Tuzak turned out to be quite a sweetie ... most of the time. Filled with self-confidence (nothing seems to bother him), he takes everything in his stride but with a touch of seriousness. Tuzak is also the most destructive dog I have ever had, and cannot be trusted with anything, even metal buckets, unless they are firmly attached to something immovable. Sometimes, even this doesn't work because he once removed the 8-quart bucket from the handle!

Tuzak bagan his show career at six months of age, and picked up his first 3-point win on his first weekend out, capably shown by co-owner/co-breeder Gilda Goldberg. Juggling a busy schedule and Tuzak's blowing coat has not been easy, and Tuzak continues to sit on the 9 points earned by the conclusion of his next show weekend at 1 1/2 years old. He has not been in the ring since. We will have to make a concentrated effort to get this lovely boy out for his last point; he deserves it.
