Summary:?Bleu displayed concerning behavior during the sensitivity portion of the assessment; snapping at the assessor. PLAYGROUP: Bleu’ s previous owner reported she lived with other dogs and was relaxed and playful with them. 10/11: When off leash at the care center, Bleu greets with a tucked tail, ears back and low body. She wanders the pen, keeping to herself majority of the time. MEDICAL BEHAVIOR: 10/10/16 Bleu appeared tense and struggled throughout her initial medical examination. RECOMMENDATIONS: New Hope Only _X_No children (under 13)(See potential challenges) _X_Place with a New Hope partner (Bleu may benefit best from placement with a New Hope rescue partner who can assess this behavior further in a more stable home environment.) Potential challenges: _X_Fearful/potential for defensive aggression?(Bleu has been observed to be fearful in shelter, shying away from touch, avoiding interaction and has snapped when highly uncomfortable. Because her owner profile is in stark contrast from what we have seen in the care centers, we recommend Bleu receive a decompression period to aid in acclimating to a new home environment. Force-free, reward based training only is advised when introducing/exposing Bleu to new and unfamiliar situations.)
