Halloween Celebration Part 1
Unfortunately we did not win this costume contest this year, but I'm still super proud of how they turned out. Everyone looked so amazing!

This was a case from today. This dog started off very aloof, nervous, fearful and avoidant of me. Skittish, would flinch and cower at the sound of a leaf crunching under my feet as I walked.

We progressed to more affiliative engagements, then we started introducing play when he landed a harder contact bite on my arm. This is where the recording starts.

In some cases, these responses are delayed. It can take weeks for the dog's threshold to shift to a point where they start exhibiting responses such as excessive jumping, mouthing at the leash, biting at limbs or clothing. There was a case where a volunteer was pulled down by her ponytail, and the dog had been coping in the shelter for some time before that incident. In other cases, the onset of the responses can appear much sooner. Like humans, every dog is different, as is their ability to manage their impulses and psychological/biological states.

Now, this may ruffle some feathers, but I am simply conveying my objective observations. I love bully breeds. I have some tattooed, and they are some of my favorite dogs (I am partial to Shepherds and Malinois too). We foster them often. But, I have found that these responses are disproportionately seen in bully breeds.

There is no moral judgment behind that statement. Dogs are not cruel, vindictive, callous in the way that humans can be. But it is important to understand the influence biology and genetics can have on behavior. I truly believe that the shift from blame to understanding is needed.
