SAFER test results: AWESOME temperament!!

Bora walks calmly on the leash and was sociable toward the handler during the assessment - soft body, low wag. She was excited during some of the handling items, but had soft body language. She had a low body position during the tag test, but followed the assessor at the end of the leash. She was a bit difficult to push out of the food bowl, but had soft body language and was easy to handle when chewing on toys and rawhides. Bora was relaxed when approaching the helper dog, but was not playful.
