Abstract

Abstract – There are many problems connected with aggressive dogs and often these problems are the
reason for the animal neglect. The aim of this study was to evaluate, with a specific test, the temperamental
traits of 2 groups of biting kennel and pet dogs. The test has been divided into 4 phases: approach and
interaction with a strange person, with a doll, with a false dog and the possession for food. Among kennel
biting dogs and pet ones differences have been found regarding their reactivity, agonistic and fear behaviors
and therefore their sociability towards different kinds of stimuli. A specific questionnaire submitted to pet
dog owners turned out to be a sensitive instrument of differentiation between groups, in particular with
reference to behaviors related to aggressiveness.
