Description

Explore the unique relationship between humans and animals in medical settings with this academic study from Routledge. Using an anthrozoological perspective, this book investigates how non-human animals participate in caregiving through specialized tasks. The research focuses on how trained assistance dogs use their sense of smell to detect scent changes in humans with Type 1 diabetes. By alerting hypo-unaware individuals to symptoms of chronic illness, these dogs help prevent dangerous hypoglycaemic episodes that could lead to unconsciousness, coma, or death. Based on ethnographic research and detailed interviews, this work provides a deep look at multispecies encounters. It examines the practical and social aspects of how canine scent detection serves as a life-saving tool for human companions. This book is an essential resource for those studying the intersection of animal behavior, medical sociology, and human-animal studies.
