PROFILE: 08/14/17 15:03
Basic information: Jake is a neutered Mini Poodle. He was surrendered back to BACC due to the owner having a new baby in the house and Jake did not get along with the child. He has no known health issues or injuries.
Socialization: Jake barks when people enter his home or walk by the door, and he does not allow for stranger to pet him until he warms up. Jake previously lived with a young child and the owner stated that he did not get along with the baby and the owner did not trust Jake to be alone in the same room as the child. In his next home Jake should be with adults only. He has not lived with cats or dogs. He has no bite history.
Behavior: Jake is a dog with a lot of energy and does alert bark often. He previously lived in an apartment building and the owners were receiving many complaints of his barking. He is crate trained and does enjoys laying in there with his bed.
For a New Family to know: Jake eats dry food and is house trained using wee-wee pads. He will walk well on the leash and only pulls lightly at times. His owner has bathed him and does tolerate a bath, but they have not groomed him or clipped his nails.
Admissions intake behavior: Jake was nervous to come out of the carrier and did not allow counselor to collar him. He kept a stiff body when sniffing around the office but didn’t let anyone touch him.

Jake was nervous, crouched down in his bed, tried to bite during PE, was muzzled for exam.
ENERGY LEVEL:
His previous owner reports a high activity level, which matches what we have seen in the care center. Jake displayed medium-high energy and movement throughout assessment. Jake will need daily mental and physical activity to keep him engaged and exercised.
RECOMMENDATIONS: Experience (suitable for an adopter with some previous dog experience, especially with the (behaviors outlined below).
_X_No children (under 13)-Reactivity towards children was noted by the previous owner. Because this appears to present a challenge outside of the care centers, guidance from a professional trainer/behaviorist is highly advised to assess this behavior and modify/manage as needed. we feel that an adult-only home would be most beneficial at this time.
