A volunteer writes: “Maybe she’s born with it, maybe it’s Maybelline”, this slogan is synonymous with beauty, this name is quite fitting for Ms. Maybelline. Although she needs a bit of TLC and perhaps wasn’t well cared for in the past, she has an inner beauty and is full of love. Maybelline knows the sit command, walks well on leash, and takes treats very gently. When we took out the camera to take her picture she instinctively knew to look at the camera and even perked her cute ears up making for the perfect picture on the first try. Maybelline really enjoys walking and getting attention. She will make the perfect companion and best friend please come to SIACC and meet her.

07/14/2015 BEHAVIOR EVALUATION – EXPERIENCE
Exam Type BEHAVIOR
Maybelline came to our center after being found as a stray by a member of the public. Her Finder kept her for a week and reports she has been around Finder’s children and interacted in a playful manner. Finder also reports Maybelline will go after cats and is fearful of other dogs. Finder also reports Maybelline is not housebroken and will growl if you take away a bone or Rawhide. Maybelline pulled a bit on leash for her relief walk. She held gaze for three full seconds during Look item, tail wagging, body soft. Maybelline stood still and accepted the touch during Sensitivity item, ears back, tail wagging, soft body. She followed at the end of the leash for Tag game, body soft. Maybelline gently pulled her paw back on both Squeeze attempts, tail wagging. She calmly allowed the Food dish to be moved away, and lifted her head out of the Food bowl when assess-a-hand was applied to her cheek. Maybelline had no interest in Toy, although Finder reports when she is relaxed she enjoys playing with soft and squeaky toys. She kept a firm grip on Rawhide, body a bit stiff. Maybelline walked towards the helper dog at an appropriate pace, tail at spine level, body relaxed. Due to her potential for possessive behavior regarding bones/rawhide, the Behavior Team feels Maybelline would do best in an Experienced home with no young children that will offer positive behavior modification if any guarding behaviors manifest in the home. Look: 1. Dog holds gaze with soft eyes, soft body, tail wag. 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 wagging with relaxed body posture. Dog’s mouth is closed for at least a portion of the assessment item. Tag: 1.
