Genome-wide association study (GWAS) using dog breed standard values as phenotypic
measurements is an efficient way to identify genes associated with morphological and …

Behavioral traits like aggression, anxiety, and trainability differ significantly across dog
breeds and are highly heritable. However, the neural bases of these differences are …

Research on working dogs is growing rapidly due to increasing global demand. Here we
report genome scanning of the risk of puppies being eliminated for behavioral reasons prior …

Background Very little is known about the etiology of personality and psychiatric disorders.
Because the core neurobiology of many such traits is evolutionarily conserved, dogs present …

Different factors seemingly account for the emergence of present-day languages in our
species. Human self-domestication has been recently invoked as one important force …

There is growing interest in canine behavioral research specifically for working dogs. Here
we take advantage of a dataset of a Transportation Safety Administration olfactory detection …

Dogs exhibit remarkable phenotypic diversity, particularly in behavioral traits, making them
an excellent model for studying the genetic basis of complex behaviors. Behavioral traits …

Early life deprivation and stress can contribute to life‐long, problematic consequences,
including epigenetic variations related to behavior and health. Domestic dogs share human …

Simple Summary It is widely accepted that long term mental stress increases the risk of
cancer. However, it has been impossible to show this conclusively in any species due to the …
