SAFER: EXPERIENCED HOME
Helper Dog:A1024957
During intake Hansel was reported to be very social and appeared interested in greeting everyone that approached him. He licked hands and wagged his tail the entire time, and allowed all handling and collaring by an admissions counselor. During SAFER Hansel had a loose body posture, was not attention seeking and appeared to be more interested in sniffing and marking the room. He was a bit tense during some of the handling, but allowed the assessor to conduct each item without issue, and he was relaxed during the tag interaction. Hansel did become a bit stiff during the food item, but after a bit of pressure was applied to his cheek, Hansel lifted his head from the food bowl. He was not interested in the toys or rawhide items, and during the dog-dog interaction, Hansel rushed in towards the helper dog with stiff body language.
Look: 2. Dog pulls out of Assessor’s hands each time without settling during three repetitions.
Sensitivity: 2. Dog stands still and accepts the touch, his eyes are averted, his tail is down, body stiff, mouth closed, lip long, ears back, lip licks.
