Download or read book The Most Painful Choice written by Beth Miller and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2023-03-31 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Champ, a German Shepherd, was adopted from a local breed rescue, his family hoped and expected to spend many fun-filled years with him. However, Champ suffered physically and mentally from neglect and trauma from his first years of life. Despite numerous treatments, Champ was never able to overcome that trauma to become a "normal" dog, and his family made the painful decision to give him peace through behavior euthanasia. This work serves not only as an account of Champ's life and his family's attempts to help him, but also as a resource on behavior euthanasia, which is a compassionate choice for unmanageable aggression, reactivity, bites or severe anxiety. Investigating the potential causes of these issues, chapters examine scientific research on dog behavior and emotions.

Book excerpt: For many of us, the only way we meet "dangerous" dogs is through news reports about vicious attacks, and films and TV shows that feature out-of-control versions of man's best friend.

But, when media tells the dangerous dog's story, it is often with a deep connection to the person on the other end of the leash.

Download or read book Who s a Good Dog written by Jessica Pierce and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2023-09-05 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A guide to cultivating a shared life of joy and respect with our dogs. Who’s a Good Dog? is an invitation to nurture more thoughtful and balanced relationships with our canine companions. By deepening our curiosity about what our dogs are experiencing, and by working together with them in a spirit of collaboration, we can become more effective and compassionate caregivers. With sympathy for the challenges met by both dogs and their humans, bioethicist Jessica Pierce explores common practices of caring for dogs, including how we provide exercise, what we feed, how and why we socialize and train, and how we employ tools such as collars and leashes. She helps us both to identify potential sources of fear and anxiety in our dogs’ lives and to expand practices that provide physical and emotional nourishment. Who’s a Good Dog? also encourages us to think more critically about what we expect of our dogs and how these expectations can set everyone up for success or failure. Pierce offers resources to help us cultivate attentiveness and kindness, inspiring us to practice the art of noticing, of astonishment, of looking with fresh eyes at these beings we think we know so well. And more than this, she makes her findings relatable by examining facets of her relationship with Bella, the dog in her life. As Bella shows throughout, all dogs are good dogs, and we, as humans and dog guardians, could be doing a little bit better to get along with them and give them what they need.
Download or read book The Welfare of Working Animals written by Katarina Nenadović and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2024-01-24 with total page 107 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Currently, in most of the developing world, working animals are still used for various tasks, mostly for hauling and transport. Equids, camelids, bovids and even elephants work daily from forests to cities to accompany humans in the hardest of tasks. These animals are often prematurely introduced to the working environment, their stockman being poorly educated and their equipment in most cases is deficient and unfitting. Working dogs are prevalent around the world and fulfil many roles, adding social, cultural, and economic value to human lifestyles. Dogs work in herding, guarding, hunting, human assistance, and animal-assisted therapy. Even though considerable advances have been made regarding their welfare requirements, their wellbeing remains an area of public concern due to overloading and inadequate loading techniques, inadequate equipment, inhumane handling, working while in poor health or too young, poor nutrition and inappropriate management. Initiating factors which influence welfare of working animals include traditional or cultural beliefs and economic constraints. Furthermore, inadequate knowledge and inappropriate attitudes and management practices can also contribute to welfare issues.
