(A) Scatter plot showing correlation between dog food-motivation and owner management scores. Spearman correlation rs = 0.30, p = 0.00001. (B) Box and whisker plot showing difference in owner management scores between dogs with different body condition scores. Boxes extend to 25th and 75th percentiles, central line shows median, whiskers the minimum and maximum values. Pearson correlation coefficient r = 0.19, p = 0.01.
