04/12/2015 WEB MEMO
A volunteer writes: Carlton is an unassuming hunk of a dog, seemingly solid in build and calm in appearance and demeanor. It’s easy to feel stately walking with him, with his quiet ways and steady walk – that is, until an errant squirrel appears on the path! But being the good boy he is, a gentle correction is all that’s needed and we’re back enjoying our stroll on a wonderful spring day. Although Carlton’s past is a mystery, his beautiful coat and good manners suggest that he was a well-cared for member of a family; he goes potty as soon as we’re outside and sits nicely for treats. Tap on the bench and he quietly and judiciously places his paws so as to be close by your side. What Carlton needs now is a new friend who can offer him a warm place called home. Could that be you?

Exam Type BEHAVIOR
Carlton pulls a bit on leash. he was shy but friendly during the assessment – low body, but trying to stay close. Carlton was shy during handling, but had soft body language.
