That´s a very good idea - Without proof you´ll never know - and you don´t know if other people interpret "temperament" the same as you do.
In case this puppy really shows the drive you want to see, I´d go for it, otherwise I´d go with the female you mentioned in your last post ( the adventurous one - but keep in mind, she might become very independently ).
For me my gut ( followed by my eyes ) always made the decision, never used my brain that much...

and independent pup may turn out to be a little TOO
daredevil and full of herself - an accident waiting to
happen ? Got a good Vet. lined up ?

It´s always about the personal goals.

Bubba. I agree. Susie, you are right BUT there
is always the chance that the fall, or the run into some
danger occurs before you have trained for that situation;
you cannot cram all life lessons into the first month while
the puppy is still on it's "invisible elastic".

I have had this happen. My husband at the time and I went to pick out a pup the breeder had picked out for him (a male) for sport. We ended up with 2, a male and female. He was drawn to the female.
The plan was I was going to work the male and he the female. That plan was changed on the 10 hour drive home. The pups picked who they wanted. The female kept landing in my lap, the male in his. There was no point in fighting that.

When I went to pick out my first (in forty years) German Shepherd Dog, I wasn't looking for a dark sable puppy. I went to buy a black one. I soon found out color wasn't everything. Primarily, it was temperament and attitude that became everything to me at that moment in time when I saw the ONE. Sarge came prancing out of the dog house with his little self-assured self, and it was love at first sight for me. He came over to me (not the other four other people in the area he'd not seen before). I forgot all about the black pup. I have never regretted picking out my dark sable, feisty German Shepherd Dog I call Sarge. I would go with my gut feelings. It appears this puppy has chosen you too!
