Anthrozoology & Animal Training Series

This series is an updated and significantly expanded version of the Anthrozoology & Animal Training book, offering fresh insights and a renewed exploration of applied anthrozoology. It features on-the-ground research, contemporary debates, and practical applications, examining the evolving field of human-animal studies and its real-world implications for behavior, training, and ethics. It does not replace the original book, which retains exclusive material and can be regarded as a more compact edition of the series, but stands alongside it as a complementary work that broadens and deepens its scope.

Designed to provoke more profound reflection, it addresses key questions and current challenges in the field. The series features updated, practical models, essay-style chapters, a compilation of the author’s reflections, some of them censored on social media, and a diverse new section with recommended readings, free resources, and alternative perspectives, making it a comprehensive textbook collection.

Merging scientific rigor with critical analysis, the author bridges anthrozoology, ethology, philosophy of science, behavioral science, and over 20 years of practical experience in working with other species and their human families, laying a solid foundation while introducing new viewpoints on human-animal studies and interspecies communication. Readers are guided through a complex and dynamic field where challenging the status quo is not just beneficial but necessary.

What sets this series apart is its distinctive approach and thought-provoking discussions. It encourages critical thinking and consequential dialogue, serving as an indispensable resource for everyone: from dog owners to researchers and practitioners to anyone fascinated by the profound connections between humans and animals.

Anthrozoology & Animal Training Book

This thoroughly revised and enlarged edition is designed for everyone, from pet owners to professional trainers and researchers. It explores the dynamic domain of anthrozoology, transitioning from a scientific discipline to an influential ideological movement. This book meticulously dissects the multifaceted spectrum of human-animal studies, highlighting trends in animal training while demystifying animal behavior, welfare, ethics, research, emotions, and learning.

This edition incorporates most of the author’s work and research, including the “Teach Without Speech” project and practical approaches. It offers a scientific and empirical perspective that challenges popular views and marketing terms. It delves into taboo subjects often shunned by scientists and mainstream authors, providing a provocative take on popular terms and marketing slogans to encourage critical thinking and deeper understanding.

The Human-Animal: Book One

This book opens a series that confronts a truth we’ve worked hard to ignore: humanity is animality. We’ve turned our backs on our nature, constructing artificial worlds where we never quite belong. Social media has only deepened the illusion, giving us endless noise and distraction while the unease beneath still gnaws. We pile up possessions, comforts, and digital escapes, trying to quiet instincts that will not be silenced.

Animal training makes the contradiction plain. The author examines trainers as the animal species we are: convinced we can read another species’ mind, yet essentially blind to the instincts and drives that shape our own. It is this misplaced certainty, pretending to know everything about others while knowing so little about ourselves, that the book lays bare.

Drawn from years of teaching animal trainers, it offers a provocative ethological and anthrozoological look at humans as instinct-bound beings adrift in a world we’ve reshaped beyond recognition. Complete with a free resource list, references, and recommended reading, it challenges anyone who works with animals, from pet owners to professionals, to see both species in a new light.

Canine Studies: Book Two

This second book in the series confronts one of the most pressing questions of our time: when does science remain knowledge, and when does it drift into politics or religion? Canine studies offer fertile ground for this reflection, revealing how ideas are promoted, disputed, and at times distorted. What should be a field of learning often turns into an arena of ideology, noise, or convenience.

It explores the delicate balance between evidence and belief, between research as a search for understanding and study as an instrument of power. It questions the habit of treating academic authority as unquestionable, of turning provisional findings into untouchable truths, and of drafting laws driven more by pressure than by comprehension. Rather than offering easy answers, the book invites the reader to reflect, to recognize the limits of every study, and to critically analyze the ethical responsibility that must guide both science and practice.

With references for deeper reading and an extensive collection of free resources, it offers a critical yet constructive perspective for professionals, students, and all who live or work with other species, and how we might preserve their integrity in a world that demands both speed and certainty.
