Lucky previously lived with 2 adults. The owner stated Lucky is receptive and tolerant of small children. It was reported by the owner Lucky does guard his food, toys or treats. The owner mentioned Lucky is well behaved when home alone. At intake it was reported Lucky was quiet and loose for all handling. During SAFER Lucky came into the assessment room calm and quiet, he was a bit social towards the assessor, allowed all handling items to be conducted without issue. Lucky was relaxed during the tag interaction, and during the resources portion of the assessment Lucky was easy to handle when engaged with the items. Lucky did not show any resource behavior during the safer, but due to some concerns stated from the previous owner that Lucky does guards his food, toys and treats in the household, the behavior department feels its best he can go home with an experience adopter with no children.
