07/11/16 13:27 Muscketeer was laying in the carrier facing away from the door. When the carrier was approached, he did not move. The door was opened and he was scanned without him moving as well. When leashed and walked out of the carrier, he pulled and was trying to flee. He was not handled for collaring because of his medical condition.

WEB MEMO
No Web Memo

07/15/2016 BEHAVIOR EVALUATION – NH ONLY
Exam Type BEHAVIOR
Due to Musketeer’s medical condition and response to touch (likely influenced by his skin condition) he is not a candidate for a SAFER assessment at this time. We recommend placement with a New Hope partner who can address his medical conditions and then re-evaluate behavior in a stable home environment.

07/13/2016 GROUP BEHAVIOR EVALUATION 
Exam Type GROUP BEHAVIOR
Musketeer was surrendered as a stray so his past behavior around other dogs is unknown. 7/13: Musketeer is not a candidate for a dog-dog interaction due to his lameness, skin condition, and swollen paws. Performing a dog-dog interaction would be an unfair assessment due to the possibility that Musketeer may be very sensitive to another dog’s greeting.
