Background:Brady's journey to our shelter began when he was surrendered by his previous owner. Described as social and affectionate, Brady thrives on companionship and loves spending time with his people. He previously lived with two Large Mixed Breed (LMB) dogs, indicating his familiarity and comfort around other canines.Behavior Assessment:During his assessment on April 16, 2024, Brady demonstrated moderate strength and pulling while on a leash. He showed no reactivity to humans or dogs and exhibited friendly and outgoing behavior, both with familiar and unfamiliar dogs, whether on or off leash. However, Brady displayed jumping behavior when excited and showed some mouthiness and sensitivity to touch during handling.Interactions:Brady is an enthusiastic and active dog who enjoys interacting with people and other dogs alike. His previous experience living with LMB dogs suggests his social nature and adaptability to canine companionship. However, his reported occasional mouthiness, especially during play, indicates a need for supervision and training.Energy Level and Recommendations:Described as very high energy, Brady requires daily mental and physical stimulation to keep him engaged and satisfied. We recommend activities such as long-lasting chews, food puzzles, and interactive games to channel his energy positively. Additionally, positive reinforcement and reward-based training techniques are recommended for Brady's continued development.Behavior Determination:Brady has been assessed as a Level 2 dog. While generally friendly and outgoing, his jumping behavior and reported mouthiness suggest a need for supervision and training, particularly in households with young children.Potential Challenges:Brady may present challenges related to basic manners, mouthiness, and handling sensitivity. Additionally, his reported anxiety when left alone and on-leash reactivity require careful management and training. With patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement, these challenges can be addressed effectively.Despite his quirks, Brady is a lovable and affectionate companion who is ready to find his forever home. If you're prepared to provide him with the guidance and support he needs, Brady could be the perfect addition to your family.
