Positions of pivot points in quadrupedal locomotion: limbs and trunk global control in four different dog breeds.
E. Andrada, G. Hildebrandt, H. Witte, M. S. Fischer
The paper analyzes global control dynamics in four dog breeds during walk and trot, identifying virtual pivot points (VPPs) that are gait and breed specific, with breed-related changes mainly observed in French Bulldogs.
