Our dog behavior questionnaire site is now live! We’ve had an incredible response in the first week – thank you to everyone who has joined up.
Do you have a dog? Join the project at www.darwinsdogs.org. There is no cost for participation – and we’ll let you know about anything we find out.
We’re studying how the dog genome has changed as dogs evolved from wolves to beloved companions and work partners. If we can understand how genetic changes can lead to behavior differences — even for normal behaviors — we will have new insight into psychiatric and neurological diseases in dogs and people.
