Crash

Hello, my name is Crash. My animal id is #38962. I am a male brown brindle dog at the . The shelter thinks I am about 1 years 3 months 1 weeks old.

I came into the shelter as a returns on 9/7/2018.

Reserved

Someone has already placed a deposit on me. I'm no longer available.

Crash is at risk for behavior concerns, due to behaviors seen in his previous home and concerns with in shelter handling we recommend placement with a new hope partner. Crash was recently diagnosed with canine infectious respiratory disease complex which is contagious to other dogs and may require treatment.

Let's get to know each other a bit more...

A volunteer writes: Crash! Boom! Bang! That's the sound of you falling head-over-heels for Crash, the most handsome, huggable guy you never knew your life was missing! I like my dogs big, boisterous and a little bossy, and Crash is all those things, but he's also an affectionate snuggler, a sweet kisser and a wonderful friend to other pups in playgroup, too. At the top of his list of not-so-secret joys are toys and balls of all kinds, and he'll sit politely (for a moment at least) to wait for my throw, then dash off, gently scoop up his prize and jog back for another round, smiling all the while. Crash never grabs or guards and is always happy to share if it means the fun and games will continue, and he's so soft and easy to handle, lightly munching away from my hand as I hold a toy for him or quietly settling across my lap for an extended back massage and chew session. He seems very house trained, but his enthusiasm for exploration and meeting new friends does result in some hard pulling on leash. A harness and a little training could teach this smart cookie how to slow his roll, or if you prefer, you can learn to jog! Crash is a lotta dog to love and he's got so much love to give to an active, experienced family. Ask to meet him at our Manhattan Care Center and get ready to fall in love.

Details on my behavior are...

Behavior Condition: 3. Yellow

Date of intake:: 9/7/2018

Spay/Neuter status:: No

Means of surrender (length of time in previous home):: Owner Surrender (In home for one week)

Bite history:: Yes, Crash bit a person and a dog while he was being walked. He lunged towards a child and the owner's girlfriend got in between the Crash and the child and she was bitten on the hand, breaking skin. He bit a dog that he was meeting while on leash, breaking skin on the dog.

Date of assessment:: 8/22/2018

Look:: 2. Dog pulls out of Assessor's hands each time without settling during three repetitions.

Sensitivity:: 1. Dog leans into the Assessor, eyes soft or squinty, soft and loose body, open mouth.

Tag:: 2. Dog is not fearful, but is unresponsive when touched. Approaches the Assessor when the game ends (may need coaxing to approach). Dog is focused on stimuli other than the Assessor.

Paw squeeze 1:: 2. Dog gently places open mouth over the Assessor's hand without applying pressure.

Paw squeeze 2:: 2. Dog gently places open mouth over the Assessor's hand without applying pressure.

Flank squeeze 1:: Item not conducted

Flank squeeze 2:: Item not conducted

Toy:: 1. Dog settles close, keeps a firm grip and is loose and wiggly. Dog does not place his/her body between you and the toy.

Summary:: Crash quickly approached the assessor with a soft body and jumped up in a social manner. He jumped up several times during the assessment and was a bit mouthy, applying light pressure. He allowed all handling.

Summary:: Crash may succeed best with slow introductions to other playful dogs.

Summary (1):: 8/22: When introduced off leash to the female greeter dog, Crash greets politely, initially is weary of play. Once more acclimated, Crash engages in bouts of play.

Summary (2):: 8/23: Crash engages in bouts of running play with a female dog.

Summary (3):: 8/24-8/27: Crash engages in running, bouncy play with male and female dogs.

ENERGY LEVEL:: We have no history on Crash so we cannot be certain of his behavior in a home environment. However, he is a young, enthusiastic, social dog who will need daily mental and physical activity to keep him engaged and exercised. We recommend long-lasting chews, food puzzles, and hide-and-seek games, in additional to physical exercise, to positively direct his energy and enthusiasm.

IN SHELTER OBSERVATIONS:: In the care center Crash displays on leash reactivity, pulling towards dogs and people he sees on walks. Prior to his adoption he had not displayed concerning levels of reactivity (hard barking, lunging etc.) but this was reported in the home environment. Since returning he has displayed high levels of reactivity in kennel as well (hard barking, jumping on the fence etc.). One on one with handlers outside Crash is highly social, seeking attention and engaging in play with toy items. He is a high energy dog and benefits from one on one time off leash in the yard with toys and humans.

BEHAVIOR DETERMINATION:: NEW HOPE ONLY

Behavior Asilomar: TM - Treatable-Manageable

Recommendations:: No children (under 13),Place with a New Hope partner

Recommendations comments:: No children: Due to the reactivity Crash showed on leash towards a child, we recommend an adult only home. Place with a New Hope partner: Due to Crash's bite history, the behavior department recommends Crash be placed with a New Hope placement partner who is able to provide an experienced adult-only foster home. A period of decompression is recommended to allow Crash to acclimate comfortably to his new environment; force-free, reward based training only is advised when introducing Crash to new and unfamiliar situations. Consultation with a professional trainer/behaviorist is highly recommended for guidance to safely manage/modify any behavior Crash presents with outside of the care centers.

Potential challenges: : Basic manners/poor impulse control,Mouthiness/poor bite inhibition,On-leash reactivity/barrier frustration

Potential challenges comments:: Basic manners/poor impulse control: Crash jumps up on people a lot in a social manner. It is recommended that default behaviors such as "Leave it", "Sit/Stay", "Down" are reinforced to substitute any frustration and teach him to control his impulses instead of simply reacting; proper management is also advised. Force-free, reward based training only is recommended. Mouthiness/poor bite inhibition: Crash has shown some mouthiness in the care center. Little pressure is applied, but this is a behavior that should be extinguished through training alternate behaviors and lack of reward (ex. walking away whenever Crash's teeth make contact with skin). On-leash reactivity/barrier frustration: Crash has been reported to react to people on leash, having lunged at a child, resulting in the owner getting bitten when she got in between. Crash may need positive reinforcement, reward based training to teach him to look at you rather than other dogs.  We recommend a front clip harness or head halter to help manage this behavior. We also recommend conditioning Crash to wearing a basket muzzle so he can wear a muzzle when out in public.
