Eval Comments:
\"The behaviors described today reflect the dog's responses in an Animal Care Center environment and during assessment. A dog's behavior in an Animal Care Center may differ significantly from howthey behave in a home. Stress, confinement, and unfamiliar surroundings can cause dogs to act out or suppress behaviors that may emerge later. A dog's behaviormay change based on surroundings, training, medical, socialization, and life experiences.\"
He walked to the play yard with a moderate pull on the leash. He was easily collared by the runner in the catch pen. He began to growl at the dogs through the fence. The dogs were backed away from the fence and he entered the play yard with soft body language. He was approached by a male Labrador. When the other dog was still six feet away, he became tense with a forward body posture, hacklesraised, straight out stiff tal and froze with hard eyes focused on the other dog. He then began to bark and growl. Ahandler broke his focus using a spray bottle and he walked away. He began to roam the yard to himself and explore. He was approached by a female husky that greeted him softly. He immediately became tense with a forward body posture and began to low growl. Ahandler broke his focus using a spray bottle and he was removed from the yard at this time. Due to his behavior toward the other dogs in the yard, he will be designated as no other dogs required.
