08/07/2016 WEB MEMO
A volunteer writes: Oh my goodness! How did Milow get so, so, soo sweet?! She can be a little timid, but gets braver each day as she adjusts to her new environment, and is hands down the most cuddly girl around. She needs some housetraining, has previously lived harmoniously with other dogs, and walks nicely on leash. She could write a book on cuddle moves, and I think has even invented some never-before-seen ones! Some of her frequently employed techniques include: approaching new people with a low wiggly body and flopping over to show her belly (she seems very submissive, but also loves belly rubs!), very softly propping her paws up and making even softer eye contact, being able to fit on any lap (anywhere!), proving that there is no limit to how close she can snuggle, and plopping all of the weight of her head on my hand as I pet her as if to trap it there forever. She has melted all of our hearts into a collective puddle — come add your’s to the mix!

Milow was a bit fearful with her body low during the tag interaction, and during the resources portion of the assessment Milow was easy to handle when engaged with the item. Milow appears to be sociable, and did not display any behaviors concerns, so the department feels he can be suitable for an “Average” adopter and we recommend a slow approach. Look: 1. Dog holds gaze with soft eyes, soft body. She allows head to be held loosely in Assessor’s cupped hands. Dog holds gaze for three full seconds. Sensitivity: 1. Dog leans into the Assessor, eyes soft, soft and loose body, open mouth. Tag: 1. Follows at end of leash, body low and a bit fearful. Squeeze 1 & 2: 1. Dog gently pulls back her paw. Toy: 1.
