Sally
Hello, my name is Sally. My animal id is #11887. I am a female white dog at the Brooklyn Animal Care Center. The shelter thinks I am about 3 years old.
I came into the shelter as a aco impound on 06-Nov-2017.
Sally is at risk due to behavior shown in the care center. Although Sally is social outside with handlers and other dogs, she shows concerning kennel presence. Sally growls, bares teeth, snaps and lunges at the front of the kennel in the care center. The care center may be too stressful for her and effect the way she reacts to adopters.
My medical notes are…

Summary (1):: Sally was brought in as a stray so his behavior around other dogs is unknown. 11/07: When off leash at the Care Center, Sally initially jumps onto the male helper dog’s back, paws slaps and jumps off when slowed down by the handlers. She mostly just wanders and explores the pen for the rest of the session.

Summary:: Unknown
Date of initial:: 11/7/2017
