Porsche's puppies and I (and my good friend Kat) are headed down to Red Deer to have Cindy and Joanne do Puppy Aptitude Testing. It is a formal form of temperament testing that gives some addiitonal information about the puppies' temperament over and above the information that I collect during their development and eight week assessments.
It will be interesting to see what I've got! :)
So how did it go?? Did you get any pictures?
ReplyDeleteIt went really well, Dawn. I was a little surprised that they weren't more obnoxious, but the final result is that every puppy is nicely well rounded and should be easy to live with. They may not make superlative working dogs, but those aren't easy to live with (this, I know!). :)
ReplyDeleteOver all I was really pleased and was so glad that Cindy and Joanne were able to do this for me.
Oh...and no photos - the "peanut gallery" chatting was bad enough...the clicking of my camera would have driven Cindy mad, I think. LOL
ReplyDeleteI would LOVE to hear more about this testing. I have only heard of minor temperment tests.
ReplyDeleteWe did Volhard Puppy Aptitude Testing (PAT's)

I think I would of preferred the click of a camera versus the chatting in the peanut gallery ;-) LOL
