Asap
Hello, my name is Asap. My animal id is #12328. I am a male white dog at the Brooklyn Animal Care Center. The shelter thinks I am about 3 years 2 weeks old.
I came into the shelter as a stray on 11-Nov-2017.
Asap is at risk for behavior concerns (New Hope Only behavior determination) including a bite history. Due to some noted concerns displayed in a home environment, the behavior department recommends Asap be placed with a New Hope placement partner who is able to provide an experienced adult-only foster home.
My medical notes are…

Summary (1):: Asap’s owner did not provide any details about his behavior around other dogs. 11/12: When off leash at the Care Center, Asap is bouncy and excited to meet the female helper dog.

He greets briefly then wanders the yard, exploring.

Recommendations comments:: New hope partner: Due to some noted concerns displayed in a home environment, the behavior department recommends Asap be placed with a New Hope placement partner who is able to provide an experienced adult-only foster home. A period of decompression is recommended to allow Asap to acclimate comfortably to his new environment; force-free, reward based training only is advised when introducing Asap to new and unfamiliar situations. Consultation with a professional trainer/behaviorist is highly recommended for guidance to safely manage/modify any behavior Asap presents with outside of the care centers.
