On a day out with a volunteer, Harvey was great in the car, jumping right in and settling. He walked nicely on leash and front clipped harness/collar. He met an older female dog and they walked well side by side. When Harvey occasionally got too close she corrected him and he accepted it. He ignored other passing dogs. He spent some time in a crate and whined softly and briefly before settling. He took an interest in indoor and outdoor cats and squirrels, so maybe would do best in a home without smaller animals. Harvey met an 8 year old and was calm while he petted him. He seemed a little nervous around loud passing cars but did not overreact. From these and previous shelter observations, Harvey:
- seems house trained (potties outside and is not destructive left alone)
- walks nicely on leash; loves to sniff
- settles in a crate after briefly whining
- is not reactive around other dogs (slow intro always recommended for both dogs` sake)
- may be too interested in cats to live with them
- seems comfortable around children with good dog manners
- doesn`t like loud cars but doesn`t overreact
- enjoys being pet and loved on
