So...Keno seems to have socialization/ confidence issues with other dogs. This was the boy originally described as dog aggressive, and can be if not handled properly. So intros need to be slow and the other dog friendly.
On walks, he sees some walkers, a few families outside, and yard people who catch his friendly interest. He loves humans. We've been trying to work with him on dogs passing by. We have him sit for treats to distract him and to eventually disensitize him from having too much interest in the dogs?
We will continue to work with Keno to try to get him doggy socialized. Paws crossed.

Keno Gets a Night Out!
Keno is finally out of ISO and is curious about everything! He'll get into stuff when you're not looking either ;) Typical Mal. He did fairly well walking on the leash but was bratty when trying to put it on but settled down quick. Seems more interested in humans than other dogs but the few he saw and met, his hackles did rise and he growled at one dog so the jury still out on whether he will do well with other dogs or maybe opposite sex only? He was also pesky around the cat cages. Meow! See pictures of Keno's night out!

Keno's Out of ISO!
Keno is finally out of the Isolation quarters! Auntie M. decided to put him to work and he now is the appointment setter at the clinic. Just joking of course but he does seem interested in all the office stuff :) Although Keno is out of ISO, he is still being monitored in the regular kennel run for now.
