If you can think of anything on a more personal note that you'd like to add to this, I'd love to hear it. The idea behind these questions is that knowing the pups temperaments from day one, I may see different things in them than you would as a stranger attempting to pick one, and may be able to guide you towards a puppy which realistically suits your experience, needs and goals. Further we want to assure that the home we are sending one of our puppies to is going to provide adequate (or better!) care for that puppy throughout it's life. If you would like to add anything else about your family, pets, ect., or if you have any questions for me please do so below or on reverse side.
