Canine household aggression in the caseload of general veterinary practitioners in maritime Canada
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Canine household aggression, or aggression directed toward people living in the same household or familiar to the dog, is a significant cause of human injury and pet relinquishment, and yet there is very little scientific information available concerning the prevalence and characteristics of aggression in dogs in the general veterinary caseload. Because of the complexity of this behaviour, determining risk factors in a manner that will produce clinically useful results requires the use of large sample sizes, appropriate control groups, and adequate details concerning the dog, the aggression, and the home. A two-part study was undertaken to address this problem. The first phase was a cross-sectional survey of dog owners presenting their pets to one of 20 general veterinary practices in maritime Canada in 1996. Single page questionnaires were completed by 3226 owners. This generated the study population for the second phase of the study, a detailed telephone survey of 515 owners. For the detection of risk factors for aggression, dogs were compared on a case-control basis using both univariate and multivariate analytical techniques. (Abstract shortened by UMI.).

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
