From Litigation to Collaboration: Transforming Animal Law Through Empathy
Description
In this episode of Why Do Pets Matter, I talk with industrial organizational psychologist Taeler Hammond about the growing connection between animal law, veterinary conflict, and the human-animal bond.
We explore why treating pets as property in court often falls short, and how empathy and communication can lead to better outcomes for everyone involved. Taeler shares personal stories that show how small moments can turn into big conflicts—or real solutions—depending on how we respond.
We also talk about de-escalation techniques, the role of social media in disputes, and why including clients in the problem-solving process builds trust.
If you work with animals or care about the people who do, this conversation is full of helpful tools and perspective.
