08/16/2016 BEHAVIOR EVALUATION – NH ONLY
Exam Type BEHAVIOR
Juno walks calmly on leash. He was sociable toward the handler during the assessment – soft body. He was calm and relaxed during handling. Juno was distracted, focused on objects in the room rather than the handler during the tag test. He showed some concerning behavior during toy tests – stiffening and growling, but did not escalate to a snap or bite to the assess-a-hand. The behavior department feels that he would do best if placed with a New Hope partner who can follow up on this behavior in a more stable environment and can provide any necessary behavior modification before placement into a permanent home. Look: 1. Dog holds gaze with soft eyes, soft body. He allows head to be held loosely in Assessor’s cupped hands. Dog holds gaze for three full seconds. Sensitivity: 1. Dog stands still and accepts the touch, his eyes are averted, and his tail is in neutral position with relaxed body posture. Dog’s mouth is likely closed for at least a portion of the assessment item. Tag: 2. Dog is not fearful, but is unresponsive to the Assessor, and approaches the Assessor at the end of the game (may need coaxing to approach.) He is focused on stimuli other than the Assessor. Squeeze 1/2: 1. Dog gently pulls back his paw. Toy: 4. Dog growls. Dog-dog: 2. Dog does not approach the helper dog.
