Details on my behavior are…
Spay/Neuter status: No Means of surrender (length of time in previous home): Unknown Previously lived with: Unknown Behavior toward strangers: Unknown Behavior toward children: Unknown Behavior toward dogs: Unknown Behavior toward cats: Unknown Resource guarding: Unknown Bite history: Unknown Housetrained: Unknown Energy level/descriptors: Unknown Other Notes: Unknown Date of assessment: 1-Oct-2017 Look: 1. Dog’s eyes are averted, with tail wagging and ears back. Allows head to be held loosely in Assessor’s cupped hands. Sensitivity: 1. Dog stands still and accepts the touch, eyes are averted, and tail is in neutral position with a relaxed body posture. Dog’s mouth is likely closed for at least a portion of the assessment item. Tag: 1. Dog assumes play position and joins the game. Or dog indicates play with huffing, soft ‘popping’ of the body, etc. Dog might jump on Assessor once play begins. Paw squeeze 1: 1. Dog gently pulls back his/her paw. Paw squeeze 2: 1. Dog gently pulls back his/her paw. Toy: 1. Minimal interest in toy, dog may smell or lick, then turns away. Summary: Earl was friendly, playful and social towards the assessor. Summary (1): When off leash at the Care Center, Earl is sexually motivated, persistently mounting the other dogs. He ignores most corrections and interruptions, and needs to be separated. Earl was surrender as a stray so his past behavior with other dogs is unknown. The Behavior Department recommends that Earl be placed in home with resident dogs that are extremely tolerant of his sexually motivated behavior. Summary (2): 9/29: Earl is sexually motivated- persistently mounting the greeter. He engages in play with the goal to mount, and needs to be interrupted by handlers several times. He briefly wanders the pens, before attempting to mount the greeter again. Summary (3): 9/30: Earl continues to be sexually motivated, ignoring all corrections and interruptions. He was eventually separated by handlers. Date of intake: 1-Oct-2017 Summary: Friendly, loose, wiggly and allowed all handling Date of initial: 1-Oct-2017 Summary: Playful, wiggly, allowed all handling ENERGY LEVEL: We have no history on Earl so we cannot be certain of his behavior in a home environment. However, he is a young, enthusiastic, social dog who will need daily mental and physical activity to keep him engaged and exercised. We recommend long-lasting chews, food puzzles, and hide-and-seek games, in additional to physical exercise, to positively direct his energy and enthusiasm.
