Partner, kids, etc. Is everyone on-board for a new puppy?
Talk me about your other pets! Species, ages- anything you think I should know that will help me match your household to a puppy.
Talk to me about how your current pets fit into your lifestyle or if this is your first pet, how you imagine it will be. What sort of shared activities do you enjoy with your dog? Who will let your puppy out during lunch? Who watches them when you are away from home?
Describe desired energy level by describing your lifestyle
i.e.
I take two daily walks and imagine a dog happy to accompany me
I regularly compete in various dog sports as a weekend warrior and want an eager partner
I have a large fenced-in yard where the dog can run and play fetch to their heart's content
Keep in mind these puppies will be high-medium energy until 2 years old and then become medium-low with maturity
