The authors wish to make the following corrections to their paper [1]:

In Table 3, arousal was repeated as a row heading at the end—it should have read “friendliness” (see Table 3 below).

Table 3. The behaviours contributing to the emotional states of fear, anxiety, aggression, arousal, and friendliness.

In Table 4, there were errors in the behaviours, their method of recording, the interactions and p-values. The new Table 4 is given below.

Table 4. Differences in kennel behaviour between dogs that were euthanased and adopted, either overall or on certain days.

Scientific results were correctly stated in the text but incorrect in these two tables. The authors would like to apologize for any inconvenience caused.
