You have been approved, and the real work begins. Over your puppy’s first eight to ten weeks, we shape them for one specific home: yours. This form is where that starts.
Answer for your everyday. Each answer maps to work we do with your puppy, so your real routine is the one worth writing down.
The process
I
Live access before they are born
You receive our public Twitch livestream, on around the clock, with daily photos and videos on Facebook. You watch personalities emerge in real time.
II
Color coded from birth
Every puppy wears its own collar color from day one, so you can follow your favorites across every update.
III
Pick order and your top three
Your deposit reserves your place and your pick order. Around two weeks, once personalities are showing on the stream, we confirm where you sit and you send us your top three puppies, ranked by collar color.
IV
We make the final match with you
From your top three and this questionnaire, we choose the puppy whose nature best fits your home, by pick order, your stated needs, and how each puppy is developing.
V
Weeks two through ten, we shape your dog
From the day your puppy is chosen, their daily curriculum is built from your answers here, week by week, pointed at your home.
VI
Home, with a head start
Your puppy arrives already introduced to the sights, sounds, animals, surfaces, and games their life with you will be full of, and we hand you the plan to continue.

Your puppy’s path
What is this dog’s main purpose in your life? ●
Pick the closest. This chooses your path, and the questions that follow are built for it.
Which type of service dog? ●
Each type starts a different curriculum from week one, so this one matters.
What tasks do you picture the dog doing?
Check any that fit, even if you are not sure yet.
Where will the dog need to work in public?
How will the dog be trained?
Will the dog need to physically support you?
This shapes the size and structure we look for.
Task trained service dogs take eighteen to twenty-four months to finish. Your puppy leaves us with the foundation built toward these tasks, and the specialized training carries on from there.
For an emotional support dog, the match matters more than anything we train. These questions are about the companionship you want from the dog. That is all we need.
What do you most want this dog to bring to your day to day? ●
Which feels closer to the dog you need?
After a long day, the right dog would
Who can pitch in on walks and feeding when life gets busy?
What matters most in your family dog? ●
Will the kids help raise and train the dog?
What will you hunt? ●
How much water work?
Will the dog need gunfire conditioning?
House dog too, or mainly field and kennel?
Your goal
A therapy dog’s job is other people. It greets strangers warmly and welcomes handling from all ages. These questions shape that from the start.

Which fits better?
What does a normal week look like? ●
Check everything that is a regular part of your world. Each one becomes a game or an exposure your puppy gets early.
How active is your household, honestly? ●
Your household
Who lives in the home? ●
Check all. Ages of children matter for how we prepare the puppy for handling and noise.
Any mobility equipment in the home?
How often do guests come through?
Other animals
What other animals will your puppy live with or around? ●
Each one triggers its own desensitization or neutrality work before your puppy ever comes home.
Your home
Where do you live? ●
Setting and noise
What will the puppy navigate at home?
Where will the puppy relieve itself? ●
We start the surface preference here so it transfers cleanly to your home.
Daily rhythm
On a normal weekday, how long will the puppy be alone? ●
Where will the puppy sleep and stay?
Training and temperament
How far do you plan to take training? ●
Your experience with dogs ●
Temperament you are drawn to ●
An honest trade. Sensitive dogs bond hard and read you closely, and they need more careful handling. Unflappable dogs are easier and a touch less attuned. We build toward your answer, within what each puppy’s nature allows.
