ENRICHMENT NOTES:
04/09/18
Hunched in back of kennel, body tense and tail curled around feet. Tolerates petting along head and body while leaning away from me and lowering body further, ears flattening. Needs more time to adjust.

04/10/18
Lying in back of kennel, body low and tense. Avoids eye contact and shifts away from my hand in an attempt to avoid touch. Steps forward and sniffs treats I place down but doesn’t eat them during our interaction – may be too focused on me and environment. Needs some time to adjust.

Lying down underneath his kuranda bed and slow blinks when I approach the kennel. Slowly turns his head away when I tried coaxing him forward. Leans away and seems hesitant of contact when I extended my hand out. He closes his eyes and wraps his tail around his body when pet. His body feels a bit tense and he slowly inches away when he’s done interacting. Needs more time to adjust.

04/16/18
Lying in front of kennel, body low and tense. He raises his head as the kennel door opens and makes eye contact, ears tilting and face tense.

He eats all his treats after I’ve closed the kennel door. Needs some time to adjust.
