    1 Analysis of the intraspecific visual communication in the domestic dog (Canis familiaris): the case 2 of calming signals. 3 4 Chiara Mariti1*, Caterina Falaschi1, Marcella Zilocchi1, Jaume Fatjò2, Claudio Sighieri1, Asahi Ogi1, 5 Angelo Gazzano1 6 1 Department of Veterinary Sciences, University of Pisa, Italy 7 2 Department of Psychiatry and Legal Medicine, Autonomous University of Barcelona, Spain 8 *[email protected] 9 10 Doi: 10.1016/j.jveb.2016.12.009 11 12 Abstract 13 The study of intraspecific visual communication in the domestic dog started with the observation of its 14 ancestor. However, studying domestic dogs is crucial to have a better knowledge and understanding of 15 this species. The aim of this study was to scientifically assess if the behaviors called calming signals 16 have a communicative and a calming function. 17 Twenty-four dogs, 12 females and 12 females, acted as senders; they were observed for the emission of 18 the behaviors considered by Rugaas (2006) calming signals (CS). The behavior of each sender dog was 19 analyzed during four 5-minute off-leash encounters, in which the dog met a recipient, respectively: an 20 unfamiliar dog of the same sex; an unfamiliar dog of the other sex; a familiar dog of the same sex; and 21 a familiar dog of the other sex. The display and trend of aggression in recipient dogs was also analyzed. 22 In total, 2130 CS were observed. Some behaviors were much more displayed than others, above all 23 head turning, licking nose, freezing and turning away. 1 24 It was statistically more likely that the CS were emitted while the two dogs were interacting rather than 25 when there was no interaction (2 = 836.155; p < 0.001), allowing to hypothesize that CS have a 26 communicative role.

HUMAN CALMING OF DOG AROUSAL A thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements fo r the degree of Master of Arts in Psychology at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand Sasha Jane McComb 2000 11 ABSTRACT Humans, by their behaviour, may wittingly or unwittingly increase arousal that triggers attacks in dogs. Equally their behaviour may have a calming effect. Based on evidence in scientific literature, and from recommendations in other writings, the experimenter approached fo ur dogs in one of three ways. (1) Head averted while crouching (Head Turn); (2) eye blinking while crouching (Eye Blink); and (3) direct stare while standing (Direct Stare). The effects of these approaches on arousal levels in the dog� were measured. Dog arousal (an indicator of how likely the dog is to aggr ss) as assessed from observations of six components of dog behaviour, using scales that measured submission and fear, through relaxation and calmness, to dominance. The presence of either submission or dominance can increase the likelihood of attack. The effect of the three approaches was tested using a small-N alternating treatments design, which involved an initial baseline phase, an alternating treatments phase, a preferred treatment phase, and reversal to baseline. A further three phases were run to assess the effect of approaches on the dogs behaviour by different experimenters.
  • Canine Communication

    Canine Communication

    Canine Communication Introduction Dogs live in a world of sensory input: visual, olfactory, auditory perceptions. They easily perceive tiny details - a quick signal, a slight change in another’s behavior, the expression in our eyes. Animals are so perceptive to signals (body language) that a horse can be trained to follow the contraction in our pupils and a dog can be trained to answer your whispering voice. There’s no need to shout commands or to make the tone of our voice deep and angry - what Karen Pryor refers to as swatting flies with a shovel. Dogs have about 30 calming signals, perhaps even more. Just some of these signals are used by most dogs, while other dogs have an incredibly rich ´vocabulary´. The signals are international and universal. All dogs all over the world have the same language. A dog from Japan would be understood by an elkhound that lives in an isolated valley in Norway. They will have no communication problems! The problem Dogs use this communication system towards humans, simply because it’s the language they know and think everyone understands. By failing to see your dog using calming signals on you, and perhaps inadvertently punishing the dog for using them, you risk causing serious harm to your dog. Some may simply give up using the calming signals, including with other dogs. Others may get so desperate and frustrated that they get aggressive, nervous or stressed out as a result. Puppies and young dogs may actually go into a state of shock. Basic knowledge An owner calls her dog.
