“…In this sport, there is an interaction between humans and dogs (e.g., referred to as human-animal interaction, or HAI for short), which generates calming and healthy effects in both species as a result of oxytocin production [4]. In addition, dogs have the potential to increase people's motivation to carry out various activities, which positively affects the former's mental well-being and helps them manage negative emotions and other mental health problems, such as anxiety and depression [5].…”

Canicross is a sport that consists of running while being pulled by a dog in a natural environment. Due to the benefits to health and well-being that it brings to the people and dogs that practise it, this sport could be implemented as an animal-assisted intervention (AAI) in the educational field. Against this background, the present work describes a pilot experience carried out in an educational centre in the Basque Country for the implementation of canicross as an extracurricular sports activity. The main objective is to describe the educational potential of canicross as an extracurricular activity that fosters students’ values of respect for animals and physical activity (PA) in natural environments. The results of this innovative experience provide the first evidence of the valuable role of animal activities in this educational context, where current academic research is practically non-existent. In conclusion, we highlight the novelty of the proposal and the motivating effect that the dogs in this case had among the students in encouraging them to practise PA and adhere to values of respect and animal welfare.

“…En relación a estos estudios, recientemente se comenzó a investigar sobre la importancia de la oxitocina (OT) en las habilidades sociocognitivas de los perros (Díaz Videla & López, 2017). La OT es un neuropéptido y hormona sintetizada en los núcleos supraóptico y paraventricular del hipotálamo.…”

Dadas las crecientes investigaciones acerca de las habilidades sociocognitivas de los perros domésticos, recientemente se renovó el interés hacia sus correlatos fisiológicos. Particularmente se está indagando en el papel de la oxitocina (OT), una neurohormona que modula las conductas afiliativas y sociocognitivas de diversas especies. El objetivo del presente trabajo es realizar una revisión de los estudios sobre los efectos de la OT en las conductas sociocognitivas en perros. Se analizarán los trabajos que miden OT endógena y los efectos de la administración exógena. Asimismo, se presentarán las posibles áreas de aplicación, así como la dirección de futuras investigaciones en el área.
