Tag:1. Follows at end of leash, body soft.

Squeeze 1&2: 1. Dog gently pulls back his paw.

Toy: 1. No interest.

Summary: Gelato was very friendly, playful and affectionate towards the assessor.

PLAYGROUP:

When off leash at the Care Center, Gelato displays sexually motivated behavior in a group setting. He listens to handler interruptions, and explores the pens. Gelato was surrender as a stray so his past behavior with other dogs is unknown. The Behavior Department recommends  that Gelato be placed in a home with resident dogs that are tolerant of his sexually motivated behavior and match his calm sociability.

09/02/17: Gelato displays a high vibrating tail, and teeth chatters. He licks the novel female genitals and repeatedly mounts her. He briefly listens to handler interruptions before reattempting to mount.

09/05/17: Gelato displays a soft but tall posture when greeting a neuter male. He persistently sniff his genitals, before exploring the pens.

INTAKE BEHAVIOR

Upon intake Gelato was very exuberant, he did not allow the counselor to collar him.

MEDICAL BEHAVIOR:

During his medical examination, Gelato was very excited and attention seeking, he allowed all handling.

ENERGY LEVEL: We have no history on Gelato 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.

RECOMMENDATIONS: Average (suitable for an adopter with an average amount of dog experience)
