Exam Type BEHAVIOR
Gladys’s previous owner states that she is affectionate, methodical, talkative, and reserved. She has lived in an adult only home, but has interacted with children 5 years old and older. She was tolerant of children, but would only allow petting when she approached the family member. She is normally found lounging around at home and will hide when there are visitors. She will allow petting and being held by her owner and will run off if another family member attempts to hold her. She will swipe without nails to let someone know when she has had enough petting. Reaction to assessor: Gladys becomes stiff and alert upon approach. Reaction when softly spoken to: Gladys focuses on the assessor and starts to growl. Her ears bend flat against her head. Reaction to cage door opening: Gladys hisses and charges to the front to strike. Reaction to touch: Gladys does not allow touch; she hisses, spits, and swats at the assessor’s hand. She continues to growl and seems extremely cautious of her surroundings. Behavior Determination: New Hope Only Gladys 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, she is extremely fearful in the shelter environment 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.
