Factors associated with dog behavior problems referred to a behavior clinic

This study aimed at identifying similarities and differences in characteristics underlying two major groups of behavior problems, and their treatment outcome. The study focused on 335 dogs that visited a Behavioral Clinic in northern Italy between 2013-2016. These cases were categorized into 2 broad groups based on the diagnosis: an aggressive group (behavioral pathologies involving aggression), and an anxious group (behavioral pathologies not primarily involving aggression).
