The earliest known relationship between dogs and humans is attested by the 1914 discovery of the Bonn–Oberkassel dog , who was buried alongside two humans in ...
Behavioral epigenetics is the field of study examining the role of epigenetics in shaping animal and human behavior. [1] It seeks to explain how nurture shapes nature, [2] where nature refers to biological heredity [3] and nurture refers to virtually everything that occurs during the life-span (e.g., social-experience, diet and nutrition, and exposure to toxins).

The study used dogs who weren't paired with their humans because they wanted to get a better baseline for what dogs are able or not able to do, since they'll read non-verbal cues from their human ...
These changes can lead to transgenerational stress inheritance. [1] Epigenetic modifications play a role in the development and heritability of these disorders and related symptoms. For example, regulation of the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis by glucocorticoids plays a major role in stress response and is known to be epigenetically regulated.
