate the value of each species and each individual within the species and provide evidence based solutions and strategies for conservation.

　　Amy：Amy有激情，有毅力，她為將保護(hù)犬科動物引入主流話題而奮斗。通過JABCECC，她將與不同的組織、學(xué)者、專家、行業(yè)、公司和個人建立聯(lián)系，找到有針對性的合作方式，更好地了解影響犬科動物的關(guān)鍵問題、現(xiàn)實的解決方案以及實施這些方案會遇到的阻礙。Amy在科學(xué)領(lǐng)域不僅與ICG密切合作，而且與其他關(guān)鍵主張的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)者以及開展研究和保護(hù)工作的人密切合作。她是臨床試驗和臨床方案出版及監(jiān)管審查執(zhí)行方面的專家。利用她的專業(yè)知識和對動物的熱愛，她將指導(dǎo)JABCECC的研究工作。最重要的是，為那些沉默的、沒有人了解的、沒有受到保護(hù)的動物而戰(zhàn)，是她不屈不撓的動力。無論是抵制在毛皮工業(yè)中對動物的可怕加工，捕殺狼、郊狼和野狗，破壞原始犬種珍貴的基因完整性，還是拯救收容所的狗，她都會全身心地投入到改變這些中去。利用大使狐貍和其他犬科動物，她將努力展示每個物種和物種內(nèi)每個個體的價值，并為保護(hù)它們提供有效的解決方案和策略。

Dave:??Dave is not only our animal behaviorist, he is the creative intelligence of the JABCECC.?Dave has over 40+ years in K9 breeding and training, specializing in?obedience and utility work.? He has also spent his life as an entrepreneur as a biomechanical engineer developing prosthetics.? Dave is truly an out of the box thinker who is able to bring technology and concepts from various professions and combine them together to create novel solutions to a new area.? If it doesn't defy the laws of physics, Dave will find a way to make it happen. It is fairly evident he is Judi's son, and has taken the "watch me" philosophy to how he lives his life.? This skill-set combined with his intelligence and ability to connect with and understand animals will be instrumental in developing the foundation for the direction of the JABCECC.?? Dave's passion for animals, canines in particular,?and his confidence,? with the support of Amy,? can truly change the landscape for Conservation groups. This has inspired him to create the JAB Canid Education and Conservation Center with Amy.??Through interactive education, research programs, and animal assisted therapy programs with our Ambassador canids,?the JABCECC can truly make an impact on the lives of their wild and captive bred counterparts.

　　Dave：Dave不僅是我們的動物行為學(xué)家，他還是JABCECC的創(chuàng)意天才。Dave在K9[諧音同canine，指犬科]育種和訓(xùn)練方面有40多年的經(jīng)驗，專門從事服從性和功能性訓(xùn)練工作。他一生都是一名企業(yè)家，也是一名致力于開發(fā)假肢的生物力學(xué)工程師。Dave非常具有創(chuàng)造性思維，他能夠?qū)⒉煌瑢I(yè)的技術(shù)和概念結(jié)合起來，為一個新領(lǐng)域的問題提出新穎的解決方案。如果不違背物理定律，Dave會想辦法實現(xiàn)的。他是Judith的兒子，他把“watch me[看著我做]”的哲學(xué)帶到了生活中。這種觀念與他的智慧以及與動物溝通和理解動物的能力相結(jié)合，將有助于為JABCECC的發(fā)展方向奠定基礎(chǔ)。Dave對動物，尤其是犬科動物的熱情，以及他的自信，在Amy的支持下，可以真正改變保護(hù)組織的面貌，這激發(fā)了他和Amy一起創(chuàng)建JAB犬科動物教育和保護(hù)中心。通過互動式教育、研究項目和我們大使犬參與的動物輔助治療項目，JABCECC可以真正改變它們的生活。

團隊：

Behavior Specialist/Trainer: Melissa Beeson Dixon

行為專家/培訓(xùn)師：Melissa Beeson Dixon

Melissa reached us to us with a love of working with mammals. She has been a trainer at a local Zoo for about 12 years and prior to that worked a local animal non-profit. She also has a business as a dog trainer in San Diego County. Melissa brings the perfect blend of understanding how to work with exotic animals while also applying training techniques used with domesticated dogs. Since our animals fit somewhere in between the two, it makes her uniquely qualified to help train the animals. Currently, we are working on training them in nose work/scent work. This would be similar training to what bomb/drug sniffing dogs undergo. We find this training to provide a lot of enrichment for the foxes and singers while also allowing us to explore their capabilities in utility work.

Melissa also lives on the property with her husband is help manage the center and all the animals.

　　Melissa帶著對哺乳動物研究的熱愛聯(lián)系了我們。她在當(dāng)?shù)匾患覄游飯@當(dāng)了12年的馴獸師，在此之前，她在當(dāng)?shù)匾患曳菭I利動物組織工作。她還在圣地亞哥從事訓(xùn)狗師的工作。Melissa讓我們懂得如何與外來動物相處，以及如何將馴養(yǎng)狗的方法應(yīng)用到這些動物身上。由于我們的動物介于兩者之間，這使得她有資格幫助訓(xùn)練動物。目前，我們正在對它們進(jìn)行嗅探訓(xùn)練，這類似于炸彈/毒品嗅探犬接受的訓(xùn)練。我們發(fā)現(xiàn)這次訓(xùn)練為狐貍和歌唱犬提供了很豐富的內(nèi)容，同時也讓我們開始探索他們在公用事業(yè)工作中可以發(fā)揮的作用。

　　Melissa和她的丈夫一起住在這里，幫助管理中心和所有的動物。

Board Member/CPA: Roxanne Greene

董事會成員/會計師:Roxanne Greene

Roxanne started out as a visitor to the center. She booked a private encounter for herself and her husband John and also gifted three encounters to her employees. Once she came to the center, she knew this was a place she wanted to be a part of because she saw how special these animals were. Roxanne started volunteering shortly after and it was long before she was added to the Board of Directors for the nonprofit and became the CPA. Her amazing ability with animals has made her a huge asset to the team. She is a woman of numerous talents, and you will routinely see her handling animals, giving presentations, planting and watering and jumping in when anything needs to get done. Her specialty is her bento boxes she makes for the encounters. These are filled with all sorts of yummy veggies, fruits, meats and cheeses for the foxes and yote girls. She surprises us with new things for the foxes to try weekly and we get to show our guests that while foxes are omnivores - many are also very picky eaters!! In her spare time, Roxanne has horses, a donkey, and three amazing dogs. She is a friend to every insect and reptile and can quickly save the rest of us from an unwelcomed tarantula.

　　Roxanne一開始是作為中心的訪客。她為自己和丈夫John預(yù)定了一次私人動物會面，并獎勵給她的員工三次會面。一來到這個中心，她就知道她想成為其中一員，因為她看到了這些動物是多么的特別。不久之后，Roxanne開始了志愿服務(wù)，很久之后，她才加入了這家非營利組織的董事會，并成為了會計。她與動物相處的驚人能力使她成為團隊的巨大財富。她是一個多才多藝的女人，你會經(jīng)?？吹剿疹檮游铮鲅葜v，種植和澆水，當(dāng)有任何事情要做時，她都會參與進(jìn)來。她的專長是為會面做便當(dāng)盒。里面裝滿了各種美味的蔬菜、水果、肉類和奶酪，是給狐貍和酸奶女孩[ref：yote girls]吃的。她每周都會給我們驚喜，讓狐貍嘗試新的東西，我們可以向我們的客人展示，雖然狐貍是雜食動物，但許多狐貍也非常挑剔！除此之外，Roxanne有幾匹馬，一頭驢和三只可愛的狗。她是所有昆蟲和爬行動物的朋友，能迅速從一只不受歡迎的狼蛛手中拯救我們。

Rescue Specialist: Victoria Klouda

救援專家：Victoria·Klouda

Victoria has been a fierce advocate for both foxes and Singers with over 6 NGSD rescues/placements to her credit!!!? With only 250-300 in the captive population, that is very impressive... The following Singers thank her for finding them Forever homes: Mingo, Livvy, Melbourne, Bonnie, Lyric, Max, and Titian!!! The JABCECC is lucky to have such an intelligent, clever, and compassionate advocate on our team!? If you have located a singer, fox, coyote, wolf-dog that is in need of rescue or placement, please contact us and Victoria will follow-up with you!!!?

　　Victoria一直是狐貍和歌唱犬的強烈擁護(hù)者，她有超過6次NGSD[新幾內(nèi)亞歌唱犬]救援/安置經(jīng)歷?。∪︷B(yǎng)種群中只有250-300只，這令人印象深刻……以下歌手感謝她為他們找到永遠(yuǎn)的家：Mingo, Livvy, Melbourne, Bonnie, Lyric, Max和Titian?。ABCECC很幸運，我們的團隊中有這樣一個聰明伶俐、富有同情心的倡導(dǎo)者！如果您找到了需要救援或安置的歌唱犬、狐貍、郊狼、狼狗，請與我們聯(lián)系，Victoria會跟進(jìn)??！
