Eval Comments: He was standing at the back of the kennel with concemed eyes and a tucked tail. He dodged the leash a few times before the
runner was able to loop leash him. Once on leash, he dashed out of the kennel and began to flail and bite at the leash. The runner was able to verbally reassure him and he began to calm down. He walked to the play yard behind the runner and required some verbal coaxing along the way. He entered the catch pen with concemed eyes and a tucked tail. He was avoidant of the play yard fence and did not greet the other dogs. He was head shy during being collared by the runner and required a go-slow approach. He entered the play yard with soft body language. He was approached by a male Pitbull, He was tolerant of him sniffing him, but had concemed eyes and did not retum the greeting. He then began to roam the yard and explore his surroundings. He was tolerant of dogs trailing him to sniff him. He was approached by a higher energy male Pitbull in a fast manner. He became wary and tried to create space away from him. When the Pitbull followed him, he gave an appropriate show of teeth warning for space. He continued to roam the yard and began to relax more. He began to exchange soft greetings with the calm dogs. He remained social with the calm dogs but remain wary of the higher energy dogs and continued to create space away from them. Rocco is social with the other dogs but has no play style at this time and does best with calm dogs.

CONFIDENCE BUILDING
Eval Comments: He was taken to the catch pen for the handling assessment after play group. He was given a moment to acclimate to his
surroundings. The handler knelt and called to him, but he did not approach. The handler slowly approached him and picked up his leash. He sat down in the comer with concemed eyes and ears back. He allowed the handler to pet his head with no reaction. When the handler checked his teeth, he tumed his head away. He allowed the handler to check his ears with no reaction. He allowed the handler to touch and lift all his paws with no reaction. He allowed the handler to touch his tail with no reaction. He was retumed to his kennel without issue. He displayed no negative or conceming behavior toward the handler during the handing but is wary with faster movements and does best with a go-slow approach. Due to needing a slower approach and some confidence building, he wil be designated as adults only recommended at this time.
