Kutsumi, Ai, et al. "Importance of puppy training for future behavior of the dog." Journal of veterinary medical science 75.2 (2013): 141-149.

Ai Kutsumi is a Japanese researcher who studies animal ethology, and also is the main author of "Importance of puppy training for future behavior of the dog." published by the Journal of veterinary medical science. The researchers aimed to determine if puppy socialization and command training classes, which were confined to puppies around 4 months of age, avoided behavior issues in dogs in this study. They used a behavior test and the Canine Behavior Assessment and Research Questionnaire to assess the behaviors of 142 dogs with four different types of training experience. Dogs in the puppy class group attended the class for one hour each week for six weeks, dogs in the puppy party group attended a one-hour "puppy party," dogs in the adult class group attended basic obedience lessons for adolescent/adult dogs for one hour each week for six weeks, and dogs in the no class group received no formal training. The behavior test assessed each dog's responsiveness to orders, recall from the owner, separation, novel stimuli, and strangers. Participation in puppy and adult lessons increased dogs' obedience behavior regardless of age, according to test results. As a result, puppy class may aid in the prevention of canine behavioral issues such as disobedience or fear of strangers. I will explain why dogs have jealous behaviors In my research paper, and this article will support some of my claim.

Amalia P. M. Bastos is a researcher profession in animal psychology and animal science who also writes "Dogs Mentally Represent Jealousy-Inducing Social Interactions." In this article, jealousy may have developed to safeguard valued social relationships from intruders, some academics believe it is tied to self-awareness and theory of mind, leading to suggestions that it is unique to humans. The researchers discovered three signs of envious behavior in dogs. First, jealousy formed only when the dog's owner engaged with a perceived social rival. Second, it emerged as a result of that engagement rather than the simple presence of a conspecific. Third, it appeared even when the dog's owner and a social rival interacted out of sight. These findings back up assertions that dogs exhibit jealous behavior and give the first evidence that canines may cognitively depict jealousy-inducing social events. This article helps me to explain the cause of dogs’ jealousy behaviors in my research paper.

Abdai, Judit, et al. "Investigating jealous behaviour in dogs." Scientific reports 8.1 (2018): 1-8.


Judit Abdai is a researcher in MTA-ELTE Comparative Ethology Research Group who writes the article "Investigating jealous behaviour in dogs." This article is about jealousy serves to support the maintenance of an essential social connection that is under threat from a third party, a competing individual. Although jealousy serves an essential purpose in social creatures, it has been studied nearly entirely in humans. We hypothesized that jealous behavior in dogs, like in children, may be elicited by functional similarities between dog-owner and mother-infant bonds. In our study, owners concentrated completely on the test partner while ignoring their dog. We used known and unfamiliar canines for social testing, and familiar and unfamiliar items for non-social testing. According to the findings, jealous behavior arises in dogs and is functionally identical to that found in children in similar settings. This article helps me support that dogs’ jealousy behavior might be self-awarness.

Gamble, L., et al. "The problem of stray dogs." Revue scientifique et technique (International Office of Epizootics) 37.2 (2018): 543-550.

 

Luke Gamble is a member from the Heathrow Veterinary Services which is professional at animals’ vaccine. He and his coworkers works on this research which name "The problem of stray dogs." Stray dogs problem is common in every country and one of the most effective way to solve it is the vaccination. A rabies vaccination program cannot be successful without effective management of stray dogs. It is imperative to vaccinate this portion of the stray dog population at high coverage in rabies-endemic countries, since stray dogs make up a substantial portion of the free-roaming and total dog populations. Although rabies vaccinations can be administered to stray dogs, there are some challenges involved. Specifically, this paper emphasizes the importance of including stray dogs in vaccination programmes along with owned dogs, and that stray dogs can be protected from rabies by overcoming several challenges.

Domenico Otranto is a Italian medicine veterian professor in the University of Bari. He and his coworkers writes this article "Zoonotic parasites of sheltered and stray dogs in the era of the global economic and political crisis." With the current global economic and political crisis in mind, they explore the impact of shelter dogs as well as stray dogs as reservoirs of zoonotic parasites in this article. It is possible that zoonotic parasites present a major threat to public health when they infect dogs in shelters and stray dogs, including protozoa, helminths, and arthropods. Veterinarians and public health authorities do not prioritize addressing health problems in these animals. Zoonotic parasites continue to be transmitted to dogs through zoonotic reservoirs.

Public health and the environment are negatively impacted by stray dogs. As of the time of writing, no studies have been conducted on the distribution of stray dogs in the city of So Paulo, which has approximately 2.5 million owned dogs. An evaluation of local sociodemographic and environmental factors was conducted to determine the association between stray dogs and perceptions of stray dogs in urban fragments in So Paulo. In addition, photographic mark-recapture methods were used to estimate the presence of stray dogs. Seeing stray dogs was related to proximity between humans and dogs and environmental factors like waste handling.

Lang, Davi. "A Mandatory Spay/Neuter Ordinance in San Francisco: The Solution to San Francisco’s Other Homeless Problem." (2013).

 

As a method of curbing dog overpopulation, at least 33 local governments across the country require all dogs to be spayed or neutered. A similar mandatory neuter law should be adopted in San Francisco, which would require that all dogs over 6 months be spayed or neutered, with certain exceptions. There will be less strain on Animal Care & Control, the City will save money, and San Francisco's dog population will suffer less pain and suffering. There are many health, behavioral, and societal benefits associated with spaying and neutering besides reducing the number of unwanted dogs.

An overview of fertility inhibitors available for dogs was the purpose of this review. A hypertonic sodium chloride-NaCl solution has been used as a chemical sterilization method so far. As a result of the review, we are faced with the challenges of evaluating the feasibility, effectiveness, sustainability, and effect of mass non-surgical sterilization campaigns on dog population size, impact, and integrating nonsurgical fertility control with vaccinations against infectious diseases and public education programs in the future.









 

Kartal, Tamara, and Andrew N. Rowan. "Stray dog population management." Field manual for small animal medicine (2018): 15-28.

There appears to be a relationship between human–canine relationships that influences dog population densities and density of dogs over time rather than a dog's ability to reproduce. As a result of planned long-term projects focusing on sterilization and observed change in human behavior, humane dog population approaches have improved street dog welfare and human welfare, and reduced street dog populations and improved dog ownership practices as well. A global dog population management program has the potential to change the lives of millions of dogs all over the world, as this chapter examines what we are learning about global dog populations.
