Much of my early work was centered on interconnections between health, health care, and ecosystems. More recently, I’ve concentrated my attention on human-animal relationships, particularly the obligations that arise in caring for and living well with companion animals. My books and articles explore, among other things, hospice and palliative medicine for aging and ill animals, the promise and peril of animal welfare science, and how to give our companion animals the best possible care.
