During Intake Rizzo greeted staff with loose wiggly body, high wagging tail and an open mouth. She allowed staff to scan (-), collar and photograph her. She enjoyed a few treats and took them gently from the staffs’ hands. She pulled on the leash while being walked to her kennel but walked right in.

11/18/2015 BEHAVIOR EVALUATION – AVERAGE
Exam Type BEHAVIOR
Rizzo pulls a bit on the leash. She was sociable toward the handler during the assessment – soft body, low wag. Rizzo was calm and relaxed during handling. She was distracted, focused on objects in the room rather than the handler during the tag test. Rizzo was not interested in toys. Rizzo did not show any concern during the behavior assessment. The behavior department feels that she can go to an Average home. Look: 2. Dog pulls out of Assessor’s hands each time without settling during three repetitions. Sensitivity: 1. Dog leans into the Assessor, eyes soft or squinty, soft and loose body Tag: 2. Dog is not fearful, but is unresponsive to the Assessor, and approaches the Assessor at the end of the game (may need coaxing to approach.) she is focused on stimuli other than the Assessor.
