Puppy #2: 

8:16 am (male) - feet first, sack on, long tail, screamed out when umbilical cord was pinched closed,

11/7/2018:
Sat with the puppies today and noticed a few things about each of them that I wanted to share here for you.

Fozzie: This puppy is super gentle and calm. He is smart and watchful and will learn new tasks easily. He currently shows some reserved tendencies and is going through a shy period. This tells me that his confidence is lower overall than some of his siblings at this time and he will require some socialization training to keep his confidence up as he gets older. Fozzie is a go-with-the-flow kind of pup and isn't interested in taking charge or being in charge. He is easily submissive and wants to have the security to feel safe. He wears his emotions outwardly and will be extremely devoted to his family with a introverted temperament. Fozzie is a black/tan in color with light eyes. His ears will likely rise. He has a straight medium length coat is a low amount of undercoat, which will be easily managed. This puppy is a great pup, but will need a sensitive person to understand his more intuitive, emotional side.

Fozzie is excellent in companion dog temperament. He is sweet, loving, gentle, calm, and confident. Fozzie loves to be with his people and interact with family. He will be great with children, cats, and other dogs. Super kind-hearted and will only require soft corrections to change his behavior. Fozzie is a black/tan pup with small ears that will likely rise early. He is extremely smart and will learn very quickly and want to please. He is the best male in temperament for this litter and will be an excellent family companion dog. He will have the look of a beautiful large-boned, straight-backed German Shepherd Dog as an adult and you will get compliments on how awesome he is. He will easily be the best dog you have ever owned. A sweet-heart of a male with a long and happy life ahead of him. This puppy has already been DNA tested, results will be ready soon. If you are looking for a close to perfect American Alsatian Dog temperament, this puppy is it.
