It contains a collection of eleven papers (one review and ten research articles) on the behavior of dogs and cats in animal shelters, which can be very challenging environments. The papers focus on stress and behaviors associated with stress; the effectiveness of shelter enrichment programs in reducing stress; the usefulness of shelter behavioral evaluations in predicting behavior and assessing adoptability; and interactions between humans and companion animals. The aim of this book is to provide information that will inform shelter programs and policies, and thereby improve the welfare of shelter animals. 606 $aAnimals and society$2bicssc 606 $aBiology, life sciences$2bicssc 606 $aResearch and information: general$2bicssc 610 $aactivity 610 $aadoption 610 $aanimal shelter 610 $aanimal shelters 610 $aanimal welfare 610 $aarousal 610 $aattachment behavior 610 $aattachment style 610 $abehavior 610 $abehavioral evaluation 610 $abehaviour 610 $abehaviour assessment 610 $abehaviour problems 610 $abehavioural assays 610 $abehavioural syndromes 610 $abody gesture 610 $acanine behavioural assessment 610 $acanines 610 $acompanion animal 610 $acortisol 610 $adefecation 610 $adisinhibited attachment 610 $adog 610 $adog appeasing pheromone (DAP) 610 $adog behaviour 610 $adog behaviour assessment 610 $adog behaviour prediction 610 $adog behaviour problems 610 $adog post-adoption behaviour 610 $adogs 610 $aearly-life stress 610 $aenrichment 610 $aFelis silvestris catus 610 $afood aggression 610 $afood guarding 610 $afoster dog 610 $aglucocorticoid 610 $aground scratching 610 $aheart rate variability 610 $ahome behaviour 610 $ahuman-animal interaction 610 $ahuman-animal interactions 610 $ahuman-cat relation 610 $ahuman-dog interaction 610 $ahypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal 610 $aindividual differences 610 $alavender 610 $aleash tension 610 $amusic 610 $aon-leash walk 610 $aowner surrender 610 $apredict 610 $aresource guarding 610 $areturn rate 610 $ascent marking 610 $ashelter 610 $ashelter cats 610 $ashelter dog 610 $ashelters 610 $asocial buffering 610 $astress 610 $aurinary posture 610 $aurination 610 $averbal cue 610 $awelfare 615 7$aAnimals and society 615 7$aBiology, life sciences 615 7$aResearch and information: general 700 $aMcGuire$b Betty$4edt$0752710 702 $aMcGuire$b Betty$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910557448503321 996 $aBehavior of Shelter Animals$93035797 997 $aUNINA
