The seven-week old lucky charms continue to "charm" their way into people's hearts. They have been busy meeting more people and enjoying lots of outdoor time on the ranch. They were happy to meet my tracking comrades Lynn and Kristine who came out to conduct the temperament tests which help me finalize my assessments so I can place them in their "forever homes". Lynn breeds, shows, and trains her golden retrievers in tracking, search and rescue and therapy work, and Kristine owns and trains her Rottweilers in tracking. Lynn did a fabulous write up about the "temperament testing" that I like to use with my litters on her blog. It is well worth the visit to CLICK HERE to read about the guidelines of the testing. I will be sharing the results of the tests with my wonderful homes this week so they can prepare for the arrival of their beautiful little desert pup in the weeks ahead.
Some rambling pics of the five "charmkins" , my awesome "testers" Lynn and Kristine. and me (yes,I do exist:-)) helping out some friends who are "kidding" on their farm.
