05/04/2015 BEHAVIOR EVALUATION – EXPERIENCE
Exam Type BEHAVIOR
Shera was sociable toward the handler during the assessment – soft body, low wag. She was calm and relaxed during handling. Shera was distracted and focused on objects in the room rather than the handler during the tag interaction. She ate faster, was stiff and very difficult to push out of the food bowl, but did not growl, snap or bite. Shera had minimal interest in the toy and took the rawhide away; body language was a bit stiff. Shera came to the care center as a stray and had loose body language and a wagging tail upon intake and allowed for all handling. During the assessment, Shera allowed for all handling to be completed with ease, however, she did show some potential to guard food and possibly rawhide. The Behavior Department believes Shera would do best in an experienced home with no young children that can manage and positively modify any guarding behaviors if they manifest in the home. Look: 1. Dog’s eyes are averted. Her ears are back, her tail is neutral, and she has a relaxed body posture. Dog allows head to be held loosely in Assessor’s cupped hands. Sensitivity: 1.
