A volunteer writes:  Who’s ready for a sleek, stunning, friendly, easy to be with pup? Mature and well behaved beyond his age, I met Bania while he was hooked up to an IV in the vet’s office as he had been lethargic and vomiting with some undiagnosed ailment. His person tells us that he may have eaten something “unauthorized”, and now that it’s passing through him he’s getting better. He was amazingly calm and easy as the vet unhooked his IV so that I could take him out, and he went potty as soon as we were out the door. A short walk to demonstrate his lovely leash manners, and then wiggly snuggles with people who wanted to meet him. As other dogs pass he ignores them, looking instead at the treat in my hand for which he sits. Running my hands over his fur is like touching the softest velvet. His lab like ears frame his soft grey eyes which make sweet eye contact as he poses for some pictures. He’s a hit with everyone he meets as his soft personality and easy going nature make him an easy companion. When it was time to go back inside he hopped into his kennel without issue, turned and gave me a kiss. Stunning inside and out does not begin to describe this sweet puppy….come meet him and see for yourself.

This dog was brought in by the son of the owner. The owner is currently out of the country. The son had limited information on the dog. The dog has had some medical issues over the past 2 weeks. The dog has been seen by a vet but there was no official diagnosis given.

Behavior During Intake: The dog was a little lethargic during intake. He was friendly but did not have a lot of energy. The dog had some spotty bleeding during intake. He allowed me to photograph him as well as put a collar on him.

Behavior:

Bania walks calmly on leash. He was calm and relaxed during handling. Bania was calm and relaxed when playing tag with assessor. He did not resist being handled while eating, and was easily pushed out of the food bowl.  Bania was not interested in toys but took the rawhide away with a soft body language. He was relaxed when approaching a friendly dog, but was not playful.

Bania did not show any concern during the behavior assessment. The behavior department feels that he can go to an Average home.

Look: 1. Dog holds gaze with soft eyes, soft body. He allows head to be held loosely in Assessor’s cupped hands. Dog holds gaze for three full seconds.

Sensitivity: 1. Dog stands still and accepts the touch, his eyes are averted, and his tail is in neutral position with relaxed body posture.

Tag: 1. Follows at end of leash, body soft, wagging tail, open mouth.

Squeeze 1: 1. Dog does not respond at all for three seconds.

Squeeze 2: 1. Dog does not respond at all for three seconds.

Food: 1. Dog lifts head and ceases eating when you reach to pull the bowl away

Toy: 1. No interest.

Rawhide: 1. Dog settles close, keeps a firm grip and is loose and wiggly. He does not place his body between you and the rawhide.

Dog – dog: 1. Dog approaches the helper, soft body, tail neutral, but not playful.
