Bindi & Barny's 2005 Litter

Each day Red-Dawn puppies are individually obedience & clicker & agility trained, played with, handled, socialized, crate trained and potty trained. Stimulating their mind at a young age helps ensure our puppies grow up to be very well rounded adults. Starting at 6 weeks old we spend time each day documenting each pup's development. You'll see the below Temperament Test scores for "Orange Boy" showing his individual personality.

"Orange Boy" is one happy guy!. He's curious and silly, but VERY focused on people and prefers people and affection over any thing else. Snuggling and kissing are 2 favorites. He's also interested in playing tug & retrieve, but if given a choice, he prefers affection. Quite alert and attentive to all people. Orange can make a good companion in any home. He's also a great candidate for conformation showing.

Our pups are Temperament tested at 6 weeks as recommended by the authorities by a professional dog trainer. Using the results ensures you pick a pup with the right temperament for you. Below are "Orange Boy's" scores
