06/07/2016 PET PROFILE MEMO
6/7/16 18:26 Basic information: Scotty is a roughly 3 yr. old Pekingese mix. The Owner has owned Scotty for over 4 months. The owner surrendered Scotty because Scotty’s behavior around child and stranger has become unpredictable (Bites family members and strangers when they approach him or try to pet him Scotty has not been taken to a vet in over a year. Socialization: Around strangers Scotty is very fearful and may bark and snap at the person if they come to close. Scotty has lived with children between the ages of 8 and 10 years old and he prefers not to interact with them and will bite if they scare him or play to rough. Scotty has bitten one of the owners children on 6/6/16 (the child was hitting Scotty on the head with a pillow trying to play). Behavior: The owner stats that Scotty does not like to be bothered when is eating or playing with toys (he might snap at the hand of the person touching his food or toys) or when someone disturb him while he is sleeping. Scotty has never been brushed, given bathes or had his nails trimmed. When an unfamiliar person or animal approaches a family member or his home he barks growls and lunges at them. The owner does not know how Scotty is around loud noises such as storms or fireworks. For a new family to know: The owner describes Scotty as shy and fearful with a medium activity level. His favorite activity is to play fetch with his owner. In the home Scotty tends to follow the owner around the house but prefers to keep to himself. Scotty sleeps in the floor of the bedroom on a dog bed. Scotty was fed name brand dry dog food three times a day. He is house trained and has never had an accident in the home, when outside he goes to the bathroom on or around trees and grass. For exercise Scotty is used to brisk walks on the leash and twice a day and does not pull on the leash unless excited or approached by a stranger.

Exam Type BEHAVIOR
Scotty walks calmly on leash. He was seeking for attention for the handler but once he handler tries to collar him Scotty became stiff, freezes and wrinkles his muzzle to expose his front teeth. The behavior team decided to skip the handling part of the assessment for safety reasons. During the resources Scotty was not interested in toys. He does not approach other dog, attempts to exit. Scotty was surrender to us. According to his previous owner he is shy and fearful with a medium activity level. Around strangers Scotty is very fearful and may bark and snap at the person if they come to close. Scotty has lived with children between the ages of 8 and 10 years old and he prefers not to interact with them and will bite if they scare him or play to rough. The owner stats that Scotty does not like to be bothered when is eating or playing with toys (he might snap at the hand of the person touching his food or toys”. The behavior department feels that he would do best if placed with a New Hope partner who can follow up on this behavior in a more stable environment and can provide any necessary behavior modification before placement into a permanent home. Toy 1: No interest. Dog-dog: 2. Dog does not approach the helper dog. Turns body to side in relation to other dog, or exits. Helper: A1077276
