Thanks for posting those! I have to say that even though I did not know about the test, I did most of thse things while playing with puppies I was choosing. The one that most readily correlates with the test is Ben. He is, and probably always will be, dominant. It makes him a little more on the stubborn side, and he had to learn that he could be dominant with the canine family members but not the human, but it also makes him a very entertaining pet. Rocky was one of Ben's pups so there was no testing him, but he also displays the dominant qualities. Clap for him and he comes running and jumps on your hands. I had to teach him not to bite so hard when he played, and he still is much too agressive at times. He is a ball of fire and knows no "medium speed." He will display most of the dominant qualities in the tests. It has been interesting seeing him and his dad together. Ben still rules the roost, but I can see Rocky pushing a little more here and there. We'll see where this ends up, hopefully it will stay as amicable as it has so far. |
