Print out a copy of the Puppy Aptitude Test and score your pup.Volhard Temperment Test
These are the temperment test results.(1)~3,(2)~3(3)~4(4)~3 5)~3(6)~4(7)~1,(8)~4,(9)~3,(10)~good.
1-5 refer to the temperament section and 6-9 refer to the obedience section of the test. Stamos tested as mostly 3s and 4s. She is an easy going female, and will do well in a normal family environment.
Mostly 1's
A puppy that consistently scores a 1 in the temperament section of the test
is an extremely dominant, aggressive puppy who can easily be provoked
to bite. This puppy is high in Fight Drive. His dominant nature will
attempt to resist human leadership, thus requiring only the most
experienced of handlers. This puppy is a poor choice for most
individuals and will do best in a working situation as a guard or police
dog.
Mostly 2's
This pup is dominant and self-assured, also high in Fight Drive.
He can be provoked to bite; however he readily accepts human leadership that
is firm, consistent and knowledgeable. This is not a dog for a tentative,
indecisive individual. In the right hands, he has the potential to become
a fine working or show dog and could fit into an adult household, provided the
owners know what they are doing.
Mostly 3's
This pup is outgoing and friendly and will adjust well in situations in
which he receives regular training and exercise. High in Pack Drive, he
has a flexible temperament that adapts well to different types of environment,
provided he is handled correctly. May be too much dog for a family with
small children or an elderly couple who are sedentary.
Mostly 4's
A pup that scores a majority of 4's is an easily controlled, adaptable
puppy whose submissive nature and high Pack Drive will make him
continually look to his master for leadership. This pup is easy to train,
reliable with kids, and, though he lacks self-confidence, makes a wonderful
family pet. He is usually less outgoing than a pup scoring in the 3's, but
his demeanor is gentle and affectionate.
Mostly 5's
This is a pup who is extremely submissive, high in Flight Drive and
lacking in self-confidence. He bonds very closely with his owner and
requires regular companionship and encouragement to bring him out of himself.
If handled incorrectly, this pup will grow up very shy and fearful. For this
reason, he will do best in a predictable, structured lifestyle with owners
who are patient and not overly demanding, such as an elderly couple.
Mostly 6's
A puppy that scores 6 consistently is independent, low in Pack Drive and
uninterested in people. He will mature into a dog who is not
demonstrably affectionate and who has a low need for human companionship.
In general, it is rare to see properly socialized pups test this way; however
there are several breeds that have been bred for specific tasks (such as
basenjis, hounds, and some northern breeds) which can exhibit this level of
independence. To perform as intended, these dogs require a singularity of
purpose that is not compromised by strong attachments to their owner.
