Embracing Your Uniqueness ~Psalm 139:14
“I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Your works are wonderful; I know that full well.”
Temperament testing is conducted at 7 1/2 weeks to ensure that we find the perfect match for every puppy and family. We believe it is essential for each puppy to be placed in the right home, and by waiting until the 7th week, we can assess their traits more accurately. This careful consideration gives our puppies and our clients the best chance for a harmonious and successful bond. Each temperament uniquely fits different environments, and with the right care and training, many can thrive beyond challenges.
At Sac River GoldenDoodles & BerneDoodles, we utilize the Empowered Breeder temperament test created by Jeanette Forrey at 4EKennels, recognizing how crucial this process is. It’s not just about matching preferences; it’s about understanding the deeper needs of each family. If you have small children, certain temperaments shine in their presence. For those facing anxiety or depression, or with family members who experience meltdowns, choosing the right dog can make all the difference. The energy levels of dogs vary—whether you’re seeking a companion for evening runs or a cozy friend for quiet nights in, we pave the way for a mindful choice.
Our commitment stems from a belief that many dogs end up in shelters because their adopters didn’t fully understand their needs or temperaments. We strive to prevent this by taking every precaution possible. Every dog is extraordinary and deserves to be honored and respected for who they truly are.
