10/08/2016 PET PROFILE MEMO
10/08/16 19:34 Princess is shy around strangers but starts to warm up after a few minutes. She is relaxed around children aafter a few minutes. She has not been around other animals. Princess is house trained and does not destroy household items. If you touch or take her food or treats she will growl or bite. She is not bothered by being bathed , brushed or having her nails trimmed. She has a high level of activity at home and follows her owner around the house. She is well bejaved when left alone and knows the command come. She pulls lightly on the leash and is fed dry food science diet. Princeess tries to bite councilor and does not allow councilor to touch her. Owner had to handle for intake.

10/12/2016 WEB MEMO
A volunteer writes: Princess is an adorable sight in her kennel, so girly in her pink and white polka dots outfit. She welcomes me at first with a, “What do you want from me?” “I am your new friend, sweetheart. Wanna go out, have fun, try new treats, meet people and other dogs?” Princess softens at once. I open her door and she is in my arms in no time, one needy little mouse. She feels so soft, is so relaxed tucked under my arm and loves caresses. She is so tiny and chunky too. Princess walks fast on the leash and does her business at once while on the ground. She nears other dogs uneventfully. We sit on the side walk. Princess hops on my lap for a bonding session. She is a true sweetheart. We are told that Princess is a little shy around strangers and needs time to warm up. Same with children with whom she feels relaxed after a few minutes. She would be housetrained, well behaved when alone in the house. Princess is a typical Chihuahua. You either love them or you don’t. I am part of the first group, and Princess is right up my alley. I hope that just like me, you will fall in love. Princess is at the Manhattan Care Center waiting…just for you.

PLAYGROUP: Summary MEDICAL Behavior: 10/08/16 During her initial medical examination, Princess appeared tense though tolerated all handling. ENERGY LEVEL: RECOMMENDATIONS: New Hope Only _X_No children (under 13) (See known history/potential challenges) _X_Place with a New Hope partner (Princess did display some concern during the resource portion of the assessment. Her body was stiff when approached; she then vocalized and snapped then attempted to bite the hand. Because of the severity of this behavior observed in shelter as well in a home environment, the department believes Princess would benefit best from a New Hope placement partner who can provide an experienced foster home where she is allowed decompression before any introduction to new and unfamiliar situations. Force-free, reward based training is advised.) Potential challenges: _X_Resource guarding (Princess may require positive reinforcement behavior modification to address this food guarding behavior. In addition to food behavior modification protocol we recommend teaching Princess “Drop It” and trade-up games.)
