What characteristics you would advise looking for in a PTSD service dog prospect in a litter of pups?
Full Question:
Hi!I was wondering what characteristics you would advise looking for in a PTSD service dog prospect in a litter of pups? I?ve selected an outstanding breeder, whose previous litters had pups that went on to successfully complete service dog training, so there?s a history showing promise in genetics. So as far as temperament, what specifically would you look for if you were choosing an ideal candidate?
Thanks so much!
Cindy's Answer:
No matter what type of "work" I plan on doing with a dog if I am picking out a puppy I look for good structure, confidence, affinity for people, I like to see good food/toy drive and I look at the parents, grandparents and any adult siblings. Since your breeder has produced the type of dog you are looking for then they would be your most valuable resource.
