Dog leans into the Assessor, eyes soft, soft and loose body, open mouth. Tag: 1. Dog assumes play position and joins the game.

Summary: During the handling assessment Logan was playful, and displayed a high energy. Though he was a bit mouthy Logan remained soft, and allowed all handling. PLAYGROUP: When off leash at the Care Center, Logan at first greets the novel female dog with a loose, wiggly body. Once he is let into the pen he becomes persistently sexually motivated-mounting and genital sniffing- and is difficult to interrupt. According to Logan’s previous owner, Logan did not socialize with other dogs. The Behavior Department recommends that Logan be placed in a home with a resident dog that is tolerant of his sexually motivated behavior. All introductions should be done slowly and under supervision. INTAKE BEHAVIOR 8/9/17 At intake Logan displayed high energy; greeted all the counselors with a wagging tail and loose body. He enjoys being petted. He allowed being collard, scanned and photographed. MEDICAL BEHAVIOR: 8/10/17 During the examination Logan was friendly; however, he became fearful, vocal, and very anxious during vaccines/treatments, needed restraint/muzzle.

ENERGY LEVEL: His previous owner describes Logan as an energetic, playful, and enthusiastic dog. Logan displayed high energy and movement throughout assessment, 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: Experience (suitable for an adopter with some previous dog experience, especially with the (behaviors outlined below). _X_ No young children (under 5)-His previous owner describes Logan as a high-energy dog. In the care center he has been active and enthusiastic. He may have a low threshold for arousal and needs guidance to learn how to appropriately channel that energy when he becomes overstimulated. He will need daily mental and physical stimulation and exercise, and a force-free, positive reinforcement-based training class may help his to learn impulse control and to train desirable behaviors that can be rewarded. We recommend no young children, Dog-savvy young children can be considered pending interaction. Potential challenges: _X_Social hyper-arousal- Logan has displayed low threshold for arousal, rapidly escalating and quickly becomes (easily aroused, and mouthy.) Immediate intervention and consultation with a qualified veterinary behaviorist/professional trainer is strongly recommended to aid in addressing this issue to prevent further behavioral concerns that may appear in the future if not treated right away. We recommend only force-free, reward based training when introducing or exposing Logan to new and unfamiliar situations. _X_Mouthiness/Poor bite inhibition- While he applies only light pressure, Logan was mouthy throughout the assessment, and is quick to put his teeth on skin. This is likely an attention-seeking behavior, but it should be replaced with an alternative behavior as it can frighten people. We recommend never playing with bare hands – always with a toy – and ending play or attention whenever Logan puts teeth on skin. He should be rewarded with attention and treats when he stops and/or when he is seeking attention in alternate ways.
