02/13/2016 WEB MEMO
A staff member writes: Glacier is the appropriate name for this large loving dude. He can be shy at first but once he warms up to you he will be your best friend. He enjoys playful female dogs and his large size makes it easier for him to tolerate their high energy. When you come into Brooklyn ACC to take him home be prepare for him to put his large body on you for some hugs and kisses!!!

02/10/2016 BEHAVIOR EVALUATION – EXPERIENCE
Exam Type BEHAVIOR
Glacier came in as a stray, so his past behaviors in a home are unknown. At intake it was reported Glacier was tense with firm body posture, he allowed limited handling. During SAFER Glacier came into the assessment room loose and wiggly, he was friendly and social towards the assessor, allowed all handling items to be conducted without issue. Glacier was relaxed during the tag interaction, during the first paw squeeze Glacier body was tense with his mouth closed next flank was applied which he didn’t respond at all. During the resources portion of the assessment Glacier was easy to handle when engaged with the item. Due to some concerns with Glacier becoming tense during paw squeeze item, the behavior department feels he can be suitable for an experience adopter. Look: 1. Dog’s eyes are averted. His ears are back, his tail is down, and he has a relaxed body posture. Dog allows head to be held loosely in Assessor’s cupped hands. Sensitivity: 1. Dog stands still and accepts the touch, his eyes are averted, and his tail is in neutral position with relaxed body posture. Dog’s mouth is likely closed for at least a portion of the assessment item. Tag: 1. Follows at end of leash, body soft. Squeeze 1: 3. Dog closes mouth, becomes tense. Flank squeeze 1: 1. Dog does not respond at all. Toy 1: 1. Dog settles close, keeps a firm grip and is loose and wiggly. He does not place his body between you and the toy. Dog-dog: Glacier greets the other dogs with a low, wiggly body. He can be a little impatient- whining and jumping at the gate- while waiting to get their attention. Glacier engages in bouncy, high energy, running/chase play and is a little unaware of his size but does respond immediately to handler interruptions to slow down.

02/07/2016 GROUP BEHAVIOR EVALUATION 
Exam Type GROUP BEHAVIOR
When off leash with other dogs, Glacier greets the helper dog with a lowered, loose and wiggly body. He is a little hesitant to interact at first but after an offical greeting he engages in a bout of bouncy play. He is tolerant of an assertive female and responds well to her corrections during play. 2/08 update: Glacier greets the other dogs with a low, wiggly body. He can be a little impatient- whining and jumping at the gate- while waiting to get their attention. Glacier engages in bouncy, high energy, running/chase play and is a little unaware of his size but does respond immediately to handler interruptions to slow down. 2/10 update: Glacier greets with a soft, wiggly body and bouncing up and down. The helper dog backs away due to his level of energy. They are introduced but the helper dog hops on the bench and avoids Glacier. He does not respond to her vocal corrections for his pushiness. 2/11 update: Glacier greets with a soft, loose body. He is bouncy and solicits play a bit obnoxiously. He is tolerant of high energy play and will engage in gentler play.
