Additional Information:
Bo, Chi x JRT, tan, 6mths old, female undesexed – Central West Shelter
Bo is a little more confident than sibling Benji and shown quick improvements. She will accept hand to mouth feeding, lowered posture and tense, advances and retreats with passive interactions, avoidant of the lead, avoids gaze and shakes off after interactions. She is more frantic and panting with Benji in the kennel but once separated can quickly build confidence around the lead. Makes good response to putting her head through and out the lead on her own and is more confident getting out of the kennel within 10mins. She does appear conflicted and appeasement but has shown to be better once removed from Benji.
A modified BE has been conducted. She shows fearful behaviours, avoidant, freezes with mild recovery, chooses to seek reassurance and information from the handler, explores and engages with the environment. The dog introduction has not been conducted due to fearful behaviours but neither dog has shown negative reactions towards one another in the home.
Bo is not on any medication and is awaiting a vet check and desexing. Bo weighs 7.01kg.
