11/15/2015 WEB MEMO
A volunteer writes: Some dogs stand out by their beauty or their behavior, others because we just fall in love with them and we can not really explain why. Lucky, a middle age Lab/Shepie falls into the second category. He is cute, and despite his white muzzle and eyebrows, his cloudy eyes, looks quite dandy. He wears a scarf or a tie very handsomely and I can really call him a gentleman. Lucky can usually be found laying peacefully at his door, hugging tenderly his blanket and waiting for an owner who never came back for him. He seems so sad, lost but keeps afloat despite all those days spent in a kennel at the care center. We do not know much about Lucky. Is Lucky even his real name? He bit knowingly or unintentionally his master who got into an argument with another person..Who knows? May be that person was dear to Lucky and he wanted to stop the fight. My own and perfect Pug bit my husband’s big toe as he was having a pillow fight with one of our children. She will hear about that bad deed until her last breath. We can only speculate, of course. I have been talking and feeding Lucky since his first day at the care center. I do feel guilty about it as I always reserve for him my best treats. He is my very special pooch… I can say that we are friends. I love his serious and stoic look and I so would love to get, one day, a smile. That will only happen if Lucky really gets lucky and his chance to have a home to call his own and a master who will truly love, care for, stand by and respect him. Lucky is a good walker and is very much house trained. He sits on command and for food, of course. He enjoys caresses and to just sit calmly at my feet or by my side like he was my own and loyal dog. Lucky and I are dreaming of a better life for him. He is a nice dog, still up and about, loving, and who would make a very faithful and wonderful friend to a mature owner. Lucky is at the Manhattan Care Center, wishing upon a star.
10/29/2015 BEHAVIOR EVALUATION – EXPNOCHILD
Exam Type BEHAVIOR
Lucky came to us by way of NYPD for biting the owner. We do not have enough of information of what might have caused Lucky to bite owner or what triggered this reaction. Lucky walked well on the leash when taken for a walk before his assessment but constantly solicited attention from the handler. He was very interested in interacting with the assessor when entering the behavior room with soft body language. He allowed the assessor to conduct all tactile assessment items while maintaining soft body language. He was distracted and unresponsive toward the handler during the tag interaction. Lucky showed no interest in the food or rawhide items, and only displayed minimal interest in the toy on this portion of the assessment. When on an on leash dog interaction Lucky did not approach the helper dog and simply turned his body toward the side. The behavior department believes that Lucky and go to and experienced home with no children. 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.
