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.' On approach, high/stiff tail and vocalizing (low growl/bark). I entered the kennel and she retreated to the back, avoided eye contact. Low growls, I knelt down and called her over. She approached, sniffed me but was tense. I placed my leash on her and walked her out to the yard-needed some coaxing to exit. Once in the yard she explored, quietly approached me when I knelt down to call her over. Able to pet/touch her back without incident. Moved upwards towards her shoulders and head (she leaned in since she is itchy). Able to perform handling \"exam\" and slowly pick her up to return to kennel. Ok for public, Adults REQ
