Toy:  1. No interest.

Summary:  Chance came into the assessment room loose and wiggly, he was friendly and playful towards the handlers. He can become easily aroused on the tag item mouthy the leash.

Summary (1):  During his last stay here at the Care Center in February, Chance was sexually motivated and difficult to interrupt. His recent owner reported he was playful with the resident dog and was somewhat rough while mounting her.
5/10: When off leash at the Care Centers, Chance enters the pens with a tense posture, tail upright and hackles raised. He exchanges muzzle greets and explores the yard, maintaining his posture throughout the session. When the greeter’s energy increases a bit, Chance jumps on her, attempting to mount her. He is easily redirected by handlers and moves away.
5/15: Chance rushes into the pens with a stiff posture and raised hackles. He follows the greeter throughout the yard, jumping on her when she solicits play. He is slowed down multiple times by handlers.

Date of initial:  15-May-2018

Summary:  Wags tail and allows all handling.

ENERGY LEVEL:  Chance displays a high activity level in the care center.

BEHAVIOR DETERMINATION:  ADULT ONLY HOME

Behavior Asilomar, TM – Treatable-Manageable

Recommendations:  No children (under 13)

Recommendations comments:  No children: Due to the behavior seen in the care center, we feel that Chance may be intimidated for children. Dog-savvy young children can be considered pending interaction, we feel that an adult-only home would be most beneficial at this time.

Potential challenges:  Basic manners/poor impulse control,  Social hyperarousal,  Mouthiness/poor bite inhibition

Potential challenges comments:  Basic manner/poor impulse control: – It is recommended that default behaviors such as “Leave it”, “Sit/Stay”, “Down” are reinforced to substitute any frustration and teach her to control her impulses instead of simply reacting; proper management is also advised. Force-free, reward based training only is recommended.
Social hyperarousal: Dog has displayed low threshold for arousal, and escalating to become mouthy towards the leash and adding a light pressure towards the handler. Immediate intervention and consultation with a qualified veterinary behaviorist/professional trainer is strongly recommended to aid in addressing this issue to prevent further behavioral concerns that may appear in the future if not treated right away. We recommend only force-free, reward based training when introducing or exposing Chance to new and unfamiliar situations.
Mouthiness/poor bite inhibition: Chance has shown some mouthiness in the care center. Little pressure is applied, but this is a behavior that should be extinguished through training alternate behaviors and lack of reward (ex. walking away whenever Chance’s teeth make contact with skin).

Other:  5/16 Experience(Adult only home)

A Little Bit About Me…

A volunteer writes: This energetic young boy is still a puppy (even if he’s two years old!) He loves to run and play, absolutely loves his people (his former owner tells us he followed her everywhere), and has a tail that wags like a helicopter rotor. Chance sits very nicely for treats (often without even being asked!), seems to be housetrained, and is looking for his forever home. If you’re looking for a sweet, active, and exuberant dog, come and meet Chance today!
