Dyrenes Stemme - Animal Listening

Der er 3 ting jeg ser har en virkelig stor, ikke nødvendigvis positiv indvirkning på vores dyr. Det er de 3 store fejl, jeg ser, at vi kommer til at gøre - og som jeg tror, vi med stor glæde kan fralægge os. Jeg deler min egne erfaringer i denne episode. 
Nysgerrig? Så lyt med :D

Er vi mennesker egentlig nok til at skabe en meningsfuld tilværelse for vores dyr?
Hvordan kan vi på anden vis berige deres liv - og hvad skal det gøre godt for?
Dét dykker vi ned i denne episode, hvor jeg også giver dig masser ideer til hvordan du kan berige dit dyr. Lyt med! :)

Søge-systemet tænker vi som regel i omkring vores hunde - men hvad hvis jeg siger, at alle vores dyr har kæmpe glæde af at bruge det? Og at det spiller en større rolle end vi tit tiltænker det. Nå ja - og at det handler mere om forventningsglæde end belønning?
Det og meget mere fortæller jeg om i denne episode. Jeg håber, du vil lytte med.

Jeg fik virkelig en AHA-oplevelse, da det gik op for mig, hvor meget leg betyder for dyrene. Og hvor meget godt det kan gøre - for dem, for os og for vores relation. Leg kan blive en gamechanger i samværet med vores dyr. 
Derfor har jeg lyst til at dele disse indsigter med dig. Så lyt med! :D

Hestedyrlæge og tandlæge Mette Aarup gæster podcasten og vi tager en snak om, hvad ville hesten egentlig selv vælge, hvis den kunne. 
Vi sammenligner de erfaringer, jeg har gjort mig telepatisk, med de mønstre Mette som dyrlæge observerer og det vi ved, videnskaben hidtil har bevist. 
Jeg håber, du har lyst til at lytte med!
