Brix
|
Brix is at risk due to behavioral concerns. Brix has become difficult to walk safely due to his fixation on inanimate objects on walks.

Handlers could initially manage this behavior by walking him with a toy that he would carry but there was an incident with a staff member where he dropped the toy and lunged several times during a walk towards handler. Due to safety concerns Brix needs placement in a reduced stress environment where these behaviors can be focused on. Medically, Brix is apparently healthy.
