TIKO (TabanyaRuu Valio)
TabanyaRuu Peppi x Fin Ch Cantavia Leijonamieli

Tiko aged 2.5 years.

I just had to co-own a male puppy from this special mating and Tiko was the most perfect puppy ever! Tiko's registered name 'Valio' was in honour of his Maternal Great Grandad Sulyka Valio 'is' Curdeleon, another stunning black tan and white dog that sadly died before his time and before CC's came in.  With the sweetest nature and stunning looks, what could go wrong?  Sadly Tiko's second testicle never descended so he was neutered.  Such a shame as he won numerous best puppy awards and I'm sure would have gone on to great things.  He is not only a much loved pet with Pam and family, he is also an absolute whiz at obedience and attends several classes a week with Pam.
