03/19-2024 11:18 The person who found and called Animal Control stated that he growls when you are near his food. He growled at me when trying to weigh him, put him in his kennel or and when I tried to touch the back half of his body. His body is constantly tensing up. He does seem to be older so the growls may be due to pain. Vet check is in, waiting on vet's notes.
03/21/24 09:45 good boy easy to handle, but he is not kenneling well, stressed hyper salivating and non stop barking. moved to isolation
04/12/24 10:22 He's been moved several times throughout the shelter to help reduce stress. He continues to bark and trying to get out of the kennel. He gets exercise in the Play yard to help but he needs training and is getting difficult to handle. He is overestimated and his behavior continues to deteriorate.
