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 how they 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 was easily collared by the runner in the catch pen. He entered the play yard with soft body language. He approached a female shepherd and exchanged a soft greeting with her. He then approached a male Labrador and exchanged a soft greeting with him. He began to roam the yard and explore. He was tolerant of dogs trailing him to sniff him. He continued to roam the yard and exchange soft greetings with the other dogs. He remained social with the other dogs for the rest of his time in the yard. He did mount a couple of dogs and needed to be steered by the handlers. There were dogs playing during his time in the yard, but he did not engage in or entice any play. He would approach the handlers and seek affection. Maximus is social with the other dogs, but he displayed no play style at this time.
