We conducted a series of tests on the puppies to help assess their temperaments. This testing is commonly known as the Volhard test and we added a few things to the series that we think also helps with the determination. The day these photos were taken, the puppies were taken outside to the back and it was the first time they had been around the pool. The blue and the Green puppies managed to stay away but the purple and the red both got curious and learned about the edge. You will see some wet puppy photos here. This is all part of the learning process. It is good to let your puppy learn when you are nearby to be sure and help him out of the mess.
The Blue Puppy has tested mainly in the 2's and has shown that he will most likely be a good dog for a working dog home or a person with previous alpha dog experience. This dog will be very active and will need a lot of discipline. With that in mind, he is extremely intelligent and is a quck thinker.
The red puppy is no longer available.
The purple puppy has tested with results mainly in the 3's and is showing to be a steady puppy, happy and playful. He comes readily to strangers and plays willingly with a new toy. He has little interest in chasing a ball at this point, that will likely come a bit later. He is best suited as a family dog as he will get along with all members of the family and bond easily. He will likely take discipline well and learn quickly. A steady voice and consistency will be the best training philosophy with this puppy.
The Green Puppy is no longer available.
We will continue to post photos each week as the families who purchase these puppies check this site for updated postings.
The puppies will get their first worming this week as well as the first in the series of their puppy vaccinations.
