I go for the spritely one with the laughing eyes, wagging tail and compulsion to meet and jump up at you. That is a sign of a healthy and energetic pup.

If you look at a litter of 4-5 dogs and all of them are running away and barking at you, do not get a pup from this litter. You will have problems with a dog from this kind of litter and he might get aggressive or exhibit aggressive behaviour to strangers.

Look for good signs in a pup, such as walking around and inspecting you, nipping playfully at your heels, playing with your outstretched hand, etc. Also, they should be curious, trusting and sociable.

The strong bossy puppy will need a firm hand when it grows up. On the other hand, the quiet and submissive one will need a patient gentle owner who will be guiding it to be a great dog when it grows up.
