Gjerulff A True Passion Of Art
aka. Passion
Passion lives in Jylland with Allan and Susanne Randeris, and is Allan's agility dog. Passion lives with Mystique, who I own with Susanne.
Passion is from Cider and Kas (from Slovenia). Passion is a good mix of her mother and father, happy and active dog, can play all day, but is also a great family dog :) A super energy and wants to work!
As a puppy, she was THE puppy I really wanted to keep! Allan was incredibly lucky that it was a bad time for me to keep a puppy, because I had a hard time letting her go. She just had a very special way of facing the world!
A lot of courage, there was only one way, and that was FORWARD!
She saw no limitations, was incredibly independent, yet super attentive and loved the human contact just as much as she curiously went her own ways! She wasn't afraid of anything, but still didn't jump headless in to new things either, but looked up, and then jumped into the world in a well-considered way! She had a wild toy drive and could easily switch between treats and toys, and was incredibly focused on you when training, even if her sister or other dogs around her were playing!
Already as a puppy she got many praises for her build, and she still has a body built for speed! She lives with a lot of border collies, and loves to run and give it all she has in the field with them! She loves to play with their puppies when they have litters, and just has a great temperament all the way through!
2023:
Passion has not trained as much agility as both she and Allan would have liked. Buying a house, corona and a new job put a pause on everything. I was happy to borrow Passion home for a little training camp in 2021, to assess her before I made breeding plans.
.....AND I fell in love immediately, almost no training, and she just understood agility immediately! Worked focused and with high intensity, but WITHOUT over stressing and getting too high driven to listen and follow. She is just as easy to handle as her mother, just with a little more power!
She jumped into everything I offered her with high energy, and was just happy to work, and figured out what I wanted from her incredibly quickly!
She has not learned slalom, and the contacts yet, they can be done but is not finally finished. But she can easily run full sequences, is fully focused, only see the handler when they are on the field! She can/will train with anyone who has treats, and generally loves everything and everyone! Passion has started a few competitions, where Allan was completely blown away by how easy she is to have along! She is just happy, with inner peace and relaxed around the course, and in the starting area, and when she gets on the course, she is ready and fully focused on him!
She is seriously the easiest dog to live with, even if she enters a new and large pack of dogs, and with 2 active and noisy children! She is just so relaxed and happy here!
She is the best family dog at Allan's house to, she has a very special bond with their son, and they have a lot of fun together! She has functioned well as a family dog, and has not run on the walls after reducing the activity level. However, she is in dreamland when they go to training, and there is no doubt that she absolutely loves to work!
She has never been injured or sick in anyway, even though she runs wild and ccrazy in the fields with border collies. She is not a soft dog, but she is not to independent either, and always chooses cooperation over her own ways!
She is just uncomplicated and sweet, but at the same time she has a fantastic work ethic when you ask for it! She is still the dog I regretted I let go ;)
And I just have to keep something after her too, male or female, it doesen't, I simply do not want to lose that temperament, and hope to be able to keep more of it in my lines!
