1 lut 2024 · Olfactory information is processed within the canine brain in different ways. Odors can affect dog behavior through various unconscious means—meaning that the dog has no idea why it has a strong urge to behave in a certain way, e.g., to find a mate.
21 sie 2021 · Here, we provide an overview of canine olfaction, discussing aspects connected with anatomy, physiology, behavioral aspects of sniffing, and factors influencing the olfactory abilities of the...
1 sty 2014 · It will cover the basic psychophysics of olfaction and the methodologies allowing us to explore this sensory modality, as well as the complex cognitive and motivational dimensions of scent. This chapter will open with an overview of the different disciplines involved in the study of canine olfaction.
Canine Olfaction: An Overview of the Anatomy, Physiology and Genetics. A dog's sensory experience of the world is guided largely by its nose. Unlike upright humans who have evolved to depend on high acuity vision, the macrosmatic dog relies heavily on a highly developed olfactory system to detect environmental information relevant for survival.
Dogs are well known for their reliance on olfaction, but the extent to which dog cognition and behavior research accounts for olfactory cues or incorporates olfactory controls is unknown. With this bibliographic study, we reviewed canine research published in the past 10 years (2008-2018) in 13 scientific journals and coded the 481 resulting ...
29 mar 2018 · Physical stressors including exercise, lack of conditioning, and high ambient temperature impact olfaction directly or indirectly in the canine. Dietary fat content, amount of food per meal, and timing of meals have been demonstrated to impact olfaction in mice and dogs.
