Titan came into the care as a stray so his history is unknown, the finder found him tied to a fence and brought him to the care center. Titan has shown to allow some handling with certain staff members and to be playful with dogs during playgroup but On multiple occasions, he became reactive when handlers attempted to attach leashes or drag leads to his collar, snapping and growling. Titan also demonstrated significant arousal, including jumping on handlers and being unable to settle during interactions.While he allowed some handling when distracted with treats, Titan's stress levels escalated quickly, leading to defensive behaviors such as head-whipping and growling. Titan's behavior suggests he may be fearful of handling, particularly around his neck area, and his high arousal levels. He will benefit from a patient and experienced foster or adopter who can work with him using positive reinforcement and desensitization techniques to help him become more comfortable with touch and handling. .
A volunteer writes: Titan was the best sort of surprise. Just 2 years old, Titan has been quite terrified at the shelter. So scared that he couldn't be assessed due to his stress. So when we took him out we weren't quite sure what to expect. What we got was the most precious little man who took up residence on one of our laps and didn't budge from his spot. He gently pawed at a toy we offered him, but mostly just smushed closer and closer in, resting his jowls into the crook of an arm. It was painful to return him to his kennel. Titan is the kind of dog we show up for, that finds solace sitting next to a friend on a stoop, and we hope he finds that outside of the shelter and soon.
Titan was found tied to a fence with a bowl of food next to him. When his finders approached he wagged and leg them untie him. They brought him home and gave him a bath and brought him to the shelter the next day. While Titan hasn't allowed much handling, and is specifically fearful of having a leash attached to his collar, he did well meeting another dog. They began playing with loose bodies, running around together. Titan rolled over to let his playmate take a turn and then popped up again to run around.
