A novel task of canine olfaction for use in adult and senior pet dogs
SCIENTIFIC REPORTS, 13(1).
MeSH headings : Dogs; Animals; Smell; Food; Aging; Neuropsychological Tests
topics (OpenAlex): Human-Animal Interaction Studies; Olfactory and Sensory Function Studies; Animal Behavior and Welfare Studies
TL;DR:
A novel olfaction test using spontaneous search behavior in dogs to find a hidden food treat in a three-choice task with both light-phase and dark-phase conditions is described, making it feasible to compare between and within groups of pet dogs.

2023 journal article
Relationship between engagement with the impossible task, cognitive testing, and cognitive questionnaires in a population of aging dogs
FRONTIERS IN VETERINARY SCIENCE, 9.
author keywords: canine cognitive dysfunction syndrome; canine cognition; frustration; aging; dogs
topics (OpenAlex): Human-Animal Interaction Studies; Olfactory and Sensory Function Studies; Neuroendocrine regulation and behavior
TL;DR:
The high correlation with several cognitive measures and the ease of administration of this test makes it a useful tool in evaluating canine cognitive dysfunction syndrome, however it is unclear if increased frustration or other cognitive processes are contributing to the observed changes.

2020 journal article
A functional linear modeling approach to sleep-wake cycles in dogs
SCIENTIFIC REPORTS, 10(1).
MeSH headings : Algorithms; Animals; Behavior, Animal; Dogs; Models, Biological; Sleep / physiology; Wakefulness / physiology
topics (OpenAlex): Human-Animal Interaction Studies; Neuroendocrine regulation and behavior; Infant Health and Development
TL;DR:
It is demonstrated that FLM can be used to describe normal sleep–wake cycles of healthy adult dogs and the effects of physiologic traits on these patterns of activity, and makes it possible to characterize deviations from normal patterns, including those associated with chronic pain and cognitive dysfunction syndrome.
