DOG-DOG INTERACTION ASSESSMENT: Summary PLAYGROUP: Hogart was surrendered as a stray, so his past behavior around other dogs is unknown. An attempt was made to introduce Hogart to a novel female. When Hogart greets a novel female dog through the gate, Hogart begins to low growl and bark at the female while muzzle punching the gate. Due to the greeter dog’s nervousness, they were not introduced. MEDICAL BEHAVIOR: 1/26/17: During his medical examination, Hogart was growling, very tense and muzzled for exam. ENERGY LEVEL: RECOMMENDATIONS: Experience (suitable for an adopter with some previous dog experience) _x_Single-dog home/Recommend no dog parks ( Due to the reactivity Hogart has displayed towards other dogs while here at the Care Center, the Behavior Department recommends that Hogart not be placed in a home with other dogs until he has had adquate time to decompress from the shelter and his behavior towards other dogs further addressed in a controlled environment. Force-free, reward-based training can be utilized to help counter-condition Hogart and help him associate other dogs with positive rewards such as toys or treats.)
