07/29/2016 BEHAVIOR EVALUATION – NH ONLY
Exam Type BEHAVIOR
Kravitz was difficult to remove from his kennel showing teeth, growling and lunging at the leash. He did not show any social behavior. Once Kravitz was out of the kennel he stands tall and makes direct eye contact. He was growling loudly, as well as exposing his front teeth, grabbing at the leash and preparing to lunge forward towards the handler. The behavior team decided to place him back in his kennel as he was difficult to handle. Due to the behavior demonstrated in the shelter the behavior department believes that Kravitz is not an appropriate candidate for SAFER. The behavior department feels that he 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.
