This suggests that it would be appropriate to replicate these studies, in order to clarify whether there is a widespread sex difference in paw preference in dogs, and also to compare the results from different tests.

"It may be that dogs without a paw preference have not had a lot of human interaction and so have not developed this preference. They would also be more nervous."

The production of specific antibodies (IgG), interleukin-10 (IL-10) and interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) was evaluated in dogs in relation to behavioural lateralisation as assessed by paw preference. ... The titers of anti-rabies antibodies were lower in left-pawed dogs than in right-pawed and ambidextrous dogs. Similarly,

Population lateralisation was observed, but in opposite directions in the two sexes (animals were not desexed): males preferentially used their left paw, females their right paw. The relationship between immune function and paw preference was then investigated.

Previous studies of motor laterality in dogs have produced some conflicting results, with inconsistencies in lateral biases across sexes, over time, and across tasks. The current study modified published food-retrieval and tape-removal ... Paw preference in dogs: relations between lateralised behaviour and immunity.

Previous studies have described paw preference and asymmetry in dog brains. Electrical activity of the dorsal hippocampus also indicated the existence of hippocampal asymmetry in dogs. In the present study, the possible paw and sex-related asymmetries and right-left differences in dog hippocampus were investigated.

I made really difficult decision a few weeks ago that seven dogs, two babies, and a pony... was really just too much. So though I'm still totally in shock and I'm not sure I'll ever be totally ok with my decision, I decided with much turmoil that I would attempt to wean our herd of dogs down to four.

Previous studies have described the paw preference and asymmetry in dog brains, based on experimental studies. The purpose of the present study is to investigate a possible association between callosal anatomy and paw preference in dogs.
