He entered the play yard with soft body language. He was approached by a male Pitbull and exchanged a soft greeting with him. He then began to roam the yard and explore. He was tolerant of dogs trailing him to sniff him. He continued to roam the yard and exchange soft greetings with other dogs. He would give appropriate growl corrections to higher energy dogs that were playfully jumping on him, trying to entice him to play. He remained social for the rest of his time in the yard, but he was more comfortable with the calmer dogs. He would approach the handlers and seek affection. Khan is social with the other dogs, but he displayed no play style at this time and would do best with a calmer dog.
