He does not place his body between you and the toy. Summary: Tye was a bit aloof in the behavior room but approached the Assessor and Assistant when called, and allowed his head to be held gently and his body to be pet. Due to the severity of Tye’s injured leg and the effect this may be having on his responses to handling, Tye is not a good candidate for a full behavior evaluation until his medical condition is addressed. DOG-DOG INTERACTION ASSESSMENT: Summary PLAYGROUP: Tye was surrendered as a stray so his past behavior around dogs is unknown. When off leash with dogs at the Care Center, Tye displays neutral body language when greeting a novel female dog.

MEDICAL BEHAVIOR: 12/27/16: During his initial medical examination, Tye was very sensitive on the hindquarters and around the mouth, and growled and snapped when handled. During a veterinary examination the same day, Tye was described as friendly, social, and easy to examine. ENERGY LEVEL: RECOMMENDATIONS: New Hope Only _X_Place with a New Hope partner: Due to Tye’s medical condition, we are unable to perform a behavior assessment at this time.
