Exam Type BEHAVIOR
Baby was surrendered to our center along with her mother due to previous owner’s health issues. It is reported she was born in the home and with her mother her entire life. She is reportedly shy at first but warms up quickly. Owner states Baby is wee wee pad trained and well behaved when left alone in the home. During intake Baby had a tense body and began to bark as staff approached her and her mother. She was collared by her previous owner. Baby allowed staff to pick her up to take her outside for relief walk but was nervous and would not walk. She was tense and fearful in the SAFER assessment room. Baby remained tense throughout the assessment, but allowed all handling. She allowed her head to be cupped in assessor’s hands, lip long. She stood still during Sensitivity item, body fearful, ears back, mouth closed. She did not follow at the end of the leash for Tag game, crouching at each pass and repeatedly spinning towards the hand. She moved her legs and body away during paw Squeeze, but had no response to each flank Squeeze. Baby showed minimal interest in Toy, sniffing a few times before turning away, slight lip lick.
