04/23/2015 PET PROFILE MEMO
04/23/15 20:31 Frosty was adopted from a shelter about 2 days ago, but he is currently about 4 years old. He bit his previous owner and was very protective of owner’s girlfriend. Because owner did not have time or money for training, owner could no longer keep him. Owner stated that when he wasn’t near his girlfriend that Frosty was a great dog. He was very friendly toward everyone and was very calm. During the intake he was very relaxed. He had a soft body and soft eyes and he allowed petting and handling, (positive scan), and he showed no signs of aggression. He took treats very gently from my hand.

04/18/2015 WEB MEMO
A volunteer writes: Looking up at me with big eyes and a wagging tail, I knew Frosty would be my next walk. Gorgeous with long legs, adorable spotted fold over ears and a stocky body Frosty is trying to figure out why his life has changed. Surrendered by his family as they say he can play too rough with people as well as other dogs, we’re told that he’s housetrained, knows ‘sit’, ‘lie down’ and ‘give paw’. He walked well on the leash as we headed to the park, and of course, confirmed his owner’s comments about being housetrained by going as soon as we were out the door. Easy going amidst the craziness in the park on a warm spring day, he wasn’t fazed by kids on bikes, skateboards or scooters, loud trucks, cars honking, or other sudden noises. In the back yard he comes when I call him, enjoys being pet joining me on the bench for some hug time. Quiet and low key, he takes treats gently, and spits them out so gently that I didn’t even know he did until I saw them on the ground. I guess he didn’t like my treats, but was too polite to refuse! Frosty seems to like dogs of all size, giving an easy greeting to all we passed on our walk. Frosty is looking for a new person or family to love and is hoping you’ll ask to meet him today.

04/16/2015 BEHAVIOR EVALUATION – EXPERIENCE
Exam Type BEHAVIOR
Frosty came to our center as an owner surrender citing rough play with owner’s young children. It is reported that Frosty lived with adults, teenagers, and younger children. He came out of his kennel easily and walked nicely on his relief walk and into the SAFER assessment room. Frosty held gaze in assessor’s cupped hands for three full seconds. He was not comfortable with Sensitivity item, and moved his body away. During Tag, Frosty was unresponsive to the assessor, being focused on other stimuli in the room. He followed the dish and allowed his face to be moved out during Food item with no aggressive behaviors. Frosty showed no interest in toys or rawhide. He approached helper dog with neutral tail and soft body. Frosty was resistant to going back into his kennel at the end of the assessment and needed some coaxing. Due to owner’s report regarding rough play with young children, the Behavior Team feels Frosty would do best in an Experienced home with no young children, and any older children should have an in-depth interaction beforehand. 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: 3.
