Picking the dog.

My main criteria for my next dog are as follows:

2-5 Years old
Toller
Male
Gets along with Moxie
Smart
Well-behaved

I learn more about the dogs that are offered to me by asking questions of the breeders, such as is the dog alpha? Moxie is an alpha female and can be a bit of a pest around other dogs so making sure they get along is very important to me.

I have 2 dogs left that I am considering and I am leaning strongly towards a male that I would pick up in less than a month.
Before I get the dog I must make sure that all of his paperwork will be in order, that I talk to the office of disability services.

Moxie is accepted into the college as a full fledged service dog. But what about a service dog in training? Will Moxie have to go stay with my parents for a week?
