Dog aggression affects many, with nearly 5 million dog bites reported yearly in the United States alone. With the physical, emotional, and monetary costs of bites, it is of considerable interest to identify dogs that are likely to bite. One physiological measure that might serve as an index of aggression is heart rate variability (HRV), which refers to vagally mediated beat-to-beat change in heart rate. Low HRV has been associated with impaired emotional and behavioral regulation and stress in both humans and animals. To assess whether this measure corresponds with aggression in dogs, resting HRV was measured for dogs with and without bite histories. It was observed that dogs with bite histories had significantly lower HRV, and that owner reported aggression negatively correlated with variability. HRV measurements were collected from multiple training classes in order to determine if HRV would increase with behavioral improvement and whether physiological changes would differ between non-aggressive and aggressive dogs. HRV measurements were recorded three times over six weeks of training. Low HRV was observed across most subjects, indicating that training classes were stressful for most dogs. However, some differences emerged between the classes. The lowest variability was observed in a class composed of reactive dogs enrolled in training for the first time (compared to other reactive dogs that had undergone more training). Implications of these results are discussed, as well as potential applications for treating aggressive behavior.

Tato práce je zaměřena na rešerši biologického a elektronického nosu určeného k detekci výbušnin. V úvodní části popisuje obecně pyrotechnický průzkum a jsou zde popsány jednotlivé pyrotechnické vzdělání. Dále jsou zde popisovány možnosti výcviku a využití služebních psů zařazených do speciálních skupin pro vyhledávání výbušnin. Také je v práci uveden princip elektronického nosu včetně konkrétních přístrojů využívající tuto technologii a srovnání elektronického a biologického nosu v aplikaci na vyhledávání výbušnin., This thesis is focused on the search for biological and electronic nose designed to detect explosives. The introductory section describes the general pyrotechnic survey and describes the various pyrotechnic education. There are also described the possibilities of training and the use police dogs assigned to special groups to search explosives. Also, the work mentions the principle of electronic nose devices including concrete using this technology and comparison of biological and electronic nose in the search for explosives., Ústav bezpečnostního inženýrství

Through this project -“Projekt Pedadoggen”- I have tested dog training as a pedagogical resource at Daily activities. The study was made together with a group of persons with intellectual and neuropsychiatric disabilities, whose daily activities consist of running a day-care centre for dogs. Each participator of the project trained a dog towards a specific goal. This goal was individually formulated by each participator from his or her specific interest. The participators chose to set up a show, which was planned and performed by them selves. At the end of the project the participators were interviewed about their experiences of taking part on the project. Together with notes from the training, these interviews were the foundation of the hermeneutic influenced analysis. The theoretical outpost touches job satisfaction, work-integrated learning and the role of the pedagogue. The main conclusion is that dog training can create good conditions for personal development which favour both the work-integrated learning and the lifelong learning. The role of coaching creates opportunities for personal development, among other things by giving the participators opportunities to plan, to work towards a goal, to read and adjust another individual, to improvise, to learn about exercise psychology, etcetera. The training with dogs creates lots of opportunities for interaction, for examples between the participator and participator, between the participator and the dog, and between the participator and people outside the work place. A positive aspect which was stressed by the participators is their own job satisfaction as well as the job satisfaction of the dog. They also stressed the special friendship which can develop between human and dog.
