Dog backed up, sat down. Sniffed leash on floor, sniffed handler's hand. Handler slowly formed large loop and slid leash over dog. Dog got up and followed handler slowly out. Stops when he feels leash pressure. Made it all the way to sally port door, but several people were in sally port and dog froze. Dog lay down and would not move.

Second handler retrieved towel, handlers able to lift dog onto towel and drag towel back to dog's ward. Dog had to be coaxed to walk back into kennel. No issues unleashing.B A: Dog is extremely stressed in shelter environment. Will walk on leash with a lot of patience, but appears to get overwhelmed with noise/new people/new sounds.
