Exam Type BEHAVIOR
Storm previously lived with 1 adult and has been socialized with children cats and dogs. The owner stated when Storm is around cats and dogs he is respectful tolerant and relaxed, when he is interacting with cats and dogs he is gentle and well behaved. It was mentioned by the owner when Storm is around children he is rough and does not do well around children in general. The owner stated Storm is house trained, well behaved when home alone and he has a high activity level. The owner describes as being playful, pushy, confident, excitable, affectionate, aloof, independent and friendly. At intake Storm was nervous and hiding by his owner, he allowed some handling. During SAFER Storm came into the assessment room nervous and fearful, he was not interested with the assessor, allowed all handling items to be conducted without issue. Storm was fearful and unresponsive during the tag interaction, and during the resources portion of the assessment Storm was easy to handle when engaged with the items. Storm has been showing fearful behavior and avoids interaction in the care center. We cannot be certain if behavior may be suppressed as a result of the shelter environment. Please note that behavior may change when Storm is more comfortable and settled in a home environment. In addition, we recommend that introductions are done slowly, and Storm be given the opportunity to interact at his own pace, so the behavior department feels Storm can be suitable for an experience adopter with no children.
