07/04/2015 WEB MEMO
A volunteer writes: Staff positively swoons when they see Aiyanna coming, and the shelter manager is so in love with this little pocket pittie, that after hours Aiyanna is welcomed off leash to explore the lobby area. It must be love! As I left the building with Aiyanna the manager was just coming in and Aiyanna started wagging her tail and play bowed to her – smart girl, she knows who her friends are! Too cute! A tiny little girl in her nicely groomed tan coat, her eyes look like she’s wearing makeup as they survey the area. Aiyanna went potty as soon as we were out the door so is likely housetrained and is a gem on the leash making for a lovely walk to the park. In a pen she explores the area, turns her nose up at my treats (I guess she’s used to better), and then waits quietly for me when I left to photograph a dog in another pen. In play group she’s a gentle player, greeting others and then wanders around. Gentle, easy, calm Aiyanna (which means ‘forever flowering’) is hoping to blossom in your home. Stop by to meet her today.

Exam Type BEHAVIOR
Aiyanna came to our center when a member of the public found her tied to a fence. She was friendly and allowed all handling at intake, taking treats gently from admissions counselor’s hand. Aiyanna walked nicely on leash for her relief walk, no pulling, but barked at strangers she encountered in the hallway. She allowed her head to be cupped in assessor’s hands. Aiyanna stood still and accepted touch during Sensitivity item, mouth closed, body soft, lip lick. She followed at the end of the leash for Tag game, body soft, settling easily at the end. Aiyanna did not pull her paw back on both Squeeze attempts, licking her lips. She lifted her head out of the Food dish when assess-a-hand was applied to her cheek. She had no interest in Toy. Aiyanna kept a firm grip on Rawhide, taking it away, body neutral. When off leash with other dogs, Aiyanna is energetic, bouncy, and tolerant of other dogs.
