Playgroup notes:
'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 behavior may change based on surroundings, training, medical, socialization, and life experiences.'
He walked with no pull on the leash to the catch pen. The runner easily clasped the collar around his neck. He entered the play yard with a soft body and a neutral tail. He was approached by a male shepherd mix and exchanged a tense greeting with him. He had his hackles up and a high, stiff tail. A female collie mix approached him. He was tense but tolerant with her. He began to relax as he roamed and explored the yard. The male shepherd approached him and exchanged a softer greeting. When the shepherd lingered in his face, he would turn his head away. The female collie mix tried to entice play by offering him multiple play bows. He seemed interested but did not break into play. He would slowly approach handlers in the yard to solicit affection. He was tolerant of dogs coming up to sniff him. He was walked out of the yard for a handling assessment. Zae is tolerant of other dogs and has no play style at this time.
