So I've only had Zulu for 8 months but I already know I want another spoo! I have to wait for at least another year or so but I was hoping to get your guys help. I've been reading posts and trying to partially solidify what I want to look for and I'm hoping to avoid the spontinaity that I got zu with. So please tell me if this is reasonable if you would look for something diff and if you know of a breeder who might fit
all health testing
temperment testing done correctly (I know there is no garentee for this but it does give some good info)
a dark dog (black, blue, brown) or white
no cream apricot of red (sorry guys just not my thing)
high prey/play drive
I want to do agility and love to train
strong retrieve (borderline ball ocd would be great!)
good coat and comformation
would consider showing if breeder would mentor
therapy dog delta and possibly hope aacr
very person motivated
some of this comes from what Zulu is not ( not a strong retrive very dog motivated strangers are ignored (not great for therapy) she is good to train but not overly motivated for it.) don't get me wrong I LOVE her to little bits!!! But there are a few things I'd like to have researched a bit better prior to getting her....
