Puppy Testing Secrets Revealed!
Puppy Testing Secrets Revealed!
Mission: To select a perfect pet for a very busy family with a bunch of rowdy kids.
RESULTS
Drive: Both pups like to play. Betty is the more driven of the two.
Environmental Stability: Notice that Bunny was in the tunnel while Betty backed up and barked.
Startle Test: Betty runs to the sound. Bunny startles and then continues doing what she is doing.
Flying Puppy: Both pups were found to be good flyers.
Sociability: When the breeder was embarrassed Bunny was the first pup to come to her aid showing a early sense of empathy. Just kidding but that is the type of crap that sells books....hmmm
Pre Eliminatory Behavior: Watch as the pups head toward the door when they feel the urge. Good pups make life easy.
So who did you pick? Bunny, she shows the traits that I believe will make her the most successful pup in the house of my clients. Not that Betty isn’t cool too, but she shows a little more drive and the reactivity that usually comes with that kind of energy.
