05/27/2016 BEHAVIOR EVALUATION – NH ONLY
Exam Type BEHAVIOR
Ginger came to us as an owner surrender but the owner did not supply any behavioral information of how she behaved in the home. So, we can only document the behavior that has been observed while in the shelter environment. Ginger was tense and nervous during her medical exam, but did not show any signs of aggression. Unfortunately, due to Ginger’s medical condition a possibility of discomfort and an attempt to decrease stress levels a SAFER assessment will not be completed at this time. We recommend placement with a New Hope partner that can provide the proper medical care for Ginger. 5/27/16 Enrichment observation: Ginger is anxious in her kennel, panting and seeking exit. Once out she allows touch but does not seek attention. She greets the dog she came in with but does not continue to seek him out once she is moved away from him.
