04/19/2015 WEB MEMO
A volunteer writes: I love and admire a dog who keeps her spirit despite dismal circumstances. Stony is that kind of pooch. She is with us as her owner became incapacitated, unable to take care of a pet. I have no doubt that Stony got a lot of love and wonderful care in her former home. She is a chunky mama, true, but she is spayed, outstandingly groomed and mostly sociable, playful and very affectionate. She is one spunky female…I never would have guessed until she picked a ball that did to belong to her in our pen..She brought it to me…Let’s play!!!! I am not a couch potato. I have quiet times and I have fun times….So, we played and played and played, until she got tired and retired on the bench, spread her body and rested, tail gently wagging under my caresses. Stony and I had such a great time ! She needs to be discovered. A look at her kennel will not tell you anything. Ask to meet her, interact with her and you will see what I am talking about. I forgot to say the obvious..Stony aced her behavioral evaluation, walks like a dream on the leash and seems house trained….Please, do come and meet Stony at the Manhattan Care Center.

A Volunteer Wrote: I am not the volunteer who coos “fatty fats” to this delightful, delicious, round peach of a girl–but it’s possible I started singing it to her after I heard it. You’ve got to sing around Stony, if only from delight that such a dog exists. She loves playing with a ball, other dogs, and all people…even people who call her “fatty fats,” because she’s that cool. Stony is a perfect dog who additionally offers the opportunity to show off using “porcine” in sentences.

04/16/2015 BEHAVIOR EVALUATION – AVERAGE
Exam Type BEHAVIOR
Stony pulls on the leash but was sociable toward the handler during the assessment – soft body, low wag. She allowed for all tactical handling items to be completed without difficulty. During Tag, she engages in play, loose body, wags tail, mouth is open, she grabs the leash very lightly but releases once the game ends and does not tug. Stony had no interest in food but engaged playfully with the toy, she kept a firm grip but her body remained loose and wiggly. Stony was relinquished to the care center by her owner who could no longer care for her. Stony lived with 3 young children who she was relaxed around and tolerant of and would sometimes engage in play it is gentle. The previous owner stated that she is house trained and well behaved when left loose in the house when no one is home. Stony did not show any concerns during the assessment and the Behavior Department believes she can go to an average home. Look: 2.
