Humans and Animals in Dialogue

Humans and animals in dialogue? Can we "talk" to a dog, a mouse, or a llama? Communication between humans and animals succeeds if we understand the animal's means of expression and know how to "engage" with it. Carola Otterstedt describes the body language and expressive behavior of domestic and farm animals and demonstrates with many examples and practical exercises how to establish contact. Furthermore, she introduces the five methods of animal-assisted intervention for the first time and discusses quality assurance. This practical guide thus provides the foundations for species-appropriate animal husbandry, diverse human-animal communication, and qualified animal-assisted work.
