Larry went to playgroup on 5/5/23. He was stiff and seemingly overwhelmed upon entry, but greeted and was greeted with tolerance. He targeted the first dog who came in after him and started chasing her down - he put her tail in his mouth but did not bite down. He was fixated on her and could not be deterred by typical handler intervention. After we grabbed his leash, he continued to try to chase the other dog. He was removed from the yard promptly.
