Well, Becca and I are adopting this beautiful dog this afternoon. We picked her out Saturday and they had to send her through a temperment test to see how she would react and look for anything to be "concerned" about. Anyways all went well and we get her tonight.
In the 90 minutes we spent with her on Sat. I noticed these thing a few things... One, shes very calm and very open to other dogs. Two, shes VERY attentive, but that is expected. And three, I believe her to be ahead of her class in the smarts area... from playing with her and her trying to not let us leave, and of course the escape artist in her showed up as we tried to leave and she tried to grab and forcibly open the gate(she almost did it too) with her paws. She is also an Alpha Female, as she keeps her tail hung high.
