Are children’s relationships with pet dogs uniquely related to children’s social and emotional competence and adjustment
Companion animals, including pet dogs, can be sources of support and potentially contribute to children’s competence and adjustment. The goal of this paper is to examine whether children’s pet dog relationships are related to their competence and adjustment after accounting for relationships with parents and friends and demographic factors. We distinguished three qualities of child-pet dog relationships – positive pet relationship qualities, fric…
Assessing children's relationships with pet dogs
Relationships with pet dogs are thought to provide substantial benefits for children, but the study of these relationships has been hindered by a lack of validated measures.

We introduce an analysis of bouts of dyadic play between humans and a heavily anthropomorphized animal, the domestic …
