Broly
Hello, my name is Broly. My animal id is #10786. I am a male brown dog at the Brooklyn Animal Care Center. The shelter thinks I am about 3 years old.
I came into the shelter as a owner surrender on 25-Oct-2017, with the surrender reason stated as person circumstance- landlord won’t allow.
Sorry, this pet is for new hope partners only.
10/29/17 3:32PM Broly is at risk for behavior concerns (New Hope Only behavior determination). Broly appears to be uncomfortable or afraid of the slip lead. He has also allowed minimal handling from his caretakers. Broly is very fearful and sensitive towards touch when attempting to pet him, he is very aware of his surroundings.

Summary:: Broly appears to be uncomfortable or afraid of the slip lead. He has also allowed minimal handling from his caretakers. Broly is very fearful and sensitive towards touch when attempting to pet him, he is very aware of his surroundings. The assessor tried to coax Broly towards them and that’s when he growled giving a warning. Out of concern for his stress levels and his response to restraint, we feel Broly is not a great candidate for a handling assessment at this time. Please see his owner surrender profile for a full summary of his behavior in his previous home.
Summary (1):: According to Broly’s previous owner, Broly lived with 2 other male large dogs. He was relaxed and gentle with both of them. 10/26: When off leash at the Care Center, Broly initially is nervous and quickly moves pass the novel female dog. Further into his session, he exchanges sniff with the greeter, and becomes sexually motivated. He takes time to respond to handler interruptions. 10/27: Today, Broly mostly kept to himself, exploring the pens. He greeted the novel female dog with a soft body and was tolerant of her assertive posturing. 10/28: Broly is sexually motivated and repeatedly licks the other dog’s genitals. He moves away when handlers approach him.

Recommendations comments:: New hope only: Due to the warning and distance-increasing behaviors shown in the care center, we recommend placement with a New Hope partner who can provide force free behavior modification to address his high level of being fearful.
Potential challenges: : House soiling,Fearful/potential for defensive aggression
Potential challenges comments:: Fearful/potential for defensive aggression: Broly has displayed fearful behavior in shelter, he displays no social behavior towards handlers and attempts to increase distance and avoid contact. Because he is so uncomfortable, Broly tolerates minimal handling of human-touch and has growl when being too close.
