From removing loose rear dew claws on day 1, keeping their pen as clean as possible, introducing the «misty method»
of paper training as soon as pups eyes are opened at 10 - 14 days, using «imprinting» daily on pups from day 3
of life, temperament tests at 5 and 7 weeks
of age and being sure the pups are well socialized to deworming, vaccinating and taking an
obscene amount of pictures and videos... there is a big difference between someone who is willing to
put the
time and effort into doing everything possible to excel at being a breeder and someone who is just trying to manage until the day the pups are picked up.
I game a lot (actually, an
obscene amount at
times), so I
put a lot
of value into comfort levels
of a headset, as it's not unheard
of playing 8 + hours at a
time when I get lucky with uninterrupted gaming sessions.
