| Rio has always had a special heart and soul. He loves his family and friends and will do anything to please his mom. He grieves when his puppies leave for new homes. While he is the pack leader, he is benevolent and takes care of everyone. Always an ebullient dog, he rejoices in the show ring when his mom is showing him. He loves agility, especially the weaves and is a smooth and considerate herding dog. Rio is extremely intelligent, possesses a beautiful expression and head detail, wonderful bone and structure and smooth flowing movement. He is a once in a lifetime dog with a big heart and a loving soul. His son GCH Fairbanks The Master’s Touch HIC earned his Championship and Grand Championship in 2010, and his daughters Sequin, Eva and Chiara are also winning at shows. Also showing and winning in Texas is Luke - owned by Marcia Bishoff. |
