Note: The "mask" refers to the black coloration on the muzzle. This comes from Erza. As a puppy, she had an entirely black muzzle, but this significantly lightened and receded within the first year.
Temperament Prediction
Temperament of puppies should be pretty typical for a northern breed, with some potential, slight deviations.
- Should be mostly independent, capable and willing to do their own thing, not underfoot.
- Most/all of the puppies should have high interest in their people, should be snuggly and willing to cuddle.
- Some puppies may have more handler focus, sticking with handler and more reliable with recall and more aware of where the handler is.
- May be a bit shy of strangers at first.
- Should be great with children.
- Some puppies may be more submissive/sensitive.
- May have a longer or later fear stage where they react unusually or seem afraid of things that didnt bother them prior. This stage is normal and is the puppies becoming more aware of their surroundings.
- Some puppies may have little to no interest in other dogs.
- Most puppies should have a prey drive standard in northern breeds, being generally unreliable around small animals like rodents and birds/poultry. Some puppies may have a higher than average prey drive, with interest in larger "game" animals, like goats and pigs.
- Should be intelligent, eager to please and easier to train than a typical northern breed.
- Should have exceptional sense of smell, paired with their prey drive and determination should offer good opportunity for barnhunt or other scentwork.
