WEB MEMO
No Web Memo

04/29/2016 BEHAVIOR EVALUATION – NH ONLY
Exam Type BEHAVIOR
Due to Luigi’s significant medical condition and fragile state, he is not a candidate for a SAFER aggression assessment at this time. Luigi came in as a stray so we cannot speak to his behavior in his previous home. He has been easy to handle for his medical examinations, but as we are unable to fully assess his behavior we recommend placement with a New Hope partner who can address his medical conditions and then re-evaluate behavior in a stable home environment.
