| Sumario: | The section presents abstracts of studies about animal training. In one of the studies, Canine Training Methods: Their Use, Effectiveness and Interaction With Domestic Dog Behavior and Welfare, the authors Elly F. Hiby, Nicola J. Rooney and Jon W. S. Bradshaw conducted a questionnaire survey of the general pet dog owning community to investigate the training methods usually used, dog obedience, dog behavior and the owner-dog relationship. Meanwhile, authors Francien H. de Jonge, Kim van de Put, Roald Maes and Berry M. Spruijt, examined the preference of dogs to work for food rewards delivered with predictable or unpredictable delays. In the pilot study of Helen E. Zulch and Graham Harman, they studied the use of positive reinforcement training to facilitate husbandry practices and veterinary procedures at De Wildt Cheetah and Wildlife Centre.
