Ey @chapaau.bsky.social I just found a pic from the ISAZ 2023 conference at Edinbugh/Scotland. I am the guy next to Tia and Ida.
I hope you are doing well. Kind regards from Spain! 😀

(I think @jwapplebaum.bsky.social is in the left side, I do not know the id at bluesky of Dr. Irvine or the others)

... but, when you are against buying companions and/or selective brreeding, then adopting a mongrel (mixed breed) will be the best options.

In both cases, the election reflexes our own values. We explore this in our book.

In the last paper we published, we found four profiles (categories) of companions' statuses:
1. Human-like (such as offsprings)
2. Member of multispecies families
3. Pet
4. Objectivization (such as an object of prestige)

As far as we know, the latest receives the least attention in literature.

Para leer un poco sobre el tema: Taylor y Signal (2009) y su instrumento sobre derechos de animales de compañía (pet), plagas (pest) y utilidad (profit; PPP).

O este libro ⬇️📚

... pero cuando tienes objeciones ante la venta de animales de compañía o la cría selectiva, parece previsible evitar los individuos que tengan pedigree.

Nos alegra leer un estudio sobre esta temática.

La relación entre identidad y elección de animales se explora en nuestro libro, por cierto 🤓

En el último artículo que publicamos hablamos de cuatro grandes perfiles de estatus para los animales de compañía:
1. Estatus de humano (p.ej. hijos)
2. Miembro de familia multiespecie
3. Mascota
4. Elemento de prestigio

Es de este último del que menos se publica, generalmente

There we go! And that makes 10 years in the row 🐕🐎🐇🐈‍⬛
We'll speak on how to design and implement animal-assisted interventions. How to include empirically grounded knowledge and cultural background? Eager to meet the students!
