Summary (1): According to Molly’s previous owner, Molly did not socialize with other dogs while in their care.Here at the Care Centers, Molly is social and playful with novel dogs. She participates in both bouncy and running/chase play with dogs that match her energy and offers appropriate corrections to sexually motivated males. When introduced to a high energy player, Molly uses her body to slow down him down. She is eventually able to engage in play with him after shaking off. Molly interacts with calm downs, and mostly explores the yard when paired with them.

All introductions should be done slowly and under supervision.
