01/04/2016 PET PROFILE MEMO
01/04/16 12:39 Buddy Grey was found as a stray roaming in Van Cortlandt Park near a dog run at 6AM. The group of finders (neighborhood dog owners) have never seen Buddy Grey before and could not find an owner. He was more interested in playing with the one of the finder’s male intact pitbull mix than interacting with people. He was playful but did get stiff when the other dog attempted to mount him. He gave corrective barks/growls but did not attempt to bite. He also ran to interact with a cocker spaniel and would play bow to him. When the finders approached Buddy Grey at first, he became stiff, made himself seem smaller and gave whale eye. After about 30 min of just sitting next to him, Buddy Grey allowed the one of the finders to pet him and place a leash over his head. He pulled while walking on leash and was afraid to cross the street when cars were present. He was more relaxed when walking in the grass. Buddy Grey rode in the elevator with no signs of stress/anxiety. In one of the finder’s home, Buddy Grey was interested in exploring the surroundings. He sat on the couch when invited ontop and just slept. He allowed petting but did become stiff and gave a lip curl when finder attmepted to hug him and touch his face. Once the finder stopped, he became more relaxed and low wagged his tail. he began to solicit attention of the male finder by running towards him and sitting next to his feet. Buddy Grey was not interested in treats/toys when offered.

01/06/2016 WEB MEMO
A volunteer writes: Buddy Gray knows Yoga! He does an outstanding ‘downward dog’!! How’s that for smart! My handsome new friend wags his tail as we walk, goes potty the moment we’re out the door and jumps up for kisses. He’s so quiet in his kennel, sitting up front waiting his turn for a walk — pretty impressive! He’s a bit shy when we first meet but we chat as we walk to the park and BG relaxes. He pulls on the leash a bit, so a harness may help. When we’re off leash in the back yard BG is interested in exploring everything, wanting to meet the dog in an adjoining pen. He comes when called, and when I left the pen for a minute, he was happy and tail waggy when I returned. BG likes to play, and when I engaged him in some running play he responded with a wagging tail and some hops. Handsome and well groomed, BG is quiet and well behaved, looking for his happily ever after to start today. Who’s going to be the lucky person to take him home?
