I am trying to fall in love with another one equally so I won't be disappointed.. I do think they are all cute and we will be happy with any of them, but man oh man

[Lisa, Daisy & Dexter]

So darn cute, whichever you choose!

[Lisa, Daisy & Dexter]

Daisy's eyes were gunky until she was like 6 months, I brought a warm wash cloth to her crate every morning to clean her up, Vet said it was perfectly normal and would stop at around 6 months...they did. Now that being said I am not sure what runny eyes means.

[Adina P]

Oh I'm still with green :-D  But I'm partial to the less curly coats, though I do like Red Ribbon's head shape.
I would want more info on their personalities other than 'sweet' only because 'sweet' is not the opposite of 'alpha' - and some dogs are more dominant in personality toward other dogs but not that way toward people.  It will be very neat to hear more as they develop more.

[Jennifer and Jack]

I just posted their full temperament testing .. I added it to the original post. Now whatcha think??

[Jennifer and Jack]

Red girl is our first choice if her temeperament is not as alpha as the first person who is not  a trainer said, otherwise we will take yellow girl because she was dubbed the sweetest. Girl girl was in the middle. Lord have we driven our poor breeder crazy, We will know for sure which one is ours by Saturday when the first person choses.

[Bonnie and Kona]

With the temperament recommendations I'm for the yellow all the way. Each one is cuter than the next so go for sweetness!

[F, Calla & Luca]

Still green girl for me--gorgeous coat but red does have an adorable face : )

[Jennifer and Jack]
