Recommendations:

Place with a New Hope partner
Recommendations comments:

New Hope Partner: Due her current medical condition/health status, Trudy is not an appropriate candidate for a SAFER assessment at this time. The behavior department believes Trudy would benefit best from placement with a New Hope Rescue who can meet her needs medically and then assess behavior once she is in a stable environment. Force-free, reward based training is advised when introducing/exposing Trudy to new and unfamiliar situations. Trudy appears to be nervous but tolerant of all handling in shelter without any issues.
