Comments below from Todd:
Social Attraction &
Following: All were in the 3's and 2's (which is good) except Elko who was independent.  Following was good for all.

Restraint: All were in the 3's which was good except Cascade who struggled a lot.

Social Dominance: All were in the 3's and 4's (which is good) except Folsom who went exploring...

Elevation Dominance: All were very still and mostly relaxed.  They are used to being handled.

Retrieving: I was a bit disappointed about this, only two fetched but, all except Big Sandy were very interested in the balled up paper, just not ready to pick it up.  Really work on this carefully with each pup!

Touch Sensitivity: They are a pretty tough bunch, this did not seem to bother them much.

Sound Sensitivity: They are not bothered much by loud noises (which is good for NOT being gun shy!).

Sight Sensitivity: They all were interested in the cloth tied to the string and most chased it and played with it.

Stability:
We used a really big, black umbrella and it scared them a bit much.  I will not use such a large one in the future...

Feel free to call me with questions!  Todd  406-498-5236.
