Exam Type BEHAVIOR
KNOWN HISTORY: None 4/17/17 Unaltered Female, Stray SAFER ASSESSMENT: 4/19/17 Look: 2. Dog’s eyes are averted. Her body posture is a bit tense, her tail is low and not moving. She allows head to be held loosely in Assessor’s cupped hands. Sensitivity: 2. Dog stands still and accepts the touch, her eyes are averted, her tail is down, body a bit tense, mouth closed. Tag: 1. Follows at end of leash, body low, and a bit fearful. Squeeze 1: 1. Dog gently pulls back her paw. Squeeze 2: 1. Dog gently pulls back her paw. Toy: 1. Minimal interest, dog sniffs toy. Summary: Snow was a bit tense during her assessment and reluctant to walk on leash. She allowed all handling. DOG-DOG INTERACTION ASSESSMENT: Summary PLAYGROUP: 4/18: When introduced off leash to dogs in the care center Snow keeps only to herself and does not seek out approach. MEDICAL BEHAVIOR: 4/17/17 During her initial medical exam, Snow was tense. ENERGY LEVEL: We have no history on Snow so we cannot be certain of her behavior in a home environment. In the care center, she appears to have a low level of activity. RECOMMENDATIONS: Experience (suitable for an adopter with some previous dog experience, especially with behaviors outlined below) Potential challenges: _X_Fearful: Snow is a bit fearful at the care center. It is important to always go slow and give Snow the option to walk away from any social interaction. Snow should never be forced to approach anything that she is uncomfortable with or to submit to petting or handling. It should always be Snow’s choice to approach a new person or thing. Snow would do best in an initially calm and quiet home environment and should be given time to acclimate to her new surroundings.
