  • First Friend Case Study

    1396 Words  | 3 Pages

    First Friend: A History of Dogs and Humans, by Katherine Rogers, articulates the history of the relationship between dogs and humans. Wild Justice: The Moral Lives of Animals, by Marc Bekoff and Jessica Pierce, investigates if and how dogs exhibit morality. In both texts, anecdotes and observations are used to portray instances of dogs displaying cooperation, empathy, altruism, and, by extension, morality. Consequently, it stands to reason that dogs have a capacity for sociality, but how can the sociality of dogs be described? A dog’s capacity for sociality is the ability to form long term relationships with members of the same or other species. Dogs, in particular, dogs who hunt as well as dogs who play, are able to form long term relationships with humans and other dogs through trust, love,

    Throughout the world there are many different countries that contain diverse cultures, religions, and life styles. There is however certain aspects within these countries and cultures that acts as a common ground between one another. One dominant aspect is the existence of dogs within these cultures. Dogs are common throughout the world, either as a domestic pet, a protector on a farm, or an assistant for hunting; amongst others.

Despite the relative normality of having a dog in your life in one way or another, the reasons for dogs coming into existence is not common knowledge among most people. Throughout a great portion of mankind’s history dogs have been an essential part of life. The truth is dogs were actually created in part by man. It was evolution from wolves in the form of natural and artificial selection that brought dogs into existence (Harris 3). This is the most modern and widely excepted theory at this time, however this was not always the case considering the theory of evolution in of itself is relatively new in our society. After evolution as a theory was accepted there were several other variations on the theory such as, the evolution being from jackals opposed to wolves, and artificial selection being the only form of evolution to have taken place. According to Jarret A Lobell and Eric A Powell of Archaeology magazine “The idea that dogs were domesticated from jackals was long ago discarded in favor of the notion that dogs descend from the gray wolf (2)”. As for the theory that artificial selection ...

  • Dog Behavior: Should Dogs Be Blame for ther Agressive Behavior?

    1192 Words  | 3 Pages

    The inadequate knowledge of dog psychology in owners not only unveils their neglect of responsibility, but models their poor assessment in dog behavior pertaining to the individual breed; in addition, it confirms their shortage of precautionary measures to suppress aggression within the dog. In Dawn Kapp’s “It’s More About Owner Than Dog,” owners overlook their incapacity to meet the desires of the certain breed. When a person acquires an animal, its essential to acknowledge all “responsibility.” And by this, owners must study about the precise breed, it’s personality type and be able train and “socialize” them. Some owners however, discount the need to adjust early signs of dis...

    Pet were found in over 14.6 million in the UK homes due to single households and households comprised of couples without children tend to have pets as replacements for a partner or children (Euromonitor International, 2014a; Euromonitor International, 2014b). In fact, humans and animals have already been associated deeply for a long time, in which animals have been manifested in a variety forms such as food, servant and enemy. Nevertheless, a review of literature has identified the main reasons for this enduring association is companionship such as friends, family members, and owner’s self. Working Party Couticil for Science and Society (1988), cited by Hirschman (1994), emphasises that the animal is "perceived and treated as a subject, as a personality in its own right." Similarly, Feldmann (1979), cited by Hirschman (1994), also proposes that animals are “faithful, intimate, noncompetitive, and nonjudgmental” friends and often even better than human friends. In addition, animal companionship can satisfy humans with deeply needed emotional support and share lasting relationship (Bogdan and Taylor, 1989 cited by Sanders, 1990; Savishinsky, 1986 cited by Hirschman, 1994). Therefore, people devote time, energy and love to their pets and enjoy the happiness brought by their pets. This increasingly develops into a mutually evolving relationship and they can communicate in nonverbal ways based on mutual understanding and experience (Hirschman, 1994). On the other hand, animal companion can also be an extension of human’s self and the owner’s self-perception (Feldmann, 1979 cited by Hirschman, 1994; Belk, 1998; Sanders, 1990). Hirschman (1994) labels this from as “persona perception” that ...

  • respect for animals

    1200 Words  | 3 Pages

    Humans interact better with companion animals because they provide emotional and social support. Animals like dogs and cats provide physical and emotional benefits to their owners and are completely faithful to them. People who desire and lack love and affection from their family members and friends can be satisfied from their pets that they share close bond with. Hal Herzog gives an example in "Animals Like Us" about how women respect and love their pets, "A report by the American Animal Hospital Association found that 40 percent of the women they surveyed said that they got more affection from their dogs than from their husbands or children" (246). Pets, such as dogs, offer more company and support to humans than humans do to each other. Pets have the ability to stimulate their caregivers by giving them company and coping up with emotional issues. People are too busy taking care of themselves and forget that there are family members that need them, but companion animals fulfill all the needs and wants of people t...
