STAFF OBSERVATIONS
09/15/26 Dog pursued ACO upon arrival growling. Dog tried to retreat but was corned. Dog had dilated eyes and pin backed ears. Dog was very tense but able to put catch ole on dog. Dog is seen on video going into a secure yard and attacking another dog causing a small laceration and punctures.
09/22/26 Dog is NOD due to notes from field. Dog is stiff in kennel with ears pinned back and will not approach handler.
09/23/26 10:04 Took dog out to play yard. Dog does well on leash. Once in play yard, dog became loose and liked to explore surroundings. Dog started to solicit attention from handler when handler coaxed dog. When throwing the ball in the play yard dog would chase and start chewing, no guarding when the handler approached to remove the ball. No problems re-kenneling. Currently kenneled alone.
