He was very interested in interacting with the assessor when entering the behavior room. He was very easily handled during the tactile portion of the assessment and maintained very soft body language throughout. Benji proved a bit difficult to push out of the food bowl, but had soft body language. He took the toy away from the assessor strongly, but had loose body language.
