• Warring brothers: The complex interactions between wolves (Canis lupus) and dogs (Canis familiaris) in a conservation context (2014, unknown): “The combination of attentiveness and trustworthiness should drive the dog to develop a protective behaviour towards the flock (Coppinger and Schneider, 1995; Coppinger and Coppinger, 2005).”
• Dog Breeds and Their Behavior (2014, background): “Since the grey wolf (Canis lupus)—the putative ancestor—is typically more fearful or neophobic and potentially more aggressive towards humans than most dogs, the first stage in the process probably involved relatively intense selection for ‘tameness’ or docility (Coppinger and Schneider 1995).”
