02/28/2016 BEHAVIOR EVALUATION – EXPERIENCE
Exam Type BEHAVIOR
In playgroup, Marina greets with a stiff posture and lip lick. Once inside the pen, she becomes assertive, pushing her body up on the helper dog and giving low growls. She does respond to human interrupters but after 3 occasions of interruptions, Marina turns towards the helper dog, closes her mouth tight and gives a hard stare. Due to her behavior around other dogs, the Behavior Department feels that Marina is suitable for an “experienced” adopter who can manage her dog interactions and will provide supervised socialization with a professional behaviorist or trainer utilizing positive reinforcement behavior modification techniques. 2/25 SAFER: Marina came in as a stray, so her past behaviors in a home are unknown. At intake it was reported Marina was calm with loose body posture, she allowed all handling. During SAFER Marina came into the assessment room loose and wiggly, she was friendly and social towards the assessor. She allowed all handling items to be conducted without issue. Marina gets easily aroused but quickly de-escalates once the game ends during the tag interaction and during the resources portion of the assessment Marina was easy to handle when engaged with the item. Marina appears to be a high-energy dog that will likely do best with an adopter prepared to provide mental and physical stimulation and appropriate outlets for his energy. Look: 2. Dog pulls out of Assessor’s hands each time without settling during three repetitions. Sensitivity: 1. Dog leans into the Assessor, eyes soft, soft and loose body, open mouth. Tag: 2. Dog gets easily aroused but quickly de-escalates once game ends. Squeeze 1 & 2: 1. Dog gently pulls back her paw. Toy: 1. No interest. Dog-dog: When off leash with other dogs, Marina greets with a high energy, wiggly body. She enters the pen with the same high energy and with a tense body. She does not offer any play solicitations, instead she pushes her face right into the face of the other dog several times. Marina does respond well to human interruptors when she needs to be slowed down.
