She sought affection from the runner as he easily clasped the collar around her neck. She entered the play yard timidly, with a low body and tucked tail. She was approached by a male boxer mix and exchanged timid greetings with him. She ran off to sit on a bench away from the other dogs. Any dogs that approached her, she would exchange timid greetings with. She would approach the handlers by jumping up on them to solicit affection. She began to relax as she roamed the yard and explored. She started to exchange softer greetings and was tolerant of dogs coming up to sniff her.
