Tonja's
Dogs: Nikki
Ravenwolf Thunder Heart
Nikki is a Borzoi. This breed was originally bred in Russia. Their job is to hunt wolves, and other large game, by running them down. They are known for a very sweet, soft temperament with people, and an aloof attitude toward strangers. It is very easy to over correct this kind of disposition such as to ruin their desire to perform, or even want to be near you. Because of that temperament, you seldom see a Borzoi in the obedience or agility ring.
I can show you how to work with this kind of temperament, and scores of others.

Nikki running at a field event for sight hounds. In his first 19 races, he was undefeated. Even when harassed or attacked on the field, he would ignore the aggressive opponent, and kept right on going.
Nikki easily earned his Field Championship;
and a spot in many, many human hearts.
