Weber’s Law states that the ability to distinguish different stimuli depends on relative magnitudes of those stimuli. When applied quantity judgments, this means numerical ratio between two quantities (small amount / large amount) will underlie quantities. Ratio-dependent quantification is a hallmark has been demonstrated across range species, including dogs. However, other factors such as difference (large - small are confounded with but would not support Law. Most work dog abilities only...

To promote collaboration across canine science, address replicability issues, and advance open science practices within animal cognition, we have launched the ManyDogs consortium, modeled on similar ManyX projects in other fields. We aimed to create a collaborative network that (a) uses large, diverse samples investigate replicate findings, (b) promotes of pre-registering hypotheses, methods, analysis plans, (c) investigates influence differences populations breeds, (d) examines how...
