A dog's behavior in an Animal Care Center may differ significantly from how they behave in a home. Stress, confinement, and unfamiliar surroundings can cause dogs to act out or suppress behaviors that may emerge later. A dog's behavior may change based on surroundings, training, medical, socialization, and life experiences.? Big Boy A5729245 greeted the runner with a relaxed demeanor, he was easy, and eager to exit the kennel and he moderately pulled on leash. In the catch pen when he was introduced to the dogs his body was neutral, his mouth was closed, his tail was low with no wag and his ears were alert. He was easy to collar and leash. He entered the yard and ignored the dogs. He began exploring. He kept to himself. He sniffed his environmental surroundings. He solicited affection from the handlers. He was able to co-exist with the dogs, but he preferred to stay in the yard with the least number of dogs. He stood by the edge of the second yard for a long time, he watched the dogs play from far but was uninterested in playing. Overall, Big Boy was tolerant of the dogs and does not have a playstyle at this time. Behaviorally ok for public adoption, large calm dogs recommended.
