Medical NotesThis information is unknown at this time.
For a New Family to KnowThis information is unknown at this time.
Behavior Notes:The finder states that Delilah approached in a “friendly” manner and the finder was able to grab the dogs collar and walk her into the car to bring to the care center. When Delilah entered the care center. She had a tense body and her tailed tucked up to her stomach. The admissions counselor did not handle Delilah to prevent further stress.

Details on my behavior are…

Means of surrender (length of time in previous home):  Stray
Behavior toward strangers:  Allowed the finder to handle.
Behavior toward dogs:  Friendly with the finder’s dog.

Date of assessment:  6-Jan-2018
Summary:

Delilah is difficult to remove from the kennel, lunging, growling and hard barking at the leash (pancakes in the back of his kennel with her ears back when being approached). She appears to be uncomfortable or afraid of the slip lead. She has also allowed minimal handling from his caretakers. Out of concern for her stress levels and her response to restraint, we feel Delilah is not a great candidate for a handling assessment at this time.

Date of intake:  3-Jan-2018
Summary:  Tense, tail tucked, not handled.

Date of initial:  4-Jan-2018
Summary:  Tense, whale eyed, allowed handling, warmed up during the exam.

BEHAVIOR DETERMINATION: NEW HOPE ONLY
Behavior Asilomar
TM – Treatable-Manageable

Recommendations:
No children (under 13)
Place with a New Hope partner

Recommendations comments:

New hope partner: Delilah has not acclimated well to the kennel environment and has allowed only minimal handling since intake. We recommend placement with a New Hope partner who can provide any necessary behavior modification (force-free, positive reinforcement-based) and re-evaluate behavior in a stable home environment before placement into a permanent home.
Potential challenges: Fearful/potential for defensive aggression
Potential challenges comments:

Fearful/potential for defensive aggression: Reactivity towards humans was noted by staff members during intake (fearful, growling and backing away). Because this appears to present a challenge outside of the care centers, guidance from a professional trainer/behaviorist is highly advised to assess this behavior and modify/manage as needed.
