Nick is interesting - his personality interests me the most.
- He has desire, ability, intelligence and gives 110% to anything he does.
- He has made judges giggle at his enthusiasm and playfulness while at work yet is intense on his job.
- He is an excellent companion at home in the house or teaching puppies to play or swim.
- He has endless energy to work with high intensity that is hard to find in goldens.
- He is very loving, expressive and entertaining.
C -
is for Courage - Nick fears nothing. Rough terrain, big water, big marks,
or tough blinds!
- He has been owner trained with help in field from Cliff and Helen Romain (breeder) and Bill and Kim Moses.
- He resides at Hunters Marsh Training Kennel with owner Evaretta Tibbs.
- When the work is the toughest he does his best.
K -
a kick. Nick is definitely a hoot!
- Early in training he saw every mark at 300 yards.
- He pounces marks like a cat with prey.
- He has a style all his own. When being sent on multiple marks he will return, and go down on his front, rear in the air, eyes intense on his mark... looking like a racer taking off from a chute.
- He always runs "full out" no matter what the terrain.
Nick is 2 1/2 yrs now (Nov 2001) and his best work is yet to come! His attitude and ability excites me and I look forward to being by his side. He is my first field dog and has made the experience phenomenal.
Watch for his accomplishments in the next 2 years. Thank you to Cliff and Helen Romain, as well as "Ruby", Lorie [Jolly], and Mr. Speaker for the chance to work with such a talented, enjoyable and complete companion. I have worked with a variety of dogs in 40 years but Nick puts the "gold" in Golden. He defines the standard of a true Golden.
