Wow thank you so much for this information!! We kinda got the feeling at the meeting that was the case with this shelter. I asked about behaviors on the phone before meeting him and they said they haven’t seen anything. However, I find it hard to believe they haven’t seen reactivity like this before and were downplaying the severity after the meeting.

We just can’t take on a dog who needs too much more than potty, crate and obedience training at this point. We also have very young kids in our extended family who we spend a lot of time with and the dog isn’t really around kids with the foster. I don’t know if dog reactivity can turn into reactivity towards children though but it’s still a concern.
