Recommendations comments:
New Hope Partner: Due to his current medical condition/health status the behavior department believes Juni would benefit best from placement with a New Hope Rescue who can meet his needs medically and then once he is in a stable environment. Force-free, reward based training is advised when introducing/exposing Juni to new and unfamiliar situations.
