Pre-Screener Form

Rocky Pebble was surrendered to the care center by his previous owner due to behavior concerns. Rocky Pebble is reported to have bitten multiple times by his previous owner; in the most recent incident he is reported to have bitten his owner on the leg, a bite-and-release that left puncture wounds and was treated at home. Rocky Pebble is also reported to snap when items he has stolen are touched, when he is restrained, or when his paws are touched. Outside of this behavior, Rocky Pebble's previous owners describe him as a social, affectionate dog who likes to spend time where his people are. Rocky Pebble has shown fearful and defensive behavior at the care center, including head whipping, growling, and baring teeth when staff have attempted to handle him. Due to all noted concerns, we recommend placement with a New Hope partner who can provide any necessary behavior modification (force-free, positive reinforcement-based) and re-evaluate behavior in a stable home environment before placement into a permanent home.
