At 7 weeks old, we complete temperament testing, following the BAB guidelines. All results are sent to families on the reservation list, and we then, in order reservations have been received, begin puppy selections.
We are testing for:
- Assertiveness
- Confidence
- Motivation Level
- Nerve Strength/Resiliency
- Touch Tolerance
- Energy Level
- Sound Sensitivity
- Sight Sensitivity
- Prey Drive
- Human Focus
- Tenderhearted
- Dog Friendliness
"Puppies are raised to believe in themselves and be the best they can be through guiding emotional responses, meeting their innate needs in order, building confidence through intentional and purposeful curriculum and handling that aligns to their sensitive developmental benchmarks and lastly evaluating each puppy prior to placement to ensure their voice is heard and they are honored and respected not only with their breeder but with their new human as well.
Empowering breeders to be able to stand in their own space and run their programs as a professional will change the face of breeding. By aligning breeders by a common code of ethics we will rise together. A beautiful thing is happening, breeders are acknowledging their worth and power to create dogs that heal hearts and change lives. And in doing so, the public is taking notice at our unity, our standards and our passion." - Jeanette Forrey, founder of the Badass Breeder Program.
