Abstract With a growing number of dogs abandoned, living in shelters, and being rehomed, it is important to distinguish behavioural responses due stress our domestic companions. Cortisol involved the animals which generally enters individual’s body into “state emergency”. Prolonged can lead exhaustion, disease, death. Chronic be detected by evaluating cortisol concentration hair. Most domesticated respond well hair collection, thus avoiding further stressors. The method simple, relatively inexpensive, non-invasive. Our experiment focused on assessing multiple parameters using modified Canine Behavioural Assessment Research Questionnaire evaluate their significance with samples from diverse range dogs. Each parameter was tested against t-Test, i. e., Paired Two Sample for Means. effect weight levels statistically significant (P = 0.03). This fact revealed that an increase correlated levels.
