Summary: Manchas was anxious during his handling assessment, and he needed a lot of coaxing to position throughout the assessment.

DOG-DOG INTERACTION ASSESSMENT: Summary PLAYGROUP: According to Manchas’ previous guardian, around other dogs Manchas will pull on leash and attempt to seek other dog to engage. When off leash with dogs at the Care Center, Manchas is nervous, greeting the novel female dog with a tense face and lowered body. He greets the female briefly displays soft body language before keeping to himself and exploring the pen. Manchas displays soft body language when greeting a novel male dog. He solicits play with a play bow, but explores the pen when play is not reciprocated. He briefly mounts the other male dog but responds well to handler interruptions and continues to explore. MEDICAL BEHAVIOR: 4/6/17 During his initial medical examination, Mancha was highly active and was difficult to restrain.

ENERGY LEVEL: Mancha’s previous owner reports a high activity level, which matches what we have seen in the care center. RECOMMENDATIONS: New Hope Only _X_Place with a New Hope partner –Manchas has been active and at times difficult to restrain in the care center, though has generally been responsive to human cues and has not shown human-directed aggression. However, he showed a highly concerning behavior over the toy during the SAFER assessment, quickly escalating to a bite of the assess-a-hand when an attempt was made to remove the toy. While this behavior was not reported in the home, we are concerned at this quick arousal and escalation so we recommend placement with a New Hope partner who can further investigate this behavior in a stable home environment and provide any necessary behavior modification. Potential challenges: _X_Resource guarding- Manchas escalated to a bite over the toy on the SAFER assessment, which may manifest as guarding behavior in a future home. If it does, we recommend only force-free, reward-based behavior modification to address the challenges. _X_Mouthiness/Poor bite inhibition- While he applies only light pressure, Manchas 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 Manchas 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. _X_Anxiety- Manchas has shown some signs of potential anxiety in the care center, vocalizing (whining, chatter and jumping) continually through the SAFER. This behavior was reported at intake, and we have history on Manchas, so we cannot be certain whether similar behavior will be seen in a future home environment. _X_Leash-biting – see the full owner profile for details
