06/14/2016 PET PROFILE MEMO
06/14/16 Honey A1077424 is a 1.5 year old female American Staffordshire Terrier mix. She was born at home. They had to surrender her with her mother Lady A1077423 due to the NYCHA breed regulations. Honey’s family had rehomed her but discovered that she was being abused and took her back when she was 8 months old. Her right rear limb was broken. It was splinted at home and she limps on it. She also had lacerations that appeared to be bite wounds on her face, body, and legs. These healed at home. Honey has a lump in her mammary glands that’s been growing for about 6 months. She also has a lump on her left elbow. Honey is friendly/outgoing with new people. She lived with 11 children from babies and older. She was relaxed, playful, and tolerant with them. She plays exuberantly with people. She was relaxed, playful, affectionate, and tolerant with Lady. They played somewhat rough and slept together. Honey is relaxed and playful with dogs she meets outside, sniffing them and wagging her tail. She hasn’t bit anyone. Honey doesn’t mind storms. She doesn’t mind when someone takes her food/treat/toy, moves her off furniture, holds/restrains her, wakes her up, or bathes her. She will drink water from the tub during her bath if not distracted or held. She barks when someone knocks at the door. She’s friendly with strangers who approach her home/family. Honey’s family describes her as friendly, affectionate, playful, and medium energy. She follows her family. She played with rope toys and played chase, fetch, and tug. She lived inside and slept next to her owner’s bed. She ate dry Pedigree food. She’s housetrained, potties in grass, and doesn’t have accidents. She’s well-behaved while left alone inside. She has been left in a yard with a 3′ gate fence for a few minutes at a time and was well-behaved. She sits and lies down when asked. She went for slow-brisk walks and pulled on her leash. Honey walked a long distance to ACC. She was panting. She approached and sniffed me. She would flinch slightly when we pet her at first, but she didn’t retreat. After a few minutes, she maintained a soft body while we pet her, scanned her (-), collared her, wrapped a leash around her as a harness, and positioned her for pictures. She took treats gently. While I worked at the computer, she usually lied on the floor next to Lady with her legs stretched behind her and her head on the floor. She sometimes looked at the door where her family left.

06/16/2016 BEHAVIOR EVALUATION – NH ONLY
Exam Type BEHAVIOR
Honey came into our center along with another similarly sized dog (her mother) as an owner surrender citing housing issues. It is reported Honey was born at home, she lived in a house with 11 children of various ages, relaxed, playful, affectionate, and tolerant. Owner reports Honey doesn’t mind if anyone touches her Food, Toys, Treats. Honey is reportedly housebroken to go outside and is well behaved when home alone. She is described as friendly, affectionate, playful. During intake, Honey flinched when approached by admissions counselor, warmed up after a few minutes and took treats gently. Honey pulled very hard on leash for her relief walk. She was uncomfortable upon entering the SAFER assessment room, body low. Honey growled at handler when attempting to leash, therefore tactile portions of the assessment were skipped. Honey showed minimal interest in Toy, sniffing a few times but not fully engaging. This may be due to environment as Owner reports Honey plays with rope toys and plays chase, fetch, and tug. When off leash with other dogs, Honey is cautious in the yard environment. She ignores approach from the helper dog. Honey must be placed with a New Hope partner where she can take her time to adjust to her sudden change in familiar environment and become better socialized. Toy 1. Minimal interest. Dog smells, then walks away. Dog-dog: When off leash with other dogs, Honey is cautious in the yard environment. She ignores approach from the helper dog.

06/15/2016 GROUP BEHAVIOR EVALUATION
Exam Type GROUP BEHAVIOR
6/15: When off leash with other dogs, Honey is cautious in the yard environment. She ignores approach from the helper dog. 6/16: Honey ignores the female helper dog and roams the yard. Honey arrived into our care with a second, with whom her owner cited “she was relaxed, playful, affectionate, and tolerant with. They played somewhat rough and slept together.” Previous owner also cites “Honey is relaxed and playful with dogs she meets outside, sniffing them and wagging her tail.” However, due to observed levels of discomfort in a new enivormnent, the behavior department recommends allowing Honey time to decompress in a new home before following up on her behavior around other dogs.
