No Web Memo
10/02/2015 BEHAVIOR EVALUATION – NH ONLY
Exam Type BEHAVIOR
Peewee came in as a stray, so his past behaviors in a home are unknown. Peewee allowed all handling during his medical examinations without issue. Due to the possibility of discomfort as a result of the handling, his overall medical condition, and our desire to decrease stress in the care center, the handling and resource items were skipped. Due to our inability to fully evaluate him, we recommend placement with a New Hope partner who can address the medical conditions and then re-evaluate behavior in a stable home environment.
