About Stirnir
Stirnir is my "heart" dog, he has proven himself in trials and in the house. He is extremely versatile, biddable and has an excellent off-switch. He has a medium-low prey drive, a high toy drive, and a HIGH food drive. Stirnir is a UKC & AKC champion with points to his grand in both venues. He's produced champions in past litters with solid temperaments.
