About choppy: DEADLINE MONDAY, 8/26 at 11 AM‼️ ADOPT/RESCUE - PRE-LAB - SPACE Choppy (A1224794) 6 years old Neutered 65.00 pounds *Owner surrendered for behavior on 8/19/2024

Previous owner notes: Chews/Digs, Tolerant with other dogs, resource guards food and toys PLAYGROUP: EPG1 DG - DAINTY & GENTLE On 8/21/24 Tolerant of the other dogs, but he seemed to prefer to keep to himself at this time. He was a bit nervous and would give appropriate corrections to communicate that he rather be left alone. He would start to become more accepting of receiving greetings after getting more comfortable with the dogs. SHELTER OBSERVATION On 8/19/24 Upon intake Choppy was extremely aggressive when i approached with saliva dripping from his mouth, baring teeth, growling loudly, presenting defensiveness, whale eye whilst in the car with the family keeping them in fear. Catch pole is necessary when handled When approached by kennel side he will curl his top lip and begin a low growl to intimidate. On 8/21/24 Choppy seemed very fearful in the kennel. He gave a light growl and would lip curl. I went slow while leashing him and he allowed me to place it on him. Choppy walked well on the leash to the yard. After having some time to get used to me, he didn't mind touched and handled. He would seek the petting as well after getting more comfortable with me.
