Some great discussions this coming week in the Functional Dog Collaborative group! On Monday, there will be discussion about supporting breeders who are open about issues, and on Friday, discussion about average litter sizes and pricing! Join us here: bit.ly/2UBPTrC
This coming week in the Functional Dog Collaborate group, we have the following discussions: how distance impacts decisions for breeding and purchasing, and time frames between adding dogs to your household! Join us here: bit.ly/2UBPTrC
Owners, what do you wish your dog had known about walking before coming home? Or YOU had known? Has a certain type of walk (a quiet loop of the neighborhood, off lead at the park, or maybe a marathon!) influenced your choice of canine companion? #Dogs #NationalWalkYourDogWeek
Breeders, how does walking fit in to your program...or does it? Do you have different walks, maybe just around the yard, with pregnant dogs or new puppies? What do you want new puppy owners to know about walking? #Dogs #NationalWalkYourDogWeek #DogBreeding
IT'S WALKIES TIME! What is your dog's favorite type of walk? Casual stroll, lightning run, big hike? Sights, smells, and sounds, oh my? #NationalWalkYourDogWeek #Dogs #DogWalking
This week in the Functional Dog Collaborative group, we have the following discussions lined up: Breeders offering kickbacks Sourcing purebred dogs for doodle projects Breed evaluations offered by clubs We want to hear from YOU! Join us here: bit.ly/2UBPTrC
This coming week in the Functional Dog Collaborative Facebook group, we will discuss breeding decisions related to angulation, doodle diversity, and artificial insemination! Everyone is welcome. Join us here: bit.ly/2UBPTrC
Excited to be hosting @HannahPalsa and @2ndfstestderby at the Army and Navy club tonight for a virtual forum on Dogs for Defense and naval mascots, or “goats on boats” as Gordon so wonderfully described it.
This week in the FDC group, we have the following topics: breeds changing from their historic counterparts, doodle health and longevity, and health guarantees! Join us here: bit.ly/2UBPTrC

We're hiring! We're currently looking for a postdoc to oversee a project focusing on assessing welfare of breeding dogs in high volume kennels. Please refer to the following link if interested: vet.purdue.edu/discovery/cron…
@DrEmilyBray @PartridgeCG Very cool!
Some very interesting research into the heritability of temperament and behavior. We're looking forward to further studies on the subject, as well as exploring the limits of heritability in these cases. #CanineGenetics #DogScience
268 dog whole-genome sequences from 130 breeds were used to investigate candidate genes underlying dog herding, predation, temperament, and trainability. The results of herding behavior revealed 44 significantly associated sites within five chromosomes. frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…
New FDP paper with free access: Dogs were observed during separation from the owner. 2 years later 41% of dogs were stable, 38% improved, 16% worsened in separation behaviour. Older dogs with sep. issues whined more and made less escape attempts. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
The FDC is thrilled to announce our partnership with @embarkvet! Embark for Breeders has generously agreed to donate for an FDC giveaway supporting breeders who are Black, Indigenous, or People of Color (BIPOC). Read more on our website: functionalbreeding.org/embark/
RT @FamDogProject: Dogs produce distinct facial expressions in positive or negative situations: Ear adductor more frequent in positive condition & Blink, Ears flattener, Lips part, Jaw drop, & Nose lick more frequent in negative condition. link.springer.com/article/10.100…
