Just like people, individual pups are all individuals too! They have a massive range of likes and dislikes, temperaments and personalities.
While purebreds may have specific breed characteristics that mark them as characteristic of their breed, this still allows for exceptions and a wide variant of personalities. No two pups are ever going to be the same!
So for example, Golden Retrievers like this pup here may be sweethearts who absolutely love people, but it doesn’t mean that they’ll like being picked up and/or cuddled! This poor pup clearly isn’t too fond of being cuddled, and would much rather be put back down on the floor where he’s most comfortable. Poor baby!
Favourite foods, the best places to be petted, general personality… As good Moms and Dads, it’s essential we get down onto our hands and knees and get to know our pups personally. Your relationship with them will be all the better for it!
