The studies are part of a new trend: to look for integration of response rather than investigating each part/function separately. The fMRI studies show that touch has a wide impact on the brain, influencing our sensations, our movements, our thought processes and our capacity to learn new movements.
Dogs are most sensitive to sounds in the frequency range from 500 to 16kHz. REVERBERATION TIME. This is the time for a sound to decay to 60dB. Kennels by their nature have poor acoustic properties; hard, smooth surfaces do not absorb noise, therefore any noise generated tends to reverberate inside the building.
The average respiratory rate for canines is 24 breaths per minute, but typically a dog's respiratory rate will be between 10 and 30 breaths per minute. This number may be affected by a few factors such as: 1  The age of the dog, as puppies may have a faster respiratory rate (between 15 and 35 breaths per minute, during the first few weeks of life) 2  The breed, as some dogs may have a different anatomy of the nose that will make them breathe faster or slower.
