09/18/2017 PET PROFILE MEMO
09/18/17 09:32 Zeus is a young adult male medium sized dog. He was found tethered in a park and brought to ACC by police. Police report that he was friendly with his finder and with police. They fed him bread. He rode to ACC in a crate and cried and scratched at the crate. Zeus was tense in the lobby. He remained tense with wide eyes but was tolerant while I put a rope leash on him and removed his collar and chain. He tolerated petting. He approached and sniffed me but did not take treats. He did not react when I exited and re-entered the room. When a new person entered the room, he lunged and growled at them. I walked him out of the room to another new person and handed the leash to him. He was tense and after a few seconds, began growling and lunging at him too. Once they began walking, he walked with him quietly, stiff with a tucked tail. He walked into his kennel on his own.

09/20/2017 BEHAVIOR EVALUATION – NH ONLY
Exam Type BEHAVIOR
KNOWN HISTORY: None Date of intake 9/18/2017 Unaltered male, stray SAFER ASSESSMENT: Date of assessment 9/20/2017 Toy: 1.: 4 Dog growls, barks, and bares teeth Summary: Zeus became very uncomfortable in the assessment room, hard barking and quickly moving forward. Out of concern for his stress levels, we feel Zeus is not a candidate for the handling portion of the assessment at this time. INTAKE BEHAVIOR Date of intake 9/18/2017 During intake, Zeus was tense and allowed minimal handling, at times growling and pulling forward toward new people. MEDICAL BEHAVIOR: Date of initial 9/18/2017 During his initial medical exam, Zeus allowed handling. ENERGY LEVEL: We have no history on Zeus so we cannot be certain of his behavior in a home environment. In the care center, Zeus displays a medium level of energy. He may benefit from daily mental and physical activity to keep him engaged and exercised. RECOMMENDATIONS: New Hope _X_ No children under 13 – Due to Zeus’ discomfort with new people and novel stimuli, we recommend an adult only home at this time. _X_Place with a New Hope partner – Zeus allows minimal handling here at the care center. We recommend placement with a New Hope partner that can re-evaluate behavior once he is settled into a home environment.
