KNOWN HISTORY: N/A Unaltered, Stray SAFER ASSESSMENT: 11/3/16 Look: 2. Dog’s eyes are averted. Her body posture is a bit tense and fearful; her tail is low and not moving. She allows head to be held loosely in Assessor’s cupped hands. Sensitivity: 2. Dog stands still and accepts the touch, her eyes are averted, and her tail is between her legs, body a bit tense with her mouth closed. Tag: 1. Follows at end of leash, body soft. Squeeze 1&2: 1. Dog gently pulls back her paw. Toy: 1. No interest Summary: Carrie appeared uncomfortable throughout her assessment though tolerated all handling; she may benefit from a slow/soft approach. PLAYGROUP: Carrie was surrendered as a stray so her past behavior around dogs is unknown. When off leash with dogs at the Care Center, Carrie was initially nervous when she interacted with male and female dogs. With further playgroup sessions, Carrie displays stiff but bouncy body language when solicited to play. She offers correction when a male mounts her. With nervous dogs, Carrie displays stiff body language and assertive posturing- standing tall and chin overs. When interacting with a confident male dog, Carrie displays soft body language as she wanders in the pen. The Behavior Department believes it would be in Carries best interest to be the only dog in the home, however a proper dog-dog interaction can be conducted with a well-socialized dog to assess compatibility. MEDICAL BEHAVIOR: 11/03/16 During her initial medical examination, Carrie allowed all handling without issue. ENERGY LEVEL: Carrie displays a low activity level in the care center. RECOMMENDATIONS: Experience _X_No young children (under 5)(Carrie appears to do best upon a slow/soft approach and has been observed to startle upon challenging movements/loud noises; for this reason, a home without young children is advised.) _x_ No dog parks.
