Description
Summary:To begin with, this article seeks to explore the bond which can unite two living beings. Indeed, this is the story about sharing, a common experience thanks to the meeting between two species: an animal, here a dog and a human being. From this bond emanates a significant story for the two protagonists involved: it deals with themes such as dog sledding, friendship between one dog and his kind and finally self-development and exploration. Through this testimony, my attempt is to reflect on a broader topic: humans sharing the planet. From a specific experience with another living being we tend to be more inclined to establish a strong bond with Gaia.
