During SAFER Orchid walked into the assessment room calm and relaxed she had a loose body posture when interacting with the assessor, she allowed all handling items to be conducted without issue. Orchid was relaxed during the tag interaction, and during the resources portion of the assessment. Orchid was easy to handle when engaged with the item.
