Every new pup starts with a trial to assess fit and comfort.
What we evaluate:
-
Calm, loose body language with people and dogs (some nerves are normal)
-
Respect for boundaries and space
-
Responsiveness to redirection and recall
-
Ability to relax during downtime (crated and free-roaming)
-
Safe, gradual socialization with different energy levels
Key focus:
-
Ability to settle after play and rest quietly (essential for daycare and overnight stays)
Perfection isn’t required—baseline behavior and willingness to learn are what matter.
