11/04/2015 BEHAVIOR EVALUATION – NH ONLY
Exam Type BEHAVIOR
Papo was difficult to remove from his kennel he is fearful (showing teeth and lunges at the rope). He did not show any social behavior. Papo did not allow any touch or handling (body stiff, freezing). The behavior department decided to skip the handling part of the assessment for safety reasons. During the resources Papo was not interested in toys. He does not approach other dog, attempts to exit. Papo was surrender to us. His previous owner is described him as shy, affectionate, and friendly with a low activity level. Papo lived with children ages 2, and 3 and owner says he is tolerant but usually avoids them. Papo lived with a dog and a cat, and he is playful with the dog but aloof towards the cat. The owner mentioned that Papo is unbothered when food bowl is touched”. Due to the behavior demonstrated in the shelter the behavior department believes that Papo was not an appropriate candidate for a full SAFER. The behavior department feels that he would do best if placed with a New Hope partner who can follow up on this behavior in a more stable environment and can provide any necessary behavior modification before placement into a permanent home. Toy 1: No interest. Dog-dog: 2. Dog does not approach the helper dog. Turns body to side in relation to other dog, or exits. Helper:A1056565
