12/15/2015 BEHAVIOR EVALUATION – EXPERIENCE
Exam Type BEHAVIOR
Hazel came to us as an owner surrender on 12/11/15. It was reported by the owner that Hazel is playful, gentle and respectful when playing with children. Hazel is reported to show destructive behavior in the home, such as chewing shoes, and sometimes the walls. We are unaware of what, if any, attempts were made to remedy this behavior but we suggest to future adopters that Hazel will need to be provided with physical and mental stimulation and with a variety of appropriate and engaging chew toys so Hazel can engage in necessary chewing behavior without damage to human objects. She was very interested in interacting with assessor when entering the behavior room. She allowed the assessor to conduct all tactile assessment items while maintaining very soft body language. She showed no interest in the toy on this portion of the assessment. The behavior department believes that Hazel would do best with and experienced adopter that can provide any behavior modification necessary. Look: 1. Dog holds gaze with soft eyes, soft body. She allows head to be held loosely in Assessor’s cupped hands. Dog holds gaze for three full seconds. Sensitivity: 1. Dog stands still and accepts the touch, her eyes are averted, and her 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. Dog assumes play position and joins the game. Or dog indicates play with huffing, soft ‘popping’ of the body, etc. Dog might jump on Assessor once play begins. Squeeze 1: 1. Dog gently pulls back her paw. Squeeze 2: 1.
