My grandpa always had a old wise saying about black being on the top of the pups mouth. Can't remember and does anybody know what it is.

there is alot of these: roof of the mouth black, 3 wiskers under chin, large smart knot, 1st pup to get out of the box, the runt is best, and so on. I always look at the mouth and wiskers, and go from there. I don't know if there is anything to but so far it has worked pretty good. Thanks DAD and GRANDPA!

I think the old saying, "Before you can train a pup, you have to know more than the pup." is usually more appropriate. Tom

Old timer told me once pick the pup with the biggest butthole he'll make the best dog, he's always got a nice hound with a giant turd cutter so maybe there's something to it lol

Dark eyes, dark pads, dark nails, dark roof, big A hole, smart knot, whiskers...man my dog has it all, unfortunately it's just the opposite for myself, so I must assume its my fault that she is not living up to her full potential!!!
