Bumper's care needs are:
[YELLOW]Background: Brought in stray by finder on 9/24/26 along with four other dogs of the same age. Dogs appear to be siblings and were found as a group. Given yellow dot on intake. Staff noted dogs were Green dot for handling, allowed all handling for intake including vaccines. Made Yellow dot only because they do not walk well on leash. Dogs were carried into the intake room. Handling evaluation based on review of volunteer and staff notes to date.O: Comes to the front of the kennel with loose tail wags. Lowered posture when leash is presented. Lured through loop with treats. Hesitates briefly, but generally follows handlers out. Some stalling in the hallway, follows treats or verbal encouragement outside. Outside with leash dropped, jumps up on handlers with soft, relaxed body language and soft eyes. Does not respond to sit lure or verbal cue. Follows tossed treats. Handled on his head, ears, neck, chest and shoulders by two different handlers, received with soft eyes and face. Leaned against then climbed in handlerbx00#25;s lap during one outing. Returns to kennel B without issues and relaxed while handling around head and neck for removal of slip leash. A: Approaches handler readily and shows enjoyment with pets. Jumps up and makes soft contact for attention/treats. Does not appear to know any commands. Appears to be unfamiliar with walking on leash. No issues kenneling. Yellow for volunteer handling: dog is somewhat avoidant of leashing and does not walk well on leash. Consider for Green if recommended by volunteers. P: Make available for adoption. Recommend adopters continue to work on basic manners (leash skills, recall, sit) using a patient, reward-based training approach. Unknown how this dog may behave around children. Adopters should be aware that this dog may have no previous training and little socialization with people and/or other animals outside of its own family group.[2026-09-27 11:58:00.000]
