Gary is a 3-year-old, white and brown brindle American Bulldog and Boxer mix who was found to be friendly, energetic, and people-oriented in his behavior assessment. He pulls lightly on leash but is polite with strangers, greeting them with some jumping but not knocking people over. Gary is moderately calm in his cage, rarely barks, and is attentive when being petted. While food motivated, he was hesitant to move his food bowl when touched. The assessment recommends Gary for training as he loves treats and seems happy-go-lucky.

- 1. Behavior Assessment Findings Record ID: 202189 Kalamazoo County Animal Services Species: Dog Name: Gary Gender: Male Breed: American Bulldog and Boxer Color: White/Brown Brindle Pattern: Altered: No Age: 3 years, 1 month Shelter Area: Dogs - Large Pen: 102 Primary ID: Intake ID: 81859 Date: Tuesday, September 10, 2013 Conclusion:Behavior 1 Behavior on Leash Pulls But not hard, which was a bit surprising due to his size. Behavior With Strangers Polite-Friendly He is a wee bit enthusiastic, as in light jumping, but he doesn't try to topple you over like some excited greeters. Cage Behavior - Activity Calm Exit Moderately calm, settles quickly in cage Cage Behavior - Cleanliness Never a mess (easy to train) Cage Behavior - Noise Level Rarely barks (may be a good choice for apartment dwellers/working homes) Cage Behavior-Strangers Front of cage, soliciting Food Bowl Passed With Reservation He let me move the bowl, but when the assist-a-hand touched his face to move it out, he dug into the food more and wouldn't budge. Due to his generally friendly demeanor and the fact that he neither growled nor snapped at the hand, I did not fail him on this test, but potential owners may want to watch this behavior. General Observations Active He is neither totally calm nor overly energetic. Attentive He loves being pet! Confident Mouthy He is a little snappy at treats. He did not get my fingers at all, but this will still be something to work on. People-Centered He loves people! A wiggle butt. :) Playful Responds For treats, definitely. Secure House Broken Unknown No mess in cage, only #1 outside. Page 1 of 2Copyright ?2005 Multiple Options, Inc. Printed: 10/3/2013 10:27:45 AM
