Head tilting behaviour in domestic dogs (Canis familiaris) and their ancestors the grey wolves (Canis lupus).

Ciao and welcome to my webpage!
I am Lisa, an Italian student who have always loved animals and wanted to discover more about their way of communicating. I studied at MSc in Applied Ethology and Animal Biology at Linköping University. Furthermore, I have a strong biological background thanks to my BSc in Biology at Padua University. I hope to increase and spread the knowledge about animal behaviour, because I believe it will help to improve people relationship with animals and their welfare.
Have you ever seen a dog head tilting? They are so cute, right? But have you ever wonder why they do this? I did and in my master thesis project I tried to investigate the reason behind this behaviour in dogs and discover if it is present also in their ancestor species the wolf.
