Temperament tests and notes

River was motorin around the nest as soon as his eyes opened. Unphased by anything I put in front of them, he was always the first one to approach, tail wagging.  Watchful, patient and absolutely positive he knows exactly what to do. He dives head first into most things without thinking, especially if food is involved.  ENS seemed to have done wonders for him - he became almost anticipatory of which way he was going to be turned. By the time 3 week temp tests came along he was relaxed and accepting of both the dangle and the turn over. Very nice pup with a very sweet face. 

Score       5-6                                                                                    weight    3.9 lbs

River as a very emotional puppy that assumes the best of everything. Very easy to read and expressive. Unfortunately some of that is vocal. He may resort to whining if he is not "seen" and recognized. Temperament tests were spectacular. Followed like a charm and we had graduated to using a clicker prior to the tests so he had a sense of what I was going to do before I did it.  Very food motivated will be easy to train.  Sweet face, nice med/long  coat and bone structure is beautifully solid but lighter, not bone-heavy.
