In this thought-provoking episode of Future Dog, host Jocelyn Kessler dives deep into the troubling incident involving a carriage horse named Lady in New York City. At 15 years old and new to the carriage ride system, Lady tragically collapses and dies during a sweltering day of work. Jocelyn reflects on the broader implications of this event, discussing how our treatment of animals often mirrors our treatment of each other in society.
Join Jocelyn as she explores the lack of empathy in urban environments, the normalization of distressing events, and the urgent need for a shift in our collective consciousness. She draws parallels between the treatment of animals and the mental state of city dwellers, urging listeners to cultivate empathy for themselves and the creatures around them.
This episode is a call to action for all of us to reconnect with our values and advocate for the well-being of animals in our communities. Tune in for an emotional yet enlightening discussion that challenges us to reflect on our responsibilities as caretakers of the planet.
