A volunteer writes: Sprinkles: that little extra something that makes a doughnut special…and also a special little dog with the best ears! This brindled beauty can be very bashful, but she is so, so sweet! She is very responsive to baby talk and treats (she knows “sit”, takes them nicely, and isn’t picky) and seems to get a bit braver every time I see her. She pulls some on the leash, especially if there’s a scary noise to seek shelter from (I think she has Chicken Little whispering in her ear!), but is still very easy to handle and seems to have housetraining. When her nerves aren’t in the way she can be very wiggly, and I suspect she has a playful side, too! She makes soft eye contact when I pet her, has caught very brief bouts of the zoomies, and does adorable head tilts when I offer her squeaky toys. I think she’ll thrive in a home…maybe yours?! Please come see her at Brooklyn ACC and see if you’re a match!

Dog’s eyes are averted, with tail wagging and ears back. He allows head to be held loosely in Assessor’s cupped hands. Sensitivity: 1. Dog stands still and accepts the touch, his eyes are averted, and his tail is in neutral position with relaxed body posture. Dog’s mouth is closed for at least a portion of the assessment item. Tag: 1. Follows at end of leash, body soft. Squeeze 1: 1. Dog gently pulls back his paw. Squeeze 2:1. Dog gently pulls back his paw. Toy 1: No interest. Summary: Sprinkles was mellow and relaxed during the handling assessment. DOG-DOG INTERACTION ASSESSMENT: Summary PLAYGROUP: Sprinkles was surrendered as a stray so her past behavior around dogs is unknown. When off leash with dogs at the Care Center, Sprinkles initially avoids greeting the novel male dog. Once they are in the pen together, she slowly approaches his rear end to sniff him when he is not paying attention to her. She then keeps to herself as she explores the pen. When the male dog greets her face to face, she becomes nervous. She lowers her body and lip curls as she walks away. Sprinkles displays soft body language when greeting a novel female dog. She is nervous of a face to face greeting, lowered her body and pulling her ears back, but chooses to walk away. She keeps to herself for the remainder of the session, exploring the pen. MEDICAL BEHAVIOR: 1/19/17 Sprinkles tail wags, appreciates attention, allows all handling during his initial exam. ENERGY LEVEL: RECOMMENDATIONS: Average (suitable for an adopter with an average amount of dog experience)

01/20/2017 GROUP BEHAVIOR EVALUATION
Exam Type GROUP BEHAVIOR
Sprinkles was surrendered as a stray so her past behavior around dogs is unknown. 1/20: When off leash with dogs at the Care Center, Sprinkles initially avoids greeting the novel male dog. Once they are in the pen together, she slowly approaches his rear end to sniff him when he is not paying attention to her. She then keeps to herself as she explores the pen.

She is nervous of a face to face greeting, lowered her body and pulling her ears back, but chooses to walk away. She keeps to herself for the remainder of the session, exploring the pen. 1/23: Sprinkles interacted with a variety of male and female dogs today. Initially she was slightly tense and sensitive- raising her hackles and avoiding interactions- but after being introduced to several dogs, she loosened her posture. Her face and body grew softer and she initiated very brief bouts of bouncy play. 1/25-26: With a calm male dog, Sprinkles is slightly nervous. She solicits gentle play by bouncing around the other dog, but explores the pen when play is not reciprocated.
