10/24/2015 WEB MEMO
A volunteer writes: How not to fall in love with a little girl who aims right for your lap when you take her off the leash? Miss Shyla is just like that. Enthusiastic, super friendly, sociable and affectionate. She is still a puppy after all at 9 months of age! She is so pretty too in her shiny ebony dress. Her eyes sparkle with mischief. Her smile is radiant. She is an animated picture of youth, life and health. Shyla does not like her kennel. She was not born to be in there but to be free–to play with people and other dogs. In playgroup with her peers, she runs wildly, trying to make the most of her freedom and enjoy her new friends. Like any youngster, Shyla, whose short life story is not known, will need basic training, patience and commitment on the part of her new owners to make of her the best pet one can ever dream of. Shyla is waiting for you, is counting on you. She wants to be your best friend and your devoted student. Come soon at the Manhattan Care Center and ask for Miss Shyla.

10/07/2015 BEHAVIOR EVALUATION – EXPERIENCE
Exam Type BEHAVIOR
Flora pulls a bit on the leash. She was excited but very interested in interacting with handler during assessment – jumped up. Flora was excited during some of the handling items, but had soft body language. She was distracted, focused on objects in the room and she became mouthy (moderate) at the end of the game. Flora did not resist being handled while eating, and was easily pushed out of the food bowl. She took the toy and rawhide away but had soft body language. Flora is quick to use her mouth in play, she appears to be a high-energy dog that will likely do best with an adopter prepared to provide mental and physical stimulation and appropriate outlets for his energy. The behavior department feels that she may do best with an experienced adopter. We also recommend a home without young children; older children can be considered pending interaction. Look: 2. Dog pulls out of Assessor’s hands each time without settling during three repetitions. Sensitivity: 2. Dog displays high energy and movement, but it is directed toward getting closer to the Assessor. Her body is soft, likely panting, may jump up between attempts to lick Assessor. Tag: 2. Dog is not fearful, but is unresponsive to the Assessor, and approaches the Assessor at the end of the game (may need coaxing to approach.) She is focused on stimuli other than the Assessor. Squeeze 1: 1. Dog gently pulls back her paw. Squeeze2: 1. Dog gently pulls back her paw. Toy: 1. Dog settles close, keeps a firm grip and is loose and wiggly. She does not place his body between you and the toys. Rawhide: 1. Dog settles close, keeps a firm grip and is loose and wiggly. She does not place his body between you and the rawhide. When off leash with other dogs, Flora is social and engages in exuberant, mouthy play with males and females.
