Temperament tests

Puppies have now had two different temperament tests. One at 6 weeks and one at 7 weeks. Temperment testing is not a formal science, it is simply a tool that helps assess puppy reponses and helps to identify certain potentials. Differences can be very subtle. All the puppies are sweet, curious, bright and lively. Some of the things identified are simply areas where one puppy may be more so than the others, athough all may have these qualities to varying extents. The results we got came as no surprise and are pretty close to what we have already been able to see ourselves in the puppies over the past several weeks.

Lace is sweet, gentle and loves attention. She is a lover and a cuddler. Cocoa is very sociable but also extremely curious, confident, spunky and adventurous. Casper is outgoing, friendly and easygoing. He is a lively little clown. Onyx is curious, adventurous and somewhat independent, always on the go.
