BIRTH NOTES:

Puppy #5 - 1:07 am, 15 5/8 lbs. female, she had a little fluid in her lungs, but not much, head first in the sack,

GENERAL NOTES:

This puppy seems to be self-assured, but also not very energetic. She is very laid-back, calm, and quiet. This puppy is not a playful spirit, but more on the serious side of life. However, she has a calm, gentle boldness to her temperament that allows her to remain quite unassuming and often looked over. She sleeps a lot and doesn't always seek out human attention or affection at this time, like a few of her brothers do. This puppy is highly intelligent and inquisitive, but in a calming quiet way. She is not bold or outgoing, but neither is she fearful or shy. This puppy is the perfect combination of quietly aloof. This puppy will not be clingy, but neither will she have a tendency to be independent. She will not be super motivated by food or play, but she will want to watch the world with her favorite people. This puppy will benefit from experiences that give her an ability to learn more about the world, even if she is more content as a home body without need for environmental stimulation. This puppy is super chill and laid back. She doesn't require a lot of play time. So, motivation experiences could be good for her, within reasonable limits so that she doesn't expect to have to always go out of her comfort zone. What a beautiful temperament she has. She could curl up in her shell and be a home body, content to live with her family. So a family who challenges her to get out of her happy home and explore the outside world a bit would be good for her. She is a quiet observer. Just like her brother Junior, although without the lack of confidence he shows from time to time, she will learn by watching. She doesn't need to interact to understand. She simply needs to watch others and learn from their example. This puppy is not going to want to repeat exercises over and over again for no reason. When she has it, she will not forget it. Repetition will seem mundane and boring for her. This is a great American Dirus™ dog temperament for a family who loves to snuggle by the fire with a good book.
