Summary: Ivy is fearful and uncomfortable when the handler approaches her. She becomes tense and avoids eye contact. DOG-DOG INTERACTION ASSESSMENT: Summary PLAYGROUP: When off leash with dogs at the Care Center, Ivy is nervous, greeting a novel male dog with a tense face, leaned back body, and tucked tail. She shows interest in greeting him by leaning forward, but scurries away and nervously tucks her tail when he quickly approaches her. She relaxes as the session continues, untucking her tail and standing taller. He then greets him and allows him to greet her as she calmly explores the pen. MEDICAL BEHAVIOR: 3/27/17 During her medical examination, Ivy was tense. ENERGY LEVEL: Ivy displays a low activity level in the care center.

RECOMMENDATIONS: New Hope Only _X_No children (under 13) _X_Recommend no dog parks: Due to Ivy’s nervousness around other dogs, the Behavior Department recommends that she no go to dog parks at this time and should be socialized with other dogs in a more controlled setting. Force-free, reward-based training can be utilized to help Ivy associate other dogs with things she enjoys like treats. _X_Place with a New Hope partner: Due to the warning and distance-increasing behaviors shown in the care center, we recommend placement with a New Hope partner who can provide force free behavior modification. Potential challenges: _X_Handling/touch sensitivity _X_Fearful/potential for defensive aggression: Ivy gives clear warnings when she is uncomfortable and does seem to choose to avoid or retreat when given the opportunity, but if prevented from moving away there is a potential to escalate to higher-level warning behaviors and possible fear-based aggression. It is important to move slowly with Ivy to build positive associations (treats/toys/praise), and to allow Ivy to initiate interactions with new people. She should never be forced to greet or to interact if she is not comfortable and soliciting attention.
