The best way to stack the deck in your favor:
1. Pick the parents. If you like their talent...and structure...your odds are good that a pup will be similar.
2. Pick the sex you want.
3. If there's a color preference (which may well lessen your odds of getting the performance you want...choosing based on color may rule out the best pup) then add that.
4. Just watching the pups play, are there any really funky structural abnormalities (like really toed out, toed in, etc.)? Count that pup out. But don't sweat the little stuff.
5. Close your eyes and grab one.
6. Take it home and do a good job training it.
