A Little Bit About Me…

A volunteer writes:

He may officially be a ‘senior citizen’ but don’t tell Jay Jay because this easy-going little fluffernut thinks he’s still a puppy! When I show him the leash he does an adorable dance’n’smile routine and as soon as we hit the street I can see why the hurry–he is SO house trained and has clearly been ‘holding it’ like a good boy for quite some time. Jay Jay’s very spry and has no problem navigating almost any terrain, he enjoys petting, can easily be picked up and held like a baby and as you can see, he’s such a good sport that he even donned a onesie for photos! Naturally he rocked his behavior assessment (perfect scores!) and in playgroup he meets other pups with amiable good manners too. Jay Jay is a little ray of sunshine and he’s looking forward to spending his retirement well fed, well loved and surrounded by an adoring family who’ll truly make these the golden years he deserves.

Details on my behavior are…

Date of assessment: 25-Feb-2018

Look: 1. Dog’s eyes are averted, ears are back, tail is down, relaxed body posture. Dog allows head to be held loosely in Assessor’s cupped hands.

Sensitivity: 1. Dog stands still and accepts the touch, eyes are averted, and tail is in neutral position with a relaxed body posture. Dog’s mouth is likely closed for at least a portion of the assessment item.

Tag: 1. Dog follows at the end of the leash, body soft.

Paw squeeze 1: 1. Dog gently pulls back his/her paw.

Paw squeeze 2: 1. Dog gently pulls back his/her paw.

Toy: 1. Minimal interest in toy, dog may smell or lick, then turns away.

Summary: Jay Jay approached the assessor in the assessment room with a soft body. He was social during the assessment, allowed all handling, and displayed no concerning behaviors.
