@SafariDoodles Thank you for your reply. I have read all the information I could find about how to perform the test, how to evaluate and interpret the results. I think I'll be able to do it. I just didn't understand about webbing and that point you are supposed to press. I think I'll just skip that part. The rest would be enough to get the general idea about puppy's temperament and to detect some extreme cases.

@SullivanOlssen This puppy will turn into a easy going adult who is not bothered by noises or sudden movement. He is more people focused than toy focused and will probably be a bit of a shadow.

@SullivanOlssen This puppy is happy, confident in stressful situations (not noise or movement sensitive) and a little on the submissive side, but people focused as opposed to toy focused. This translates into a easy going adult that adapts well but isn't too pushy about throwing the ball for them or getting attention. Probably would be a shadow around the house.

I like your videos very much! I'll try to perform the same test when choosing a puppy for myself. The only thing that I can't see is the touch sensitivity part. Why don't you perform it? I didn't understand it quite well when I read the description, so I would really like to see how to perform it correctly.

@movchtube We don't record the touch test because there isn't much to see. You couldn't tell how to do it or what we are watching for by seeing the video. I'd recommend you hire a trainer to test your puppies for you because the test needs to be evaluated by someone who understands the test. Or you could find a breeder or trainer who does this test and apprentice under them until you understood it fully. Good luck!

@SafariDoodles "The tests are simple to perform and anyone with some common sense can do them." This is what people, whose test you use, say.

@movchtube Yes, the test is simple to do, but not always simple to understand the results... when you test a litter of puppies, you quickly will find out that often the puppies give a reaction that isn't an option on the test. Good luck and have fun!
