Where does pet parenting come from? This craze for transforming pets into family members, talking to them like babies, celebrating their birthdays, dressing them up for winter. Is it really an inter-species love story? Or a misunderstanding? Are Maltese bichons living comforters, genetically engineered products to satisfy our emotional needs? Are chihuahuas happy to go down to the dog park in their down jackets? Faced with her youngest daughter who dreams of adopting a poodle, Delphine Saltel investigates in a pet store and the consultations of behavioral veterinarian Emmanuelle Titeux. She meets the anthropologist Charles Stépanoff, who places the strange propensity of the human species to mother individuals of another species in the long term. He sheds light on the complexity of the relationships that humans have developed over the millennia with wolves and then dogs. A story that mixes predation and empathy, and that forces us to look a little further than the end of our leashes. With: Charles Stépanoff, director of studies at the School for Advanced Studies in the Social Sciences, co-founder of the École paysanne de Lignerolles, author of Attachements and L'animal et la mort, Éditions La Découverte, 2024. Emmanuelle Titeux, veterinarian, specialist in behavioral medicine.
