SAFE 10/25/17

Cammy

Hello, my name is Cammy. My animal id is #10201. I am a female white dog at the Manhattan Animal Care Center. The shelter thinks I am about 8 years old.

I came into the shelter as a stray on 19-Oct-2017.

Cammy 10201 is at risk for her medical condition, including possible KCS, dental disease, cataracts, luxating patellas, and an ear infection. Please see the veterinary notes for further details and clarification. Behaviorally, Cammy has been timid but tolerant of handling and interaction and is suitable for an adopter with an average amount of dog experience.

My medical notes are…

Weight: 4.9 lbs

BEHAVIOR DETERMINATION:: AVERAGE (suitable for an adopter with an average amount of dog experience)

Potential challenges comments:: Cammy is a bit timid of new people and situations. She should be spoken to in a soft, gentle voice and never forced to submit to petting or handling when she is uncomfortable.
