A 2-year-old, spayed female dog with the chief concern of repeated aggression to strange person at owner’s dock and house was presented to the Animal Behavior Clinic at the College of Veterinary Medicine at Cornell University. Based on the questionnaire and interview about dog, territorial aggression was diagnosed. Behavior modification protocols (protocol for deference; protocol for relaxation; ignore unwanted behaviors; reward relaxed behaviors; using Promise collar; avoid all situations that elicit aggression) were recommended. After 6 months from the first consulting, aggressive behaviors of the dog were alleviated.

In recent years welfare of animals is the biggest challenge because animals, especially dogs are widely recognized as pet as well as they are using as service animals. So, for the wellbeing of the dog it is necessary to perform objective assessment to track their behavior in everyday life. In this paper, we have proposed an automatic behavior assessment system for dogs based on a neck worn and tail worn accelerometer and gyroscope platform, and data analysis techniques that recognize typical dog activities. We evaluate the system based on the analysis of 8 behavior traits in 3 dogs, incorporating 2 breeds of various sizes. Our proposed framework able to reproduce the manual assessment that is based on the video recording which is treated as gold standard that exhibits the real-life use case of automated dog behavior analysis.

With the increasing population of companion dogs, the social cost derived from their behavioral problems is increasing. Therefore, it is important to understand the environment to provide experience for dogs via interactions with their owners to prevent and solve these problems. The parenting behavior of dog owners as an environmental factor has a profound impact on the behavior development of dogs, as does the parenting behavior on children. Therefore, this study aimed to develop a scale to assess the dog owner's parenting behavior. Exploratory factor analysis involving 300 participants resulted in a scale with four subscales, Positive Education, Involvement of Socialization, Intimacy, and Stable Responses, and 19 items. Confirmatory factor analysis was then performed to verify its reliability and validity. The result of parenting behaviors assessed by this scale was significantly different between a group with dogs with problematic behavior (n = 141) and those without (n = 159). Overall, a dog owner's parenting behavior involves affection and control aspects, but the role required specifically in the control aspect is distinguished from the parenting behavior with children. The findings in the present study will provide dog owners with effective education that will help prevent dogs from developing behavioral problems.

Jeju Dogs have high academic value due to their unique characteristics and conditions, but they have received little attention in the research field. This paper attempts to secure fundamental data to clarify the general characteristics of Jeju Dogs. For this purpose, an inspection of the basic body shape was performed to establish the shape and breed standards. Jeju Dogs were also exposed to 12 behavior tests to check their distinct character categories and an objective ethogram was built on each of the character categories to conduct a behavior analysis. The body shape of 34 clinically healthy Jeju Dogs aged 18 months or older was inspected using ten divided parts. For the behavior analysis, 10 Jeju Dogs were examined. A variety of behavioral variables were recorded based on 12 behavior tests that were categorized into four characters: sociality, aggressiveness, anxiety and submissiveness. The results of the body shape inspection indicated that most of the male dogs' parts had larger measured values than the female dogs' parts. The behavior analysis results revealed that the Jeju Dog displays excellent qualities such as submissiveness, reliability and fidelity and, hence, it is believed that this breed of dog is very appropriate for most duties and has the potential to be a household dog or working dog.

While the population of pet dogs and pet-related markets are increasing, there is no convenient and reliable tool for pet health monitoring for pet owners/caregivers. In this paper, we propose a mobile platform-based pre-diagnosis system that pet owners can use for pre-diagnosis and obtaining information on coping strategies based on their observations of the pet dog's abnormal behavior. The proposed system constructs symptom-disease association databases for 100 frequently observed diseases under veterinarian guidance. Then, we apply the possibilistic fuzzy C-means algorithm to form the "probable disease" set and the "doubtable disease" set from the database. In the experiment, we found that the proposed system found almost all diseases correctly, with an average of 4.5 input symptoms and outputs 1.5 probable and one doubtable disease on average. The utility of this system is to alert the owner's attention to the pet dog's abnormal behavior and obtain an appropriate coping strategy before consult a veterinarian.

A case of rectal prolapses in a one-year-old intact male mixed-breed dog, weighing 6.8 kg was presented with one-week history of protruded tubular pink mass through the anus along with mucosal necrosis. The prolapse was non-reducible, so rectal amputation and anal purse-string suture was performed. Prolapse recurred 9 days after the surgery, purse-string suture and conservative treatment were attempted with no-good results. Laparoscopic-assisted incisional colopexy technique was applied to treat the recurrent rectal prolapse, but failed 6 days after surgery. This was followed by non-incisional colopexy technique, which prevented recurrence during the 3 months of follow-up period. Despite the episode of recurrence, the laparoscopic-assisted colopexy technique treated rectal prolapse successfully. This is the first report in Korea, which describes laparoscopic-assisted colopexy in the dog.

To evaluate the effect of different housing systems on sow behavior, 80 gilts were randomly allocated at puberty to four treatments: i) sow stall in gestation followed by farrowing crate (SC), ii) group housing with individual feeding in gestation followed by farrowing crate (GC), iii) ESF (Electronic Sow Feeding) system in gestation followed by farrowing crate (EC), and iv) ESF system followed by group farrowing pen (EG). Behavioral observations were carried out on a total of 16 animals per treatment at the following stages: first day of allocation to housing treatment, day of service, 80 days after service, 109 days after service on entry to farrowing accommodation, 24 h before farrowing, day of farrowing, 14, 27 and 28 days after farrowing, at weaning. On each occasion, individual animals were observed for a 24 period with one minute time sampling. There were significant differences (p<0.001) between stages of the reproductive cycle for all the behavior patterns in all treatments. On the first day in experimental housing treatments, sows spent more time rooting and dog-sitting. Activity and investigatory behavior decreased as pregnancy progressed. An activity peak was apparent just before farrowing, followed by a high level of inactivity on the day of farrowing. Time spent active, eating and drinking increased as lactation progressed, and greatest activity and locomotion was seen immediately following weaning. There were significant differences between housing treatments (p<0.01) for standing, moving, eating, drinking, dog-sitting and lying. During pregnancy SC sows spent more time standing, rooting, drinking and dog sitting, while EC sows spent less time rooting and drinking and more time lying. During lactation, GC sows spent more time standing, moving and eating, less time dog sitting and lateral lying. Nursing frequency was reduced in GC sows (p<0.001). The maternal and piglet behaviors were influenced strongly by environment during lactation. However, it was also shown that previous housing history can influence the maternal behavior in the pre-farrowing stage and during early lactation.
