08/14/16 11:37 Rocky is a 7 year old neutered Long-Hair Chihuahua who was brought in due to family problems. Rocky does not have any health issues as per the owner and is up to date on vaccinations. Around strangers Rocky will bark at first but will setlle after being acknowledged and petted as the person enters the home. Rocky has lived with children ranging from 4-15 years old and is described as respectful, relaxed and playful but can become sexually stimulated during play from time to time. He is gentle with adults and can usually be found by your feet as you walk through the house doing things. He has not lived in a house with other animals so his behavior around them is not well known, when out for a walk he will generally bark at passing dogs but will settle with minor correction by the person walking him. Rocky is mainly kept indoors and is trained to go to the bathroom on pads provided inside the house, if left for an extended period of time he may have an accident here to there. During storms and fireworks his behavior is believed to be ok but cant be 100% positive. Rocky is described as a friendly, affectionate and palyful dog who can be shy at first when meeting new people. He has a medium activity level and will run around the house when the family enters after a long time away and will eventually settle to laying on the carpet under a fan. He enjoys stuffed animals and balls and can be found usually throwing them in the air to chase them to chasing them when a human throws them. He is described as well behaved when walking on a leash and may pull lightly but will not tug or pull hard on the leash.

08/23/2016 BEHAVIOR EVALUATION – NH ONLY
Exam Type BEHAVIOR
Rocky came into our center as an owner surrender citing landlord issues. It is reported Rocky has lived with children ranging from 4-15 years old and is described as respectful, relaxed and playful. Behavior around cats is unknown. Rocky is reportedly housetrained to use wee wee pads indoors. Rocky is described as a friendly, affectionate and playful dog who can be shy at first when meeting new people. Rocky was very uncomfortable upon intake and during his initial medical exam, attempting to bite. He bucked on the leash during his relief walk, but once inside the SAFER assessment area calmed down and allowed collaring/leashing. Rocky was stiff and fearful, trembling. When assessor attempted to position for Look item, Rocky crinkled his muzzle and slowly tried to bite (lightly). Due to this, the remaining tactile portions of the assessment were skipped. He showed no interest in Toy, though this may be due to environment as owner reports he enjoys stuffed animals and balls and can be found usually throwing them in the air to chase them or chasing them when a human throws them. Rocky does not approach the helper dog. Rocky is very fractious in his kennel, crouched in a corner and hesitant to allow leashing. Once leashed he jumps out when coaxed. Outside in the yard, Rocky explores and approaches when called. Once comfortable, allows petting all over. Rocky must be placed with a New Hope partner. He would do best with a very slow approach/slow introduction, as well as initially going home to a calm, quiet, structured environment so he can relax and warm up at his own pace. Look: 5. Dog crinkles muzzle, bares teeth, tries to bite (lightly/slowly). Toy 1: No interest. Dog-dog: 2. Dog does not approach the helper dog.
