During SAFER Blue Ivy was shy when interacting with the assessor, but he allowed all handling items to be conducted without issue, and was a bit fearful during the tag interaction. During the resources portion of the assessment Blue Ivy only showed minimal interest for all the items and during the dog-dog interaction Blue Ivy approached the helper with stiff body language. Blue Ivy can be shy during introductions, and becomes fearful of sudden movements. The department feels Blue Ivy would do best with an experienced adopter with no young children, and we recommend that introductions are done slowly, and Blue Ivy be given the opportunity to interact at his own pace.
