Greeted handler at front of kennel with soft wiggly body, wagging tail, accepted treats gently. Head shy with leash placement but will come forward to sniff leash allowing handler to place leash with no issues. Exited with some pulling on leash, soft tail wag and neutral soft body on walk to play yard, stop n go to sniff and mark. Once in yard dog would begin exploring with neutral soft body and loose tail wag, marking and sniffing around yard, high playful energy, will come to handler for quick pets but more interested in exploring, no interest in treats offered or tossed near. Took interest in rope toy, would play tug-o-war with handler, would drop rope toy and redirect attention towards leash, starts biting on leash but able to redirect attention back towards rope toy, dog would drop toy and have a moment of erratically spinning on ground while licking genital area but quickly redirected attention back to rope toy. Became overaroused while playing with rope toy and began redirecting towards handler, muzzle punched handler's stomach, jumping towards handlers face, fixated on jumping towards handler making repeated jumping attempts, tense wiggly body and wagging tail with eyes wide, mouthy towards handlers arm, able to quickly grab leash and direct dog away but dog began biting towards leash and pulling on leash when in mouth, walked dog over to fence and dog redirected attention towards walk back to kennel, able to place clip leash on walk with no issues. Wiggly soft body and loose tail wag back to kennel, entered kennel on own and used clip leash for leash retrieval.
