07/01/2015 BEHAVIOR EVALUATION – NH ONLY
Exam Type BEHAVIOR
Reaction to Assessor: Dora was hissing and growling upon approach. When softly spoken to, she focuses on the assessor and continues to growl. Reaction to cage door opening: Dora becomes stiff and alert. Reaction to touch: Dora hisses at the assessor’s hand and backs away. When attempting to pet, she lifts her paw up and swats at the hand. Reaction to being picked up: Note: Dora was surrendered due to a medical condition. Despite her condition, the owner states she remained quiet and friendly. She was a bit tense and nervous during her medical exam, but she is creating distance between her and the assessor during the interaction. It is difficult to tell at this time how her medical condition may be influencing the behavior. Behavior Determination: NH ONLY Dora is displaying behaviors that preclude placement in the adoptions room and/or may require further investigation before placement in a home. She has tried to swat and does not currently tolerate petting or handling. The behavior department feels that placement with a New Hope Partner is the best option at this time.
