| Re: Early indications of a good level of directability or willngness
As for what I look for in regards directability like others have said I look like a dog that seeks my attention straight off (seperated from the litter), is still independant enough to walk off but can be coxed back very easily. The pup will easily accept being handled and remains attentive durin. Further I like a pup that will throw behavior at you quickly. I may encourage jumping up and then stop it, I want to see the pup offer something else fast. What it is doing isn't working, try something else. I would also add that the pup must have good nerve. The character I consider the most important to get directability.
