Behavior notes:
5/12/24 volunteer notes: Junior was excited to leave his kennel and was easily leashed. Pulled to get outside and you could tell was happy to be there. And the dog run he spent a lot of his time exit searching and whining. He allowed pets all over but was disinterested and engaging in play or taking any treats. He would happily walk along with you, but was on the lookout constantly. He walked through the kennels line, but when we approached his kennel door, he did backtrack and tried to get out of his leash. I did find another staff member to help me get into his kennel as he was a little bit hard to control with one person at that time.
