Shape-Shifting is yet to be documented by modern science. And in all due respect, [reasonably, for as said, the pain from tissues changing on a cellular level would likely induce pain, insanity, and death. I think natural sedatives would take no effect here, for the body would be too messed up for the sedatives to work, or get through the body properly.] the bodily shift would have to put the state of the human body into a period of flux; A space in time where the person had the autonomy of two beings trying to occupy the same space. You would then be left with a deformed, hairy man.
Basically, a brain being put into another body.
[This is all if the body changes without the brain. If the brain was changed at all, the shape-shifter would have no memory within his grasp, because, If I understand the concept correctly, the brain makes connections between parts of the brain to process and remember things differently. In changing the brain, you break the bonds.] So, I believe upon the brain's change, to physical body would be capable of but our basic motor skills. On top of that, the heart would probably get mangled too. And don't even get me started for the amount of energy you'd need for this bodily change.
I think relocating physical mass is nearly impossible to do without death. Walking dogs are by far, much, much more plausible. Much easier to express, and come to terms too.
