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.' Lucy A5800486 greeted the runner with a relaxed demeanor, she was easy to remove from the kennel and she moderately to strongly pulled on leash. In the catch pen when she was introduced to the dogs her body was neutral, her eyes were alert, her tail was low with no wag and her mouth was closed. She was easy to collar and leash. She entered the yard and ignored the dogs. She approached the handler and jumped on her. She solicited affection. She followed the handler around. When the dogs hovered around her, she became nervous. She was anxious, she paced back and forth. After some time she began to sniff the dogs. Anytime the door opened she tried to run out. Overall, Lucy was tolerant of the dogs and does not have a playstyle at this time. Behaviorally ok for public adoption, large calm dogs recommended.
