Mira is truly a breath of fresh air in our family. Lots of speed, joy, sense of humor, energy and passion. At the same time, she has a soft mind, and is easily learned. The first thing we spotted with her was her amazing ability for contact and cooperation. She definitely has an ”on/off button”. Right now as I’m trying to best describe her, she just turned one year old, she has been trained in retrieving, both on land and in water. Mira works very spontaneously, she is quick and has a soft and firm grip with game. She uses her nose and the wind efficiently, and has shown a great skill of marking. Mira is always eager to work with me, and she’s a sheer joy to spend time with.
Our goals and ambitions with Mira
At the age of 12 months, Mira completed the Swedish Behaviour and Personality description test (BPH) with satisfying results and the describer’s summary words ”What a lovely little pearl. You must be really proud of her”. She has also completed the Swedish Functional Description for Retrievers (FB-R) arranged by The Swedish Spaniel & Retriever Club, also with very satisfactory results.
Mira got to demonstrate her motherlike qualities when she, at the age of 10 months, became the nanny to eleven energetic puppies in the ”Opera litter” of 2018. She went all-in on that mission and she impressed greatly with her maturity.
In 2018, despite her young age, Mira debuted in a Cold Game Retriever Test in Beginner’s class, which resulted in a 3rd price and very nice reviews. Later that fall we achieved a 1st price at the Golden Retriever Club’s Autumn Working Test 2018. We’re preparing for an obedience debut in a near future.
