Feminine puppy with a feminine demeanor.   Active in the nest, visiting every puppy sibling before choosing one to sleep on.   grunts and sings while she eats.  Temp tests were fantastic. Little pup took everything in stride.  Leaned into me for most everything. Unbothered by change in environment, Bobbed head around till she found mom when placed back in the nest .  Nice body and head.

Delilah is a gregarious puppy, sure that joy and people are synonimous. She is quite intelligent and will need to use that intelligence to keep it from getting away from her. She is a feminine looking dog, and will probably have her moms features. The tests were done in two groups, two days apart.  Delilah was the last one tested, and perhaps it was because it was fresh in my mind, the pups shared their experience? I dunno. But she seems to know what I was going to do before I did it. The roll over was fine with her as it gave her the opportunity to engage play.  Same with restraint exercises of holding her. She is fond of usinig her mouth on skin. Effort goes into interfering with this habit with a dog like Delilah.  As a side effect she gets hand attention than the others.  A joyful happy little puppy, she has a higher back end.  Her coat will be ideal.

Gregarious is the best word I can find to describe this lil pup.  And little is not exactly correct either. She will be tall, proportionately heavy with a medium coat.  Temp tests were a blast. Shes curious about everything and engaged in everything.  Accepting and tolerant of all handling. Doesn't mind restraint.  Eye contact is a big deal for her.   Not so much eager to please as she is eager to communicate.  A thinker and a problem solver.   Intelligent and focused. Will need plenty to do in her adult life to thrive.
