Wanna help me choose the puppy?

The breeder just sent me the pictures of the two puppies that i'm choosing from this Saturday. I know that the pictures doesn't tell much other than the fact that they both are peeing on the carpet lol :p

The breeder told me that DN205 is a more hyper one. I don't know if the hyper one is suitable for us or not. We are married with no kids yet. Our goal for this puppy is just to be a companion. I want him involve in sports like agility and SchH if he can though. Here is the pedigree on dam and sire:

Shaman von Schwarzachgrund
Cherise vom Tal Der Schatten

can't tell a thing from photos! :) :) :)

Puppy is from 2 untitled parents, 3/4 German showlines and 1/4 working lines.....

Dice are not stacked that he will enjoy doing schutzhund - all puppies will play to some extent with the helper, and can be trained in basic ob and tracking with time and dedication, but for the long haul, I think if you wanted to do sport, you should have chosen a puppy bred for the sport...I would think this breeder is targeting companion homes....

Lucky for me my Kaos only had 1 or two carpet accidents. But pic #2 looks exactly like him when he was a puppy.....

I got another picture. We are picking him up tomorrow morning. Any suggestion would be appreciated :)

I would explain to the breeder exactly what you're looking for in your puppy and see which one he or she recommends and why. If he/she is letting you choose then it sounds like you don't have to take the recommendation but it would still be valuable information imo. Good luck and keep posting pics :)

We went with a left one. The other one is nipping and super hyper. We tested both of them with a few things. We hand them a toy and see how they react. We looked at how the play with each other. We shake a set of key over their head to see their reactions. We decided the hyper one is not really for us. So we pick him up, did the paper work, put a collar with his tag "Lincoln" on him and head home. His first car ride was so much better than I expected. 6 Hours drive accident free! My husband and I are both brand new pet owner so we are a little worried we won't do a good job. But he can be sure that he will be loved and taken care of. After a year of planning and researching... we finally found our puppy :)
