Produktbeschreibung
In her new book "What Makes a Good Dog," renowned bioethicist Jessica Pierce invites us to cultivate more thoughtful and balanced relationships with our canine companions. By deepening our curiosity about what our dogs experience and working with them in a spirit of collaboration, we can become more effective and compassionate caregivers. Pierce discusses the challenges faced by both dogs and humans, exploring common practices in their care. He examines how we provide them with exercise, what we feed them, how and why we socialize and train them, and how we use tools such as harnesses and leashes. In doing so, she helps us to identify potential sources of fear and anxiety in our dogs' lives and to expand practices that nurture them both physically and emotionally. The author promotes a more critical way of thinking about what we expect of our dogs and how these expectations can influence their success or failure. Pierce offers resources for cultivating mindfulness and kindness, inviting us to practice the art of observing, being amazed, and looking with fresh eyes at these beings we think we know so well. The work is articulated on both a scientific and personal level, starting with Pierce's relationship with Bella, the dog in his life. Through this connection, the author brings her findings and discoveries to all readers. As Bella demonstrates throughout, each dog is unique and valuable, and as humans and guardians, we have much to improve and learn in order to give them a full and happy life.

Autorenporträt
Jessica Pierce es una bioeticista cuya investigación y escritos se centran en las cuestiones éticas que surgen en las ciencias biológicas y biomédicas. Gran parte de sus primeros trabajos se enfocaron en las interconexiones entre la salud, la atención médica y los ecosistemas. Recientemente, ha dirigido su atención hacia las relaciones entre humanos y animales, especialmente en las obligaciones que surgen al cuidar y convivir con animales de compañía. Sus libros y artículos exploran temas como la medicina paliativa para animales viejos y enfermos, la promesa y el peligro de la ciencia del bienestar animal, y cómo proporcionar a nuestros animales de compañía los mejores cuidados posibles. En 2010 fue coautora, junto con el ecologista y etólogo Marc Bekoff, del libro Wild Justice, al que siguieron dos libros en solitario: The Last Walk en 2012 y Run, Spot, Run en 2016.
