Anaconda, Beautiful, and Click: HE SHOWED ME HIS SCARS AND IN RETURN HE LET ME PRETEND THAT I HAD NONE. C2 DUTCH ID 40493, 7 YR &S & WA TING FO HATTAN A , TO BE KILLED – 9/10/2018 “He showed me his scars, and in return he let me pretend that I had none.” ― Madeline Miller, Circe He’s 7 years old, and yet his face wears the scars of a not so happy life. Dutch has been through so much, and the sadness and longing show in his incredibly beautiful eyes. The volunteers adore him, they want so much for him to feel safe, loved, cared for…..after all his travails and travels, to finally sail his tattered ship into a safe harbor. Dutch has nothing but love in his heart, and he is anxious to put the past behind him. Will you give him a future unlike anything he’s ever known? Will you give him a life filled with love, a soft bed to lay his head on, a toy to call his own? Will you give him the TLC he so desperately needs? We guarantee Dutch will pay you back 100-fold. Step up now, save his life. PRIVATE MESSAGE our page or email us at [email protected] for assistance fostering or adopting Dutch. A volunteer writes: Double your pleasure, double your fun, and make double the room in your heart for Dutch. A 7 year-old sweetheart in a honey coat with a sugary smile, and with snuggle skills that are the best of the bunch. Dutch arrived at the shelter without a back story. We can make our assumptions. Trace scrapes and bruises, new and old, and weave a story together for our boy. But our mistake would be to dwell too long on Dutch's potential past. Because this little light is all about the future. Dutch may be firmly in adulthood at 7 years-old but at times he seems more like 7 months! Wiggling his way into your lap, jumping excitedly at the sight of a ball, creeping close for honey-covered kisses. Dutch is so full of happiness, life, and joy, you all but forget those various scrapes and bruises. Dutch is an energetic and playful boy who might do best with an experienced and active family who'll always focus on his bright future and ensure it's just as happy as he is. Dutch is waiting in adoptions at Manhattan ACC. DUTCH, ID # 40493, @ 7 Yrs. Old, 41.6 lbs. Manhattan ACC, Medium Mixed Breed, Tan / White, Male I came into the shelter as a stray on 03-Sep-2018. Behavior Assessment Date of intake:: 9/3/2018 Spay/Neuter status:: No Means of surrender (length of time in previous home):: Stray Date of assessment:: 9/4/2018 Look:: 1. Dog holds gaze with soft eyes, soft body. Allows head to be held loosely in Assessor's cupped hands. Dog holds gaze for three full seconds. Sensitivity:: 1. Dog stands still and accepts the touch, eyes are averted, and tail is in neutral position with a relaxed body posture. Dog's mouth is likely closed for at least a portion of the assessment item. Tag:: 1. Dog follows at the end of the leash, body soft. Paw squeeze 1:: 1. Dog gently pulls back his/her paw. Paw squeeze 2:: 1. Dog gently pulls back his/her paw. 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:: Dutch approached the assessor with a soft body. He was social throughout the assessment, allowed all handling, and displayed no concerning behaviors. Summary:: Due to observed concerning behaviors when attempting to assess Dutch's behavior around dogs, it is believed that Dutch may succeed best as the only resident dog at this time. See below: Upon intake, Dutch was discovered to have multiple cuts and wounds. An off leash introduction was not conducted to another dog pending medical examination. When observed to greet another dog through the fence, Dutch displayed minimal interest. A realistic prop dog was walked over to assess Dutch's initial reaction. Dutch immediately rushed over to mount, then began to bite at the legs of the prop dog, remaining difficult to distract. A basket muzzle was applied to Dutch to conduct a greeting to the female helper dog. Dutch was mostly distracted by the presence of the muzzle, though at times was observed to continuously rush after the helper dog with slightly stiff body language. Due to continued distraction and pawing at the muzzle, no further conclusions were able to be drawn during the assessment. While it is strongly recommended that Dutch be the only resident dog, Dutch should be conditioned to a basket muzzle before if any attempts to further assess behavior around other dogs are conducted. The assistance of positive reinforcement based trainer or behaviorist should be consulted beforehand. Date of intake:: 9/3/2018 Summary:: Social, allowed handling Date of initial:: 9/4/2018 ENERGY LEVEL:: We have no history on Dutch 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:: Dutch consistently displays highly social behavior with his human caretakers outside of his kennel. He maintains a loose wiggly body throughout interactions and solicits attention from handlers. BEHAVIOR DETERMINATION:: EXPERIENCE (suitable for an adopter with some previous dog experience, especially with the behaviors outlined below) Behavior Asilomar: TM - Treatable-Manageable Recommendations:: Single-pet home,Recommend no dog parks Recommendations comments:: Single pet home/no dog parks: Due to observed concerning behaviors when attempting to assess Dutch's behavior around dogs, it is believed that Dutch may succeed best as the only resident dog at this time.

Being Alone, Andrew Bogut, and Animals: Scooby Friendly, fun, affectionate, playful boy. Respectful & relaxed w/adults, children & other dogs. Very housetrained, crate trained, wel behaved home alone, knows many commands! please pick me so I can live! id 37463, @ 8 Yrs Young, 81 lbs of Happy, Neutered & Waiting w/Hope, Manhattan ACC TO BE KILLED - 8/23/2018 Friendly, fun, affectionate and playful, Scooby is a good sweet boy. At the shelter he has been super social, easy in and easy out of his kennel when going on, or coming back from walks, and everyone adores him. In his former life he lived with adults, kids and another dog and was relaxed and respectful of everyone. He had a sterling resume too – house and crate trained, well behaved home alone, and he knew a slew of commands. Scooby is an big, active dog though, and he really needed a lot more exercise than he probably was getting in a busy family situation, and he could also have benefited from some training on the all-important calming commands like “down stay” and “place” so that he could learn to channel his energy and remain calm in the face of distractions that made him anxious. We have to wonder if he was constantly crated, because a dog of his stature and energy really needed to get out of doors to run and play! Now this poor kid is back behind bars, and he’s waiting – hoping – that someone will see what a good boy he is and save his life. Scooby has a heart of gold. There’s not a bad bone in his whole body. He just needed an experienced foster or adopter who would be his pack leader and provide him with guidance, structure and training. If you can foster or adopt Scooby, hurry and PRIVATE MESSAGE our page or email us at [email protected] for assistance. He’s competing with 15 other dogs for a home today so time is of the essence.

Guidance from a professional trainer/behaviorist is highly recommended to aid in safely managing/modifying this behavior in a new home environment. Multiple-bite history/risk of future aggression: Scooby has bitten two people. One of the bites involved a child trying to place Scooby behind a gate and broke skin. The other bite, the circumstances and severity of are not known. Guidance from a professional trainer/behaviorist is recommended to assess behavior after decompression in a new home environment.
