11/27/2015 WEB MEMO
A volunteer writes: Eli is a great looking young dog left with us as his owner had no time for a pet anymore. Labrador Retrievers are lively, energetic and enthusiastic in their early years and “calm down ” quite a bit as time goes by. Eli is in his prime and quite playful. He likes to jump and run and needs a human equally liking and willing to jog and play… and believe me, there are a lot of Labradors lovers around us. Eli is a very sociable and friendly pup. He is so eager to please, sits beautifully on command even if treats are not involved, comes when called, does not mind to be outfitted with a scarf and sits on the lap for kisses. He zigzags a little in the street and does his business in one stop. He does not respond when a dog is showing his dislike toward us. He is quite playful and enjoys himself in playgroups with other pooches. Eli gets excited with the ball or treats or just when I call him. He jumps at me to show his happiness to be in company. He will need some training to curb his enthusiasm, nothing that a loving and sensible owner can not handle. Eli is already neutered, house trained, crate trained, lived with cats, knows a number of commands and is said to be good with kids and strangers. He seems to have been well cared for, although he could weigh a little bit more. Eli is a gorgeous young prince, clad in a shiny ebony coat, trim, elegant, super friendly and playful, waiting at the Manhattan Care Center to start his life again as your forever best friend.
11/30/2015 BEHAVIOR EVALUATION – EXPERIENCE
Exam Type BEHAVIOR
Eli came in as an owner surrender. It is reported he lived with adults, teenagers, children, and seniors as well as cats, playful with all. Owner reports Eli knows the commands sit, stay, settle to calm down, and ‘uh uh’ to stop when misbehaving. Owner states Elie is housebroken and crate trained. It is reported he may chew on furniture. He pulled on leash during his relief walk. He barked and whined in between SAFER assessment items while in the room. Eli held gaze for three full seconds during Look item, slow wag, body relaxed. He displayed alot of energy and movement during Sensitivity item, body soft, slow wagging tail, jumping up in between attempts. Eli jumped and played along during Tag, tail wagging, settled easily at end of game but began to whine. He did not pull his paw back on both Squeeze attempts, sniffing assessor’s hand. Eli playfully engaged with Toy, taking it away with loose body. When off leash with other dogs, Eli engages in rough, running play with other dogs. He is bouncy and mouthy when interacting with a boisterous female. The Behavior Team feels Eli would do best with an Experienced adopter. He may benefit from obedience classes to learn leash manners and focus. Eli may benefit from daily mental and physical stimulation in the forms of daily walks, runs, exercise, play, as well as durable toys such as Kongs and Nylabones to positively direct his energy and enthusiasm. His new adopters should continue with crating him when home alone to avoid any continued chewing on furniture. 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: 2. Dog displays high energy and movement, but it is directed toward getting closer to the Assessor. His body is soft, likely panting, may jump up between attempts to lick Assessor. Tag: 1.
