Because of global urbanisation, interspecies interactions will intensify, becoming more frequent and complex. This development raises pressing questions about the welfare of animals in urban co…

However, there is no single, clear definition of “sociability” in dogs, which complicates consistent evaluation. This study aimed to explore how people in Flanders (Belgium) define canine sociabilit…

  • An exploratory analysis of the development and implementation of urban animal welfare policy in public spaces for four common species: Cats, dogs, pigeons, and foxes in the Brussels Capital Region

We conducted s…
