09/08/2015 BEHAVIOR EVALUATION – AVERAGE
Exam Type BEHAVIOR
Goldie came in as a stray, so his past behaviors in a home are unknown. During SAFER Goldie came into the assessment room loose and wiggly, he was playful and friendly towards the assessor, allowed all handling items to be conducted without issue. Goldie was relaxed during the tag interaction, and during the resources portion of the assessment Goldie was easy to handle when engaged with the items. Goldie appears to be sociable, and did not display any behaviors concerns, so the department feels he can be suitable for an “Average” adopter. Look: 1. Dog’s eyes are averted. His ears are back, his tail is down, and he has a relaxed body posture. Dog allows head to be held loosely in Assessor’s cupped hands. Sensitivity: 1. Dog stands still and accepts the touch, his eyes are averted, and his tail is in neutral position with relaxed body posture. Dog’s mouth is likely closed for at least a portion of the assessment item. Tag: 1. Follows at end of leash, body soft. Squeeze 1: 1. Dog does not respond at all for three seconds. His eyes are averted and his ears are relaxed. Squeeze 2: 1. Dog does not respond at all for three seconds. His eyes are averted and his ears are relaxed. Food: 2. Dog follows the dish with his tail down, body soft. Dog lifts head after a bit of pressure from hand to cheek. Toy 1: 1. Dog settles close, keeps a firm grip and is loose and wiggly. He does not place his body between you and the toy. Rawhide: 1. Minimal interest in rawhide, dog licks, then turns away.
