07/08/2017 PET PROFILE MEMO
07/08/17 19:25 Basic Information: Chedda is guessed to be 2 year old male white dog. He was dropped off this evening by someone that found him in her building floor hallway, loose roaming around. She only had him for a few days but was able to provide us with some information regarding him. Behavior: She did not have kids in the house but when people would walk in the house he wouldn’t know he would greet them with a tail wagging and exuberant kisses. She had a little Yorkshire terrier and stated that they got along and he was playful with her dog. For the New Family: He was not house trained and had an accident at least once in the home. He did not chew any household items and only chewed the dog toys in the house. She was feeding him her dog’s food which was pedigree and he was eating that fine. She said he knew simple commands including “stop” and “sit”. Behavior During Intake: When I approached him he had a wagging tail and eager to jump up and give kisses. He let me scan him for a microchip and he scanned positive. I was easily able to collar him and take off his original collar. He had a very loose body and wagged his tail by my side as we walked to the back together. I was able to pet him as I gave him a little food and he was not bothered by it.

A volunteer writes: Digging into my memory, I just realized that last night was not my first time meeting with Junior. A few days ago, I watched him playing with another volunteer. Such a handsome and attractive dog, leaping through the yard after a ball that he caught each time expertly, and released willingly to his caretaker. I was with another dog in an adjacent pen and both pooches were cool with each other. I imagine Junior as a strong and lively boy. He has been so well cared for, is dressed perfectly, owns the most beautiful smile and eyes that speak so eloquently his “joie de vivre”. Junior has a cold right now, and I guess that his energy is a bit tamed. Still, he is quite excited to go for a walk, get his mouth on tasty treats and do his business outside his kennel. He does like to bond with his caretakers and plants himself un-invited but so welcome on my lap for kisses and hugs. Junior was found by a good Samaritan on her building floor. She kept him in for a few days, fed him and let him play with her Yorkie. While surrendering Junior, she had only good comments to make about him. Gorgeous Junior has caught my eyes and my heart. He is one of those dogs I think of at home and at work, long after I left my shift at the care center. I would love to see him happy and safe with a loving and caring person or family, and in a new home he could call his own. Junior is at the Manhattan Care Center.

Exam Type BEHAVIOR
KNOWN HISTORY: Limited Profile 7/8/17 Unaltered Male, Stray (With finder for a few days) Previously lived with: Adults and a small dog Behavior toward strangers: Friendly Behavior toward dogs: Playful with the dog in the home Housetrained: No SAFER ASSESSMENT: 7/12/17 Look: 1. Dog’s eyes are averted, with tail wagging and ears back. He allows head to be held loosely in Assessor’s cupped hands. Sensitivity: 1. Dog leans into the Assessor, eyes soft or squinty, soft and loose body, open mouth. Tag: 1. Dog assumes play position and joins the game. Squeeze 1: 1. Dog gently pulls back his paw. Squeeze 2: 3. Dog is soft in body and eye, and moves his legs/body so that the Assessor is unable to hold the paw. Toy: 1. Dog settles close, keeps a firm grip and is loose and wiggly. He does not place his body between you and the toy. Summary: Junior jumped up on the assessor in an attention seeking manner during his assessment. He was social throughout and allowed all handling. PLAYGROUP: 7/9: When introduced off leash to the female greeter dog, Junior is anxious and ignores the female greeter dog. The previous owner of Junior describes that he was “playful” around the other dog in the home. Due to limited observation, the behavior department recommends that future introductions are conducted at a slow pace to dogs who are well socialized and respectful. INTAKE BEHAVIOR Upon intake, Junior had a loose body and allowed handling. MEDICAL BEHAVIOR: 7/8/17 During his initial medical exam, Junior was tense but allowed handling. ENERGY LEVEL: We have no history on Junior so we cannot be certain of his behavior in a home environment. However, he is a young, enthusiastic, social dog who will need daily mental and physical activity to keep him engaged and exercised. We recommend long-lasting chews, food puzzles, and hide-and-seek games, in additional to physical exercise, to positively direct his energy and enthusiasm. RECOMMENDATIONS: Average (suitable for an adopter with an average amount of dog experience)
