Great question! The short answer is let the owner tell you! This is also an opportunity to gauge whether or not you’re comfortable with the dog, and can give it the care and attention it needs when it’s away from its owner.
We recommend questions such as:
- Can you describe your dog’s personality?
- Are they food aggressive?
- Do they have any health concerns I should be aware of?
- Are they food or play motivated?
- What are the dog’s favorite activities?
- What is their energy level? (Couch potato vs. marathon runner)
