Pio was at the front of the kennel alert barking with a slightly tense demeanor as the runner approached. Pio was leashed and removed from the kennel without issue and was taken to the catch pen. Once in the catch pen Pio was collared/leashed without incident. He greeted the dogs at the barrier with a neutral demeanor and was allowed into the play yard. Pio displayed a neutral body, closed mouth, ears back, low tail, and a neutral gaze. Pio allowed the dogs to sniff him but appeared uncomfortable. He was tolerant of the dogs then moved on to explore the yard. Pio roamed the yard sniffing and marking various locations. As he explored the yard Pio primarily kept to himself tolerating the dogs in the yard. After some time, Pio started to socialize amongst the calmer dogs but did not participate in play. Pio maintained a neutral demeanor displaying no play style at this time. Pio could benefit from further socialization and confidence building. See additional assessment for placement recommendations.
