𝗦𝗵𝗲𝗹𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗡𝗼𝘁𝗲𝘀: 9/24: Approaching kennel, Redd held red eyes, open mouth pant, and high flagging tail as I babytalked to him. He took the treats I offered as redirection readily and once leashed he also began to pull heavily. Noticed that as the leash would get tighter, he would reach back for the leash in order to bite it. I redirected a few times with treats but he continued to behave the same way. on the way to and from the runs. Once placed in the run and back to his kennel, he starts to get vocal until treats are tossed over 9/23: Approaching kennel Redd was barking with head turned in the air front paws coming off ground, high flagging tail. I opened kennel and leashed as he exited. He began to pull very hard so I decided to harness, while placing harness on dog snapped at my hand not making contact(possibly due to never being harnessed), when he would pull with harness on and it would tighten he would turn and he would try to bite leash. Began to offer treats to help distract which did not help. SO dog contiuned to turn and try to bite leash that was used as a harness when it tightened. Placed into run and was able to remove leash/harness with no issues. When coming back to retrieve him I decided not to harness. DOg began to pull very hard. I would stop and call him to me showing him a treat telling him to sit when he sat I would offer treat then continue to walk. Did this for entire walk he began to expect treats loosening a bit on leash. Once in kennel he did begin to bark when neighboring puppies would bark recovered kennel and offered enrichment. 9/21: Approaching kennel, Redd come to me with an open mouth pant and red eyes as I babytalk to him as well as offer treats. He took them readily but once out of the row, he starts to pull heavily without redirection from treats. Noticed him getting vocal when getting left in the run as well as in kennel. Coevred his kennel door and can keep him busy with treats being tossed.
