I am a little concerned that following the Raising a Working Puppie video is working too good. My problem is I seem to be getting only people looking for pets. Remember, I am new to the GS (so be kind). I have very nice pups and they are following the leads on training to a T. I know that they will be excellent family dogs, but I can't help but want more for them. Should I begin to stop the chewing on pants and arms some, so that when people came to look they will not think I have a bunch of monsters? They are 8 wks today. They come when called and they play tug on a washcloth great. Of course you can't walk without them attached to your legs. Thanks for any advise offered.

Hehe...it *is* a good video, I wish it had been available 15 years ago!
As far as your little guys chewing on you - well, what kind of buyers do you think you'll get? I can see that you're thinking this through ( smart! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> ) but your dogs are what they are from a genetic standpoint. Even if they're just AKC dogs, they'd be happier with a job like obedience or agility, and if you can get prospective owners with those interests, they'll be glad to get whatever drive is availalble from the dogs.
However, if we're talking a strictly pet type of market, then future owners likely won't care much about the drives and a well-behaved puppy would be a better bet.
