My wife and I are the proud owners of Puppy #3 (his name is Arlo), and it’s honestly unbelievable to how accurately Haz was able to pinpoint the personality traits of our dog from such a young age. Everything he described at the puppy stage is exactly how our dog turned out. On a side note, Shield K9 has one of the most amazing breeding programs I’ve ever come across. I’ll never buy a dog anywhere else. Anyone considering a GSD, don’t even waste your time looking anywhere else. These dogs are genetically perfect in every single way for maximum working capability. Thank you Haz and Shield K9!

Lmao. I think the reason they test that is to make sure the dog won't have a problem going into new places to catch a criminal such as a new house or a car or something.
This also just shows how important it is for breeders to do these temperament tests before placing them. Too many breeders let families pick their puppies out. Good breeders pick the best puppy for the family based on their lifestyle.
I didn’t even know this was a thing! It seems so obvious now, or course temperament tests are important. But when I was a kid, the one time we got a dog from a breeder, I remember going back to the kennel and choosing the one with the pinkest nose and the spot on his head because I was seven. And then that was the dog we had for FIFTEEN YEARS! Now he was the best boy and it all worked out, but what if the pink nose had led me astray??
most breeders abuse dogs and pugs and other deformities should be illegal and animal cruelty but I ask for too much from our governments. sigh. I'm just against any breeding because most of it is horrendous. if I ever got a dog it would be a stray like my cats are. one has allergies and is the smarter one with nicer fur...I suspect she has some inbred fancy heritage.
@@HisameArtwork “against any breeding” so you just want all dog breeds to go extinct, so we have no purpose-bred dogs??? That’s a shitty ass opinion. You can’t throw a mutt into an arctic search-and-rescue team. Why? Because even if they have the necessary PHYSICAL traits (double-coat, counter current heat exchange, tracking nose) they will likely lack the focus and confidence necessary for long, tedious, and dangerous work. Just because you’re bad at finding reputable breeders doesn’t mean all breeders are bad. Do better.

@@captainnemolostintheocean1652 I immediately thought that’s going to the alpha in the group. (Or it it just too stupid to notice danger? More likely to be beaten to death by an elder) And it’s so funny how you compare the dog in human terms and a lot people like to compare human in dog terms (alpha or not). It also made me wonder could it be a female dog all along? 😂 showing aggressiveness. Could it be possible for dogs? I really don’t know. If so then the alpha male argument just seems stupid (although in ABO fantasy novel there is also female alpha).
@@thisiskatie7325 you tried too hard to sound ‘smart’. If it’s a girl? Like the person training him isn’t saying ‘him’ all along, or would he possibility be mistaken in your eyes? Lol
@@Qasim-H Maybe it sounds smart to you, but to me it's just thinking normally, having all kinds of ideas. You are too narrow-minded. Plus, there are tons of female police dogs. The narrator refers to all the dogs as "he", it could just be a pronoun he uses to refer to subjects he doesn't personally know. There can very well be female dogs among them. Even using "he" to refer unidentified person was very common in eras that women were not seen as equal, and are still widely used among underdeveloped and non-progressive countries and people. Does the idea of female police dog somehow agitate you LOL?
My trained dog knows untrained dogs from a distance and she has distain for them - another service dog and they show respect and continue to do their work. I was shocked when I saw this.
they're all adorable, and the first puppy was the best fit for any police work, but for a personal guard dog i would've definitely gone with number 3! he seems like such a nice people-focused pup
That first puppy was like "This is MY rag now. I'm waiting for you to let go, because it's MINE." Not overly aggressive just confident and assertive, as much as 11lbs can be Lol!
David Perry honestly I always wondered why I couldn’t train my dog as quickly as other dogs or why mine is a bit more aggressive and playful than others and this video really shows how like humans, every dog is different
@David Perry. Tell me about it! Recently, I’ve had two dogs at the same time for the first time, and it has really opened my eyes to the different personalities of animals.
Puppy 1: Ok, let's work -_- Puppy 2: Nice environment, ooh what's this? Ahh, scary x( Puppy 3: Are you my new owner? Yeah ok, I'll bite it later, but are you my new owner? :3 Puppy 4: BARK BARK BARK BARK :P
She was attracted to the trainer.. not claiming theres a sexual charge or whatever.. But girl dogs usually build a strong attachment to guy trainers/owners..
I love seeing how different puppies of the same litter turn out. Of course you can train dogs to be tolerable of noise and other distractions, but seeing how some of them just naturally are fine with such things as early as 6 weeks really speaks volumes to their individual personalities.
Puppy number one is living the good life with his owners. His tenacious behavior is sometimes a challenge for them as one would expect but they love him anyways and knew what they were getting into..🙂
Puppy 1: " I wanna serve the country" Pubby 2: " just pet me, I'm scared" Puppy 3: " nah getme otta here" Nobody: Puppy 4: shouts the whole time " gimme my fucking food"
This is fascinating and reminds me a bit of a book I read when I was growing up about testing puppy personalities. It included steps like sitting down and seeing which would wander over vs. holding back (a confident vs. shy puppy) and clapping to see which ones startle easily vs. remaining calm. For people looking for a dog, the agencies that train service and other dogs have a high "reject" rate but any dogs that even pass some of their tests make excellent pets. They often have long waiting lists of people willing to take the "rejects."
As far as pets go, I think the most important thing is to bond with your dog. If you can develop a strong trust with your dog, they will want to be a good dog! Of course, this is reciprocal. You must be good to them also. This has worked for me with my dogs.
I swear my thoughts go on the same cycles. Lol @ the algorithm. You missed this 1. Anyways, I remember I had to write a paper & we had to choose from the topics. I chose vets & their uh what do u call em? Their comfort pets? :/ yeah them. Which I forgot what the aim or the direction of the paper was. I mean, obviously we had to have a pt. I just dont know if it was an opinion thing, a persuasive thing, or what. Actually, this time, I think everyone had to write on the same topic. Lol, I only vaguely remember this. & I got sidetracked. I was like ohhh puppies 😍! Oh yeah, I gotta get stuff done. Some yrs later & I'm still on the same exact vid, smh. Ha. It'd be cool to get 1. It's just we have a pitt. & idk how that'd work. If there is any breeding going on, I'm leaving that to the hubby. I'd rather her not ever get pregnant but that's just me
Yup. If a dog isnt driven by food its way harder to train. Because you need to train a dog with positive prize for good actions. And dog treats are usually that.
@@heinuchung8680 early and basic possibly, but thinking it could also be a hindrance later. Don't want your dog giving up a trail cause they get a scent of\or find food.. In this basic exercise they are just looking for confidence in the puppies. So not a big concern.
@@theClow9 sshhh i wont tell da boiz that i cuddle wid it in ma crib. The thing that disturbs me is that a perfectly balanced dog is rare. Either they are bastards who wanna rip yoir face off or too spoiled and get soft and scared of every noise.

Perfect stuff to watch at 03:00 am. The first dog is amazing how he has that strong prey instinct already at just 6 weeks old. But 3 is my favorite, that dude just wants to be pet by the handler haha
I feel the same way. It’s rather unusual to not even flinch when someone cracks a whip next to you for the first time. It’s not about nervousness but physical reaction. There was absolutely nothing. Bit odd.
OOOuise if you watch 04:23 in slow motion you can see his ears flipping back.mits the only situation in the video where the soundsource is not in his eyesight, so it seems like he has some hearing, but maybe he is hard of hearing or something.

This is fascinating. I'm a guide dog users, so their work is extremely different from police work, but now I wonder what my school's tests are like. My dog, a lab/golden mix, is petrified of thunder and fireworks. She's eleven now, but we've been dealing with it since she was at least four. The one time I actually experienced her getting afraid of a loud noise while in harness guiding me, we were walking near some tracks to a local train-like system (I don't know its exact name). The train/vehicle came right by us, and my girl was on my left side, between me and the vehicle. She cowered against me, but as soon as it past, she kept right on walking, like, "Eh, whatever, no big deal." Thank you so much for describing what you were doing with the puppies. As a blind person, I would have been so lost otherwise! As it was, it was hard hearing the yipping and whimpering without knowing who was doing it and why. I'd like to know which of the dogs made it into whatever work they were being trained for? You mentioned one at the end, but since you didn't give a number, I have no way of knowing. I'd like to. :) Thanks for this video!
Brandon mcmillan is the most gentle, thorough and effective dog i've ever encountered. My friend and i love the dog show and never miss it. So many times we've shed a tear of happiness just seeing a dog's life changed forever when proper training is applied and they go on to live their lives the way they should. I have brandon's book th-cam.com/users/postUgkxK8-VQWpYThx4IC6MiIvb6VS1ebTzzdxq in two formats. Not only the paperback version but also the kindle version to refer to when i don't have the paperback along with me. I have used his methods with my cavalier kc spaniel and turned a non-disciplined furbaby into a companion who has traveled thousands of miles with us across the country. He is a near perfect dog thanks to brandon's methods. I don't get one cent of kickback for recommending brandon but i do it because i love dogs. They deserve to be given a chance. Brandon's mission in life - to rescue dogs and place them in a forever, happy home - is very dear to my heart. I recommend his methods to anyone who has a dog - young or old. I've seen him take even old dogs and teach them. Brandon was an animal trainer before his current mission. His parents were animal trainers. His methods are the best i've ever found. Your furbaby will thank you for spending the money on this book. Don't hesitate - it is worth every cent.
The second puppy has better survival traits--being ok with unusual environments, loud sounds, and larger animals would actually pose a danger to him in the wild. I once watched a video of a pack of baby lions interact with approaching hyenas. The babies that bolted out of there survived--the "brave" ones that went up to the hyenas did not.
True but they dont want a dog with good survival traits in that line of work...the dog is putting itself in danger when it approaches the "bad guy" with no concern for its own safety because its been trained even moreso than came naturally to never be cautious just go. Sad the dogs dont even usually have bulletproof vests on.
I ride horses with someone who trains horses for police. She says cautious animals are not what they want. They want the horses that can be led and have a lot of trust. Because of this she says that police horses are both the bravest but also the most stupid horses they are able to find.
You also have to consider that these animals never really existed in the wild, though. Virtually every breed of domesticated dog is man-made; they didn't exist in those forms when they were wild animals. They're so far removed from wild animals at this point that there's really no point even bringing up the wild. These animals have never lived in the wild; and most of them won't do particularly well if abandoned by humans. Also, they're not looking for good survival traits as others have noted. Police work is dangerous. They want animals who will put themselves in danger to protect a human; that's basically the opposite of a natural survival instinct. They also want animals who can handle a lot of stress, for the job as well as for the animal's own well-being - ideally, a working dog ENJOYS working. You don't want an animal that's unhappy or stressed all the time; that's bad for the animal, and you also won't get the best work out of it. They're putting them through these rigorous tests to make sure they'll be mentally and emotionally okay working in that environment.
so basically to pass the test you’ll have to care about food more than whatever place you’re being thrown into, be extremely friendly with strangers and don’t give a damn even if there’s gunshots right next to you.... yep, would totally nailed it...
@@vivs9314 really not. That's basically what they are testing. If he's comfortable in new environments, if he is food driven wich makes it easier to train and to divert his attention, to make sure he does not pee or get's anxious by loud noices etc. That really is what they look for
@@filthymcnastyazz they arent only looking for focus. he repeats multiple things he looks for in the video and very rarely does he only use the word "focus" because theres alot of different things they are looking for, prey drive, confidence, no nerviness, etc.
Always been, and still am, a big fan of the police K9’s. This video has taken my interest to a whole new level. You guys are great. Keep up the good work.
Honestly hard disagree. He is way too easily distracted by social cues. He'd probably make a nice family dog though - very playful and little hunting instinct
I find this video incredibly helpful. While the average family doesn’t need high performance dogs, the confidence displayed is so important for a sound dog.
How FASCINATING! The analyses of all the pups and what you are looking for. I trained sled dogs for years and I would enjoy watching each pup for signs of where I would place him/her on the team. With a few exceptions, you could spot a lead dog from a very early age. Fun stuff.
My dog has a very nervous personality. No way he would enter the room without his person. He might accept a treat from a stranger. Throw the jug or make noise and he would bolt.
Fascinating way of evaluation. If you read up human babies they can tell from almost birth who will be the introverts and extroverts. Usually they are dead on as they keep track of children as they age. Alot of the same behavior..plays with others instantly, runs into rooms with no fear etc.
Absolutely fascinating video. I initially thought, "For sure, I'd choose Puppy #1," until I read your post (from 3 weeks ago) that his new owners say "his tenacious behavior is sometimes a challenge for them." That tenacity seemed cute and promising when he was a puppy, as he you were looking at some kind of precocious kid. But your post suggests that the trait you admired in a puppy can intensify, even over-intensify, when it grows up. Choose wisely. Comments indicate a lot of people want to know what became of Puppy #1. Your statement that he "is living the good life with his owners" suggests that he never became a K9 or military dog. Is that the case? If so, oh no! Imagine hiring Usain Bolt to do pizza delivery because he is fast.
This is great work and analysis on picking dogs out for K9 work. I’ve been a German line rott breeder for many years now and my father long before me. We breed for show purposes mainly but we also provide rotts for working homes and services such as guad/protection work and police work. Keeping an out eye open for certain behavioral traits they already have as puppies is critical for choosing which one will be best suited for which line of work.
@@notimeforspace2477 I would think being so food driven could be a negative even more so taking and eating out of a strangers hand, not good security dog.

Thank you for this video! The most information and best understanding I've watched to select or learn what pups are more suited for working!!

What does the word chonk mean
@@tammyrules2000 chonk is like chunky, i.e. fat/plump etc. but when people say chonk they mean it in an affectionate way, like how babies are cute but they're still little chonks coz they have fat arms/legs/faces etc.

@@captainnemolostintheocean1652 I immediately thought that’s going to the alpha in the group. (Or it it just too stupid to notice danger? More likely to be beaten to death by an elder) And it’s so funny how you compare the dog in human terms and a lot people like to compare human in dog terms (alpha or not). It also made me wonder could it be a female dog all along? 😂 showing aggressiveness. Could it be possible for dogs? I really don’t know.

@@thisiskatie7325 you tried too hard to sound ‘smart’. If it’s a girl? Like the person training him isn’t saying ‘him’ all along, or would he possibility be mistaken in your eyes? Lol
@@Qasim-H Maybe it sounds smart to you, but to me it's just thinking normally, having all kinds of ideas. You are too narrow-minded. Plus, there are tons of female police dogs. The narrator refers to all the dogs as "he", it could just be a pronoun he uses to refer to subjects he doesn't personally know. There can very well be female dogs among them. Even using "he" to refer unidentified person was very common in eras that women were not seen as equal, and are still widely used among underdeveloped and non-progressive countries and people.

they're all adorable, and the first puppy was the best fit for any police work, but for a personal guard dog i would've definitely gone with number 3! he seems like such a nice people-focused pup
That first puppy was like "This is MY rag now. I'm waiting for you to let go, because it's MINE." Not overly aggressive just confident and assertive, as much as 11lbs can be Lol!
I found that so cute :)
This is my rag. There are many like it but this one is mine.
Wow this really opened my eyes to different dog personalities
David Perry honestly I always wondered why I couldn’t train my dog as quickly as other dogs or why mine is a bit more aggressive and playful than others and this video really shows how like humans, every dog is different
Have you never seen more than one dog before?
oknarphian exkraveduccial it’s the fact that they are shown back to back reacting differently to the same situation. Don’t try to be a smart ass.
@David Perry. Tell me about it! Recently, I’ve had two dogs at the same time for the first time, and it has really opened my eyes to the different personalities of animals.

I love seeing how different puppies of the same litter turn out. Of course you can train dogs to be tolerable of noise and other distractions, but seeing how some of them just naturally are fine with such things as early as 6 weeks really speaks volumes to their individual personalities.
These behaviors are seen earlier than 5 wks.

This is fascinating and reminds me a bit of a book I read when I was growing up about testing puppy personalities. It included steps like sitting down and seeing which would wander over vs. holding back (a confident vs. shy puppy) and clapping to see which ones startle easily vs. remaining calm.
For people looking for a dog, the agencies that train service and other dogs have a high "reject" rate but any dogs that even pass some of their tests make excellent pets. They often have long waiting lists of people willing to take the "rejects."
As far as pets go, I think the most important thing is to bond with your dog. If you can develop a strong trust with your dog, they will want to be a good dog! Of course, this is reciprocal. You must be good to them also. This has worked for me with my dogs.
I swear my thoughts go on the same cycles. Lol @ the algorithm. You missed this 1. Anyways, I remember I had to write a paper & we had to choose from the topics. I chose vets & their uh what do u call em? Their comfort pets? :/ yeah them. Which I forgot what the aim or the direction of the paper was. I mean, obviously we had to have a pt. I just dont know if it was an opinion thing, a persuasive thing, or what. Actually, this time, I think everyone had to write on the same topic. Lol, I only vaguely remember this. & I got sidetracked. I was like ohhh puppies 😍! Oh yeah, I gotta get stuff done. Some yrs later & I'm still on the same exact vid, smh. Ha. It'd be cool to get 1. It's just we have a pitt. & idk how that'd work. If there is any breeding going on, I'm leaving that to the hubby. I'd rather her not ever get pregnant but that's just me
The only thing that that surprised me here is I was not aware that a strong food drive was considered a positive trait.
Food motivated dogs are easier to train!
Yup. If a dog isnt driven by food its way harder to train. Because you need to train a dog with positive prize for good actions. And dog treats are usually that.
Yes food drives makes them easier to train.
@@heinuchung8680 early and basic possibly, but thinking it could also be a hindrance later. Don't want your dog giving up a trail cause they get a scent of\or find food.. In this basic exercise they are just looking for confidence in the puppies. So not a big concern.
They would love me, then. I never stop eating.
I realize this is all about testing a dog for potential training, but all I can think of is "WHAT A CUTE PUPPYYYYYYY"
Lol! Me too! I also thought 'wow, those are some fat puppies'!! They were really superb!
And… they are BABIES which is amazing to try to gauge future behavior but they do
They're cute, but they're basically raptors when they're under 2 y.o. 😂
Man the grip this first pupper has is amazing. He is already very open to the environment. Unbothered by anything irrelevant like the camera.

I feel the same way. It’s rather unusual to not even flinch when someone cracks a whip next to you for the first time. It’s not about nervousness but physical reaction. There was absolutely nothing. Bit odd.
I know! That what I was thinking. He didn’t react at all with the whip.
OOOuise if you watch 04:23 in slow motion you can see his ears flipping back.mits the only situation in the video where the soundsource is not in his eyesight, so it seems like he has some hearing, but maybe he is hard of hearing or something.

This is fascinating.
I'm a guide dog users, so their work is extremely different from police work, but now I wonder what my school's tests are like.
My dog, a lab/golden mix, is petrified of thunder and fireworks. She's eleven now, but we've been dealing with it since she was at least four. The one time I actually experienced her getting afraid of a loud noise while in harness guiding me, we were walking near some tracks to a local train-like system (I don't know its exact name). The train/vehicle came right by us, and my girl was on my left side, between me and the vehicle. She cowered against me, but as soon as it past, she kept right on walking, like, "Eh, whatever, no big deal."
Thank you so much for describing what you were doing with the puppies. As a blind person, I would have been so lost otherwise! As it was, it was hard hearing the yipping and whimpering without knowing who was doing it and why.
I'd like to know which of the dogs made it into whatever work they were being trained for? You mentioned one at the end, but since you didn't give a number, I have no way of knowing. I'd like to. :)
Thanks for this video!

"A puppy walks into a room." Bam, the perfect story. Fin.
Brandon mcmillan is the most gentle, thorough and effective dog i've ever encountered. My friend and i love the dog show and never miss it. So many times we've shed a tear of happiness just seeing a dog's life changed forever when proper training is applied and they go on to live their lives the way they should. I have brandon's book th-cam.com/users/postUgkxK8-VQWpYThx4IC6MiIvb6VS1ebTzzdxq in two formats. Not only the paperback version but also the kindle version to refer to when i don't have the paperback along with me. I have used his methods with my cavalier kc spaniel and turned a non-disciplined furbaby into a companion who has traveled thousands of miles with us across the country. He is a near perfect dog thanks to brandon's methods. I don't get one cent of kickback for recommending brandon but i do it because i love dogs. They deserve to be given a chance. Brandon's mission in life - to rescue dogs and place them in a forever, happy home - is very dear to my heart. I recommend his methods to anyone who has a dog - young or old. I've seen him take even old dogs and teach them. Brandon was an animal trainer before his current mission. His parents were animal trainers. His methods are the best i've ever found. Your furbaby will thank you for spending the money on this book. Don't hesitate - it is worth every cent.
Pup #1 thinking "You did good human, I accept you as my partner"
Me looking for a job: the perfect job doesn’t exi-
That first puppy is gonna make such a good K9 dog. WHY ARE PUPPIES SO DAMMMMM CUTE!!!!!
The second puppy has better survival traits--being ok with unusual environments, loud sounds, and larger animals would actually pose a danger to him in the wild. I once watched a video of a pack of baby lions interact with approaching hyenas. The babies that bolted out of there survived--the "brave" ones that went up to the hyenas did not.
True but they dont want a dog with good survival traits in that line of work...the dog is putting itself in danger when it approaches the "bad guy" with no concern for its own safety because its been trained even moreso than came naturally to never be cautious just go. Sad the dogs dont even usually have bulletproof vests on.
I ride horses with someone who trains horses for police. She says cautious animals are not what they want. They want the horses that can be led and have a lot of trust. Because of this she says that police horses are both the bravest but also the most stupid horses they are able to find.
You also have to consider that these animals never really existed in the wild, though. Virtually every breed of domesticated dog is man-made; they didn't exist in those forms when they were wild animals.
They're so far removed from wild animals at this point that there's really no point even bringing up the wild. These animals have never lived in the wild; and most of them won't do particularly well if abandoned by humans.
Also, they're not looking for good survival traits as others have noted. Police work is dangerous. They want animals who will put themselves in danger to protect a human; that's basically the opposite of a natural survival instinct. They also want animals who can handle a lot of stress, for the job as well as for the animal's own well-being - ideally, a working dog ENJOYS working. You don't want an animal that's unhappy or stressed all the time; that's bad for the animal, and you also won't get the best work out of it. They're putting them through these rigorous tests to make sure they'll be mentally and emotionally okay working in that environment.
Yes because what cops want is a dog that bolts at the first sign of trouble.
It's not a wild animal though
so basically to pass the test you’ll have to care about food more than whatever place you’re being thrown into, be extremely friendly with strangers and don’t give a damn even if there’s gunshots right next to you.... yep, would totally nailed it...
That’s why you’re not a dog lol. You’re taking all of this the wrong way anyway.
@@vivs9314 really not. That's basically what they are testing. If he's comfortable in new environments, if he is food driven wich makes it easier to train and to divert his attention, to make sure he does not pee or get's anxious by loud noices etc.
That really is what they look for
sagalindhe wrong. They want to see focus. Finding which focus they have tells you what you need to reward or withhold.
@@filthymcnastyazz they arent only looking for focus. he repeats multiple things he looks for in the video and very rarely does he only use the word "focus" because theres alot of different things they are looking for, prey drive, confidence, no nerviness, etc.
@@wolfyjade3234 'Nerviness' ♥ Bad Grammar shows poor education. 🤔 😏 👀
As a human, I wouldn’t have passed this test. Whip will make me cry, I’d want the owner more than the food, and I’m hesitant to interact LMAOO
Always been, and still am, a big fan of the police K9’s. This video has taken my interest to a whole new level. You guys are great. Keep up the good work.
Puppy #3 seems like he would make a good service dog
Honestly hard disagree. He is way too easily distracted by social cues. He'd probably make a nice family dog though - very playful and little hunting instinct
@@manuelmanolo7099 I agree. I don't think it would be impossible, but definitely a lot harder/ higher wash rate. Wayyy too people focused imao.
Puppy 4 was service dog quality
Maybe better as an emotional support dog
Being distracted by people is basically the #1 thing a service dog should not be. Sadly
This has got to be the cutest effing thing I have ever seen
I find this video incredibly helpful. While the average family doesn’t need high performance dogs, the confidence displayed is so important for a sound dog.
How FASCINATING! The analyses of all the pups and what you are looking for. I trained sled dogs for years and I would enjoy watching each pup for signs of where I would place him/her on the team. With a few exceptions, you could spot a lead dog from a very early age. Fun stuff.
The other puppies failed the test intentionally to avoid being selected to work. Smart bois!
My dog has a very nervous personality. No way he would enter the room without his person. He might accept a treat from a stranger. Throw the jug or make noise and he would bolt.
Fascinating way of evaluation. If you read up human babies they can tell from almost birth who will be the introverts and extroverts. Usually they are dead on as they keep track of children as they age. Alot of the same behavior..plays with others instantly, runs into rooms with no fear etc.
Takes a bite like no problem!
That’s a great dog right there!
Absolutely fascinating video. I initially thought, "For sure, I'd choose Puppy #1," until I read your post (from 3 weeks ago) that his new owners say "his tenacious behavior is sometimes a challenge for them." That tenacity seemed cute and promising when he was a puppy, as he you were looking at some kind of precocious kid. But your post suggests that the trait you admired in a puppy can intensify, even over-intensify, when it grows up. Choose wisely.
Comments indicate a lot of people want to know what became of Puppy #1. Your statement that he "is living the good life with his owners" suggests that he never became a K9 or military dog. Is that the case? If so, oh no! Imagine hiring Usain Bolt to do pizza delivery because he is fast.
Puppy No 1 was like “I’m Hua Mulan. I’ll bring honor to us all.” 😆 🐶
Hahahahahah
This is great work and analysis on picking dogs out for K9 work. I’ve been a German line rott breeder for many years now and my father long before me. We breed for show purposes mainly but we also provide rotts for working homes and services such as guad/protection work and police work. Keeping an out eye open for certain behavioral traits they already have as puppies is critical for choosing which one will be best suited for which line of work.
Love this! I've always been interested in these trainings, thank you for sharing!
Everyone’s hyped about number 1 but I think number 3 definitely has some potential with the right handler. He could even rival number 1 in the future.
