This Pre-Adoption application asks questions to help you and Abba's Shilohs decide if a Shiloh Shepherd is the right breed for you. It will help us to select the right puppy for you. We observe the puppies' behaviors, personalities and temperaments. The information on this form helps us to get to know a little bit about you. We urge you to be very honest with us about yourself and your home life, as the main goal is to find suitable homes for our puppies. One puppy may be perfect in a busy household, while another may panic and need a quiet home. Shiloh Shepherds truly have their own personalities.
