07/30/2016 BEHAVIOR EVALUATION – NH ONLY
Exam Type BEHAVIOR
Chilli was difficult to remove from her kennel showing teeth, growling. The behavior team had to use a towel to safely remove her from her kennel. Chilli is fearful of the shelter environment he walks with a low and fearful body language. She was fearful and repeatedly attempted to get away from the handler during the assessment. She had a low body, hackles raised, ears back, tucked tail, showing his teeth. The behavior team decided to skip the handling part of the assessment for safety reasons. During the resources Chilli was not interested in toys. Chilli was surrender to us. According to her previous owner Chilli is very friendly around strangers and children. She was not introduced to cats. She lived in the home with 2 other dogs and lived with them all her life.

The behavior department feels that Chilli 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. Playgroup Notes: When off leash with other dogs, Chilli stays in one spot and does not approach.
