Starr was fearful and repeatedly attempted to get away from the handler during the assessment. She became uncomfortable during the handling raising her lips and snap at the assessor hand. the behavior team decided to skip the handling part of the assessment for safety reasons. During the resources Starr was not interested in toys. Starr was surrender to us.

Starr has never lived with young children. she plays gentle with the adult who was caring for her. Starr has never lived with another animal.

The behavior department feels that she 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.
