The busy one is just bad about people. Lesson today, scientists have found evidence that dogs, too, can add an addict to certain things – and especially, their favorite toy.
Investigators see a lot of dogs as they contact their very stable toys. About a third of the dogs showed addiction – such as behaviors, like a disturbance especially when the toy is stored in them, they found.
This findings may not be ignorant of dog owners. But researchers say that their work is the first to write about this practice.
“This first scientific study of the addiction in the dogs,” the Code of Conduct near the University of Vetelna’s research center, told Gizmodo.
Ball junkies
Rierer notes that pet creators and coaches use a (instead nose, appears) the nickname of the dogs that seem to be able to find their toys: “Football junkies.”
But there has never been clear that this kind of conduct actually shows how counseling shows people. “After that, just be motivated, or very up or the toy very much mean that addiction,” Rierer notes.
Scientists have known that you may have attracted addicted ways to animals such as mice, which allowed us to better read potential treatment of drugs or other addicts. But there is still an open question that the animal is without the people can build addiction, the authors said.
To explore their hypothesis, researchers try to apply the goals we use to find an addict to people in dogs.
The study involved 105 dogs, with the most common types of cash, border collisions, and return Labrador. All dogs are described as a toy – motivated by their owners. Experimenters, researchers use the owners owners that their dogs can most, and also include a dog’s favorite dog at home if owners will bring them.
Too much and by ruling
In all the tests, researchers find that 33 dogs show corrections such as flower like toys. These behavior includes dogs to stay laser focused on the source if they are kept in the room but placed in a certain place that cannot be accessible; Dogs who refuse to play with their owner and in other ways; And even dogs open free treatment.
“This can indicate that a high-incoming motion to cultivating conflicts and other important activities – dogs are determined to give up some functions or rewards when they cannot find it,” explains Rierer. “It shows that the toys are higher than these dogs and that they desire to access those toys.”
Perhaps the illustrating example of addictive behavior such as moral behavior when toys are completely removed, adding. Some dogs are simply unable to lower five minutes after the toys were gone, their prices of their heart. That kind of long-lasting frustration and high frustration that RIERMER said that their toy motives can be considered important ways to ‘find one’s addict.
The party’s acquisition was published on Thursday in scientific reports. The video of one dog for these trials can be seen below and YouTube.
Left to read
The investigators say that they have to be taken with caution. It is difficult to measure accuracy and distinguish an addict to humans, let him leave non-organs. And there is much to learn about the kind that can be addicted to dogs.
One important question that is changing is what this behavior can come from. Investigators find some evidence that the excessive toy seeds often appear in the Pupppies. They also conducted a lesson to test whether certain types, especially certain types of active dogs, determined by a toy addict. Because the study focuses on the unknown dogs, however, it is not clear how they are self-sacrificing behavior in dogs.
All that is said, Irier does not want owners to worry about their dogs if they just like to play their toys at healthy prices.
“Many dogs have referred to as ‘soccer junkies’ are very motivated, but they are no problems with food,” he said. “I think the Toy Play Play is a great reward for many dogs, but the extreme ‘dogs, steps to be taken to reduce their repairs.”
Rierer is now working for an ADHD testing allowance in the dogs, since it seems that there are many similarities and behavior in their research. Other courses also raise dogs can be a good model of better understanding ADHD to people.
