GENERAL NOTES:
This puppy is a calm and quiet thinker. He takes a great deal of processing time when learning. This puppy does not like to do things quickly and doesn't want to be pushed to do them before he is ready. This puppy will not want to be confused.

He will also require a patient owner who understands his need to think before making a decision. This puppy will be a sweet lover and very devoted to his family. He will want a family who is not energetic or impatient... or someone who's gotta go, go, go. This puppy will give you his whole heart and deep, loving soul if you take the time he needs to understand him. He won't want for much, but acceptance, understanding, and patience. This puppy is highly intelligent, but his emotions will not be outward. He will not open up to just anyone. This puppy will be discerning in his friendships. He will be a quiet puppy, but may complain when he needs something. He will seek to communicate with humans, but may give up if the human isn't aware of his efforts. Therefore, a person who is aware and attentive to him as a puppy will be important. This puppy will be nonchalant and mind his own business around other dogs, cats, and children. He will not be highly food motivated and may take convincing to enjoy doing things at a quicker pace. A sweet, loving puppy for a gentle, loving family.
