How would you decide? We went to go choose which puppy out of two from the breeder last night and we CAN NOT decide. How did you choose if you had a choice. One is a little skinnier and seems to be the calmer of the two. BUT he cried the whole time we held him. The breeder said he wants to be with his brother all the time. The other is a little chubbier and seems like the bully, more active : ) we need help...can you help us? |

Honestly I picked by their personality and how they interacted with me. |
If it is me, I will pick the one that like to cry because the personality is more like myself although I do find puppy that bullies are very cute. |
Blaze has a brother and when we went to visit them Blaze was always full of energy and wanted you to pick him up or play w/him. He was a ball of fun where his brother was timid and way more laid back. Almost nervous it seemed. So we took Blaze and have since met the family who took his brother (Cody) and he is still very much nervous and timid. Blaze has spunk and personality and loves to play yet he is not hyper and loves to cuddle! His brother is smaller and shorter but I would not trade size over personality any day! Good luck (and if you really cant choose - take both!:p:aimeeyork:aimeeyork) |
Actually my Husbands best friend is most likely going to buy the other one, so they can see each other all the time. They both interacted with us well. They cried a little, but one was just more active than the other, more fiesty. But the breeder said that could change. I usually go for the underdog, but I am so stressed on which one to pick!!! |
Here's how I would chose...I let puppy chose me. Sit on the floor...and see which puppy comes to you. :) I will say from the personality descriptions...I already know which one I'd chose...the fiesty pup. |
Also remember once that timid pup is away from the bully he will blossom. Zoey was buddies with a more mischevious and dominant female. She was a bit quiet when we got her. Now four months later she is something else. |
I had almost the same thing and I chose the timid one... she was the calmer/quieter of the two..and shes such a snugglebug now , and she still loves to play...I adore her! Shes also the one that only wanted to play with me...totally bonded to me...so maybe she chose me... |
Gut instint I would say because their personality together is different and will develop when they are apart. Buddy wanted nothing to do with me the day I saw him. He just wanted my granddaughter, who was three and then wanted back in his crate where he felt secure. He didn't like being held and was nervous. That didn't stop me at all. There was a sadness in his eyes I thought, so I bought him and could not ask for a better more outgoing personality. He is joined at my hip now:p They blossom with confident when loved and feel secure. Good luck. |

If it helps the chubbier of my 2 ended up being sooo tiny at 5lbs full grown and the smaller is about 9lbs full grown! haha |
When I went to see Jamie and his brother, they were both pretty wild little rascals. They were doing tiny puppy zoomies around the living room. I decided on Jamie because he seemed like the calmer of the 2 and thats what I needed as a first time puppy owner. I've never met them but god bless the people who got his brother because if he still has more energy than Jamie I feel for them. Even though he's soon to be 1, Jamie is still very go go go. He never lays down and rests, he just runs and jumps until he crashes. Of course he is my baby and I feel like he and I were just meant to be that day. So just hold them both and look in their eyes and you'll be able to tell which one is your baby... unless they're both meant for you :eek: |
I prefered one and my husband prefered the other. So I dont' know. This is making it worse! :D |
I think the person who is going to take care of the puppy the most gets to pick :D |
Are they from Susan? I would pick the one that is a little more active. I usually go for the calmer one but if you are only going to have one the one that cries a lot may have seperation anxiety when taken from his litter mates. |
Love at first sight :wub: I had been searching via internet for months and months... of course all the one's I looked at were adorable... However, one day I saw an ad for a local breeder w/ a pic of Meka and I just knew! I printed it out and took to DH...and told him THIS IS MY DOG! Needless to say 2 days later we went an picked her up. Honestly it didnt matter her temperment at the time.... I knew that little face was ment for me :) Good luck :D |
2 Attachment(s) Can you tell the difference between the two? |
I had first pick of 3 little boys. We thought we wanted the big one but asked if we could come back in a few days. When we came back the little one kept coming to the side of the pen to stick his paw under and trying to play with us. That was my Ozzy :D My sweet little outgoing bundle of love :love: I would go for the fiesty one :) |

There both cute but after seeing their pics the one in the second picture would be my choice. Ilike his face |
I like number 2 also.. so cute! |
THE 2 I HAD A CHOICE WITH WERE one was more active and barked alot was a little smaller i went with was ziggy , doesnt bark and still plays just not over agressive. he was a little bigger and ofcourse because was bigger was cheaper by 250.00 but i would have paid more if i thoguht he would have had a better demeanor than what i have now |
I picked the more out going one, when I went to choose, and I love my choice! Meeko is a little ball of energy. I love how he isn't scared or nervous around strangers or dogs. If the first one was crying when you picked him up, I'd think it might be very rough the first week or so till he gets use to being alone. Meeko didn't cry at all when we got him. He was great being home with me. It's good that they'll still be able to see each other tho! As far as their size, it's too soon to know which one will be chubbier or skinnier. It's all up to their new mommy to exercise them enough to burn their food. Good luck!!! Can't wait to see pics! |
I know. I just will feel bad for either one I don't choose. Even though I know they don't care. |
LOL! #1 looks like the bully and # 2 looks like the shy baby. Am I right? |
yes you are right! |
Well this made it worse : ) My husband and I call each other every 10 minutes asking if the other decided. I would rather have her just choose for us! :animal36 |
I like the looks of #2 |
That's the lover! ;) We called him that and the other one the fighter, because he seemed like the tougher one. |
I think number 2 could turn into a really sweet cuddle bear but he IS probably going to whine alot at first (especially if you are leaving him to go to work for a couple of weeks). Number 1 is probably going to be more independant and would be better about being alone. He has a set to his jaw that says "don't mess with me". LOL! I think they are both cute, so it just depends on what personality you're looking for. |
I bought the calm one out of the bunch! Puppies have so much energy as it is, I didn't want an obnoxious dog, sure they may calm down but I didn't wanna risk it. But I'm sure either would be great! |
