SAFER: NEW HOPE ONLY

Danny came in as a stray, so his past behaviors in a home are unknown. At intake it was reported Danny was quiet and nervous, he allowed all handling. During SAFER Danny came into the assessment room nervous he growl, lunged and tried to bite at the assessor when attempting to collar him so not all handling items were able to be conducted. He displayed no interest in the toy item during this portion of the assessment. In light of this behavior we feel that placement with a rescue who can provide positive reinforcement-based behavior modification is the best option at this time.

Toy 1: No interest.

Dog-dog: When off leash with other dogs, Danny greets approapriately but does not solicit nor engage in play. He spends most of the time exploring the yard.

ENRICHMENT:

As I approached Danny’s kennel, he began barking and backing away from the door. Once the door is open, he continued to bark but would come forward if I put my leash down. He seems to trust people he has seen before, as he came forward when a familiar medical handler and the ACO in the room came to talk to him. They were able to leash him and pick him up out of the kennel. Once in the pen with me, he wandered and marked. After about ten minutes, he could come to me when called and solicit attention by jumping on my legs. He allowed all handling and I was able to pick him up. He was easy to get back into his kennel.

PLAYGROUP: When off leash with other dogs, Danny greets approapriately but does not solicit nor engage in play. He spends most of the time exploring the yard.
