We wanted to understand what effect sleepovers had on dogs' behaviour and if being away from the shelter environment, even temporarily, potentially reduced the stress they experience," said Clive Wynne, lead researcher of the study.The team tracked the dogs' stress by measuring the stress hormone cortisol before, during and after sleepovers.
