Respond to "Temple Grandin: the Non-Whisperer"

My misconceptions about animals are dispelled by the feature on Temple Grandin written by John Allemang. My friend had a shepherd dog called Lucky, who only saw his owner most of time when my friend fed him with bones in the evening. Smart Lucky got out of the high-fenced yard and ran away many times. After Lucky was sent back, my friend always punished him.

I never wondered that my friend’s punishment only made things worse. Because we did not think about that “the animal world is all sensory –based,” which is different from us; we did not consider “which emotional system was driving that behavior?” We only assumed that what works on human beings also works on dogs.- 119 words
