Behavior: Average Home

Liono came in as a stray, so his past behaviors in a home are unknown. During SAFER Liono came into the assessment room calm and relaxed, he was friendly and affectionate towards the assessor. He allowed all handling items to be conducted without issue. Liono was relaxed during the tag interaction, and during the resources portion of the assessment Liono was easy to handle when engaged with the item. Liono appears to be sociable, and did not display any behaviors concerns, so the department feels he can be suitable for an “Average” adopter.

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: 1. Follows at end of leash, body soft, or low and a bit fearful.

Squeeze 1&2: 1. Dog does not respond at all for three seconds. His eyes are averted and his ears are relaxed.

Toy: 1. Minimal interest in Toy, dog smells, then turns away.

Dog-dog: 2. Dog approaches helper dog with tail at spine level, body soft, ears relaxed, and lip neutral.
