I entered Taikuri to a character test on 12 June in Haukipudas. It is originally a test developed for German Shepherds, but is suitable for all breeds from companion dogs to sighthounds. The judges were Riitta Lehmuspelto and Reijo Hynynen. I was a bit worried about the weather in advance, but luckily it turned out to be a nice, sunny day with a slight breeze keeping the army of mosquitoes at a distance. I’d say overall the test showed no major surprises. Altogether his score was 170 points and secure to shots.
