Description

This presentation will discuss how understanding the influence of language, ideals, and social constructions of dogs and their behavior can help us approach dogs with a more open and nuanced perspective. It reminds us to consider the individuality of dogs and to avoid biased assumptions based on societal constructs. The role these influences have on the way our clients, and we, relate to our dogs is an important key to unlocking a deeper understanding of the dog-human relationship.
