Fiyero means ’wild’ in Spanish and ’proud’ in Italian. The name is coming from one of the characters in the musical Wicked, since Fiyero is born in the musical litter. He is son of Norwegian and Swedish FTCh and Eng. FT Winner Jacklaine’s Cornelius Sky and Beaworthy Avery.

Fiyero is a stately male dog with a lot of grace in both posture and movement. He has the sparkle in his eye and is easy to learn new things, mainly because of his curiosity and because he thinks everything is fun.

At work Fiyero is both compliant and independent in a nice combination. He is calm and quiet in passivity and maintains high but controlled speed at work. He works efficiently with his nose and has very good endurance in the search, has good marking ability and is good at being directed, despite directions and obstacles. In general, he has a strong interest in collaboration and I look forward to continuing to work with him.

We are currently working on retrieving, obedience and human search. Fiyero has passed the mental test BPH which showed what we had expected – a comfortable, social, playful and curious dog. He started his first Cold Game Trial where he achieved 1st prize in Beginner class with great reviews from the judge:

”A dog who performs today’s tests in a very appealing way. Very great desire to retrieve with fast and fine deliveries with a soft grip. He is an excellent marker on both land and water. Well in hand, and works in very good contact with his handler. Does an excellent search with great energy and he quickly finds all the game. Very well used nose. Nicely handled!”

Fiyero is currently training on an Open Class level, is a very responsive and controllable retriever and works fine simultaneously with other dogs at work.
