U-K dog survey on owners of dogs with sensory impairment

Hi!

My name is Johanna Grondin, I am currently undertaking the Bsc (Hons) Animal Training and Performance programme at Hartpury University.

I am doing a study looking at dog owner perception and management of the sensory loss of their dogs in the United Kingdom (U.K.). This would deepen our understanding of owners of a sensory impaired dog and allow professionals to better support them.

This questionnaire should not take more than 20 minutes to complete.

Please note, this questionnaire mentions potentially sensitive topics such as illnesses, previous pets, and pets in their senior years.

To qualify for participation, participants must:

• Be 18 years old or over.

• Reside in the UK.

• Currently have or have had a dog with at least one sensory impairment (impairment of vision, hearing, smell, touch, taste or balance).

• Confirm that they have read the participant information.

The survey is anonymous.

This survey is not to be taken as training or medical advice.

You can find more information and the survey by following this link: https://forms.cloud.microsoft/e/sNPEWAwVHr

All participation and sharing of this link are greatly appreciated.

Thank you very much for your time and consideration!!
