The owner stated Luky is playful and affectionate around the adults, and wit the children he is relaxed and engage in rough play due to his size. The owner mentioned Luky becomes tense and growls when removing or touching is rawhide.

It was stated by the owner Luky has a previous bite history, Luky was playing with the neighborhood children and owner stated he was getting overly excited. They were running and chasing him around the home. The little girl came into the yard when Luky growled then lunged and bite her right cheek resulting in broken skin.

At intake it was reported Luky was tense but allowed all handling. During SAFER Luky came into the assessment room calm and relaxed, he was social towards the assessor. He allowed all handling items to be conducted without issue. Luky was relaxed during the tag interaction, and during the resources portion of the assessment Luky was easy to handle when engaged with the item. Due to some behavioral concerns and overly excited around children, the behavior department feels Luky can be suitable for an experience adopter and no children.

ENRICHMENT NOTES:

Luky had a loose body when I came to get him out of his kennel and he let me rope him, but he was somewhat reluctant actually stepping outside. When we got outside to the pens he explored and peed and pooped. He came when I called him but did not accept a liver treat.  When I attempted to rope him he became more aroused and tried to engage me in chase play. When I had calmed him down enough to get the rope on, he was softly mouthing the rope near his head. He walked back and went into his kennel with no resistance.

5/24: Luky came up to the kennel door and was trying to push out while I was getting him on the rope.  Once we were out in the pens he tried to engage me in chase play, but because of his known arousal issues I kept relatively still.  When he could not get me to play he chased a pigeon, then calmed down and explored the pens.  When I tried to get him back on the rope he again tried to engage me in chase play and became more aroused, barking and mouthing the rope.  After he had calmed down I got him on the rope and took him back to his kennel, where I had no issue getting him inside.

5/25: Luky was sitting at the front of his kennel when I approached him. He was easy to leash and walk outside to the pens. He repeatedly jumped on me but listen to my interruptions. Afterwards he investigated his surrounding with a soft body. He was easy to walk back and place into his kennel.

5/26: Luky was loose and excited when I approached his kennel. In the pens he solicited attention from me and then wandered. He seemed anxious when he approached the back fence near the street, and he would whine and fixate on something on the other side. He allowed me to grab his leash and went back into his kennel with no issues.

5/27: Luky came to the front of the kennel when I approached. He attempted to push out when I opened the door to rope him. In the pen he seemed anxious at first. He chased his tail and solicited attention from me, trying to softly mouth my hand. Eventually he calmed down and began to explore more slowly. When I took him back he went in his kennel with no issue.
