WEB MEMO

A volunteer writes:
A sparkling inspiration to the rest of us middle-aged folks, Caress is a sociable, happy-go-lucky gal who bounces through the world spreading sunshine and kisses all around and I can only imagine what a delightful little dynamo she must have been as a puppy. A kennel is no place for a personality as big as hers and she’s thrilled to head outside for a nice walk to the park, pulling strongly at first but quickly settling into a comfortable pace once we switch to a harness leash. Caress appears to be house trained and greets passersby with polite interest before returning to the all important business of sniff sniff sniffing her way over the path, through the grass and right up to a deliciously scented garbage can–my boring old treats simply can’t compete! Never anything but friendly and loving, Caress isn’t one to initiate snuggles but she certainly enjoys receiving them and always offers me a faceful of sweet thank you smooches in return. Every person she meets is a friend, every dog an ally and even cats get a calm and well-mannered greeting when we share an elevator ride together. Caress is far from the delicate rose her name suggests, she’s a bold and beautiful sunflower ready to brighten up the hearts of her new family for many happy years to come. So turn away from the winter cold and step on over to the sunny (and snuggly!) side of the street…Caress will be waiting for you….

01/06/2016 BEHAVIOR EVALUATION – NH ONLY
Exam Type BEHAVIOR
Caress pulls a bit on the leash. She was excited during assessment – jumped up, grabbing at the leash. She was overexcited during handling, jumping up, grabbing at the leash, and was hard to position, but showed no aggression. Caress became over aroused during the tag interaction, grabbing the leash and was very difficult to distract her. The behavior team was unable to do the squeeze and the flank because Caress keep grabbing at the leash. She was not interested in toys. The behavior department feels that he would do best if placed with a New Hope partner who can follow up on this behavior in a more stable environment and can provide any necessary behavior modification before placement into a permanent home. Look: 3. Dog jumps on the Assessor, consistently rubs his shoulder on the Assessor, and will not allow Assessor to conduct the assessment. Sensitivity: 2. Dog displays high energy and movement, but it is directed toward getting closer to the Assessor. Her body is soft, likely panting, may jump up between attempts to lick Assessor. Tag: 3. Dog responds with her tail high, ears forward, mouth likely closed for at least half of the assessment item, body stiff and body checks the Assessor. Dog is often focused on other stimuli in the room. Toy: 1. No interest.
