About mandour: TO BE KILLED ? 5/4/2019 He was found wandering scared and alone in the streets of NY, and we have no idea how that came to be. Did his family heartlessly toss him out of their home, was he dropped off in the street out of a moving car, or did he just get out of his yard one day and lose his way? Whatever the reason, he was terrified, and was made more so by the catch pole they tossed around his neck, the noose tightening while he thrashed in pain and fear. Can we blame him for wanting to cower in the back of his kennel, unable to trust the humans who caused him so much pain? But in his eyes is a gentleness, a sweetness, that indicates what a goods soul he is. And that is the most heartbreaking thing, because given his situation, the chances he will walk out alive are slim to none. Unless you help him. As a staff member writes: ?Hey guys, my name is Mandour. Everyone says that I've got the cutest droopy face, and that they wish I could feel more comfortable in the shelter. I'm pretty scared right now, since I don't really know where I am! Right now, I feel safest in my kennel where I can take in the sights and sounds. I may succeed best with a very experienced caretaker who can help me find the support I need to feel comfortable!? If you are an experienced foster or adopter in an adult only home (no kids under age 13) and can help this poor boy live to see another day, hurry and Message our page or email us at MustLoveDogsNYC@gmail.com for assistance.

We recommend placement with a New Hope partners only who can provide necessary behavior modification (force-free, positive reinforcement-based) and re-evaluate behavior in a stable home environment before placement into a permanent home. Medically Mandour has a wound that may require some in home care. SHELTER ASSESSMENT ? DATE OF ASSESSEMENT, 4/29/2019 Summary:When approached in his kennel, Mandour retreats to the back of his kennel, growling. He is unable to be safely removed from his kennel. For this reason, he is not a good candidate for a handling assessment at this time. INTAKE BEHAVIOR - Date of intake: 4/25/2019 Summary: Broke out of carrier, growling and snapping, had to be poled MEDICAL BEHAVIOR - Date of initial: 4/27/2019 Summary: Biting cage. Sedated for exam. ENERGY LEVEL: We have no history on Mandour so we cannot be certain of his behavior in a home environment. IN SHELTER OBSERVATIONS: Mandour has displayed distance increasing behaviors while in his kennel (growling, backing away). He has yet to warm up to allow handlers to remove him from his kennel. However, he has become more comfortable engaging with handlers through the kennel doors by coming up to the door and accepting enrichment and treats. BEHAVIOR DETERMINATION:: New Hope Only Behavior Asilomar: TM - Treatable-Manageable Recommendations:: No children (under 13),Place with a New Hope partner
