We are currently seeking dog owners to fill out the new version of the Dog Personality Questionnaire (DPQ) online. In this questionnaire, you will be asked to indicate how well descriptions of canine behavior describe your dog; you will receive immediate feedback on how you have rated your dog's personality. To fill out this questionnaire, go to survey.psy.utexas.edu/API/dpq.php, or Click here.

If you are interested in learning more about this study, please go to the DPQ Information Page.

We also maintain a database of volunteers who might be interested in participating in future studies. Future studies will include new, revised versions of our Dog Personality Questionnaire (DPQ), as well as other questionnaire-based studies. If you would like to sign up as a potential participant, we will e-mail you when new study opportunities arise. If you qualify for a given study, you will have the choice of participating. If you would like first to read more about our research, please visit our Research page.
