*Penny is not adapting well to being in a kennel at the shelter and is displaying
signs of kennel distress and anxiety. *Penny is starting to instigate cage fighting
with her neighbors. She pulls on leash but is currently in the shelters dog training
program and is learning loose leash walking and other manners. *Penny is struggling
in her kennel, She is still cage fighting. She has caked on feces on her walls due to
stress. She is not starting to cause self injury and is having a hard time breaking her
focus from her stressy behaviors. The stress of the shelters is becoming too much
for *Penny. This animal would benefit from a calmer environment and training to be
able to cope with changing environments and separation. This animal needs
placement by 5/15 by 3pm.
UPDATE: This animal has shown some improvements and is beginning to respond
to interventions provided. The commitment date is being extended to assess if
further improvements will be made with intervention. The commitment date is being
extended from (5/13) to (5/15).
