🐾 BEHAVIOR NOTES:

Kane was initially extremely scared, trembling with a tucked tail and worried eyes. But gentle baby talk helps him relax, and despite his fear, staff have repeatedly been able to leash him without difficulty.

He consistently walks on a loose leash, takes treats and has shown wonderful progress. After spending time outside, staff have even seen his frightened body transform into a wiggly body with a high-wagging tail.

By 9/24, Kane was waiting at the front of his kennel with a neutral body. Although he still flinches when startled, he walked nicely, accepted petting, relaxed with his handler and returned to his kennel for treats. He was also quiet throughout the morning.
