🐾BEHAVIOR NOTES:

Blue is struggling with overstimulation around other dogs and the shelter environment. He pulls toward other dogs and has displayed fixation, barking and growling during some encounters.

But Blue's notes also show another side of him with people. Staff describe a wiggly, affectionate boy with a wagging tail and soft smile who leans into pets and waits at his kennel door for interaction. He is generally easy to leash and has shown that he can settle and walk more loosely with redirection.

On 9/17, Blue was quiet in his kennel with a relaxed body and wagging tail as people walked past.
