[quote=Anonymous][quote]These puppies are generally taught to be mellow (they are not given attention when they act excited, etc.)[/quote] I just want to clarify that it's incorrect to say these puppies are "taught to be mellow". That's a personality trait that is sought for service dogs, you can't teach it. You can reinforce behavior by not giving attention to it - in the same way you would ignore tantrums in a child. But, you can train a high energy dog to be well behaved but you can't train him to be a mellow dog.[/quote]
