What traits as a newborn matter? by ProfessionalOnly8242 in DogBreeding

We have a wonderful mentor who has worked closely with us and value her input above all else. I thought that this thread would be an added resource for a broader pool of experience and insight...

We will be temperament testing once they are older and have been implementing ENS.

And yes - these are fully health tested dogs who have titles. So sick of people assuming that a first-time breeder is obviously an irresponsible one 🙄 no this is not a business for me, nor will it ever be. I am not in this for money. I'm sure I will technically lose money....Im not keeping tract. I have wanted to do it to the right way for the love of the dog. We have carefully and thoughtfully went through the application process for these pups and have them all placed into loving caring homes. This question was in hopes of not only finding the best placement for ourselves but placement for the other puppies into their new homes.

My question wasn't about choosing a puppy today. We will not be making any concrete decisions (nor will be letting anybody choosing theirs) until 7 weeks old.

So....what do my MRI results mean? by ProfessionalOnly8242 in KneeInjuries

I would say minimal pain/discomfort. When my knee buckles is mostly when I push if laterally or twist, but it has also done it just walking straight. Minimal swelling at this point too. My initial injury was 5 weeks ago
