Meet Nico!
We have made the difficult decision to retire Nico from our Breeding Program, and I am going to be very picky on where Nico goes. I am looking for a permanent home for the remainder of his life. While a pet home is ideal, I would also consider a junior showmanship home with the understanding he will live there permanently.
Nico is a 6 year old Basset Fauve de Bretagne that was imported from Ireland when he was 3 yrs old. He is a show MACHINE and loves to be the center of attention! Nico received a Best In Open Show at Royal Canin on only his 2nd weekend out showing. He also has achieved 5 Certificates of Merit (championships for FSS breeds) during the 6 months he was shown. After a couple years off from the ring, Nico recently participated in AKC Meet the Breed in NYC and was a huge favorite of all those meeting the breed for the first time.
Nico is a POAG Carrier, OFA Hips Excellent, Cardiac Normal, Patellas Normal and CAER Clear and Current. He is fully vaccinated and recently had an exemplary vet exam.
For a pet home he would LOVE to be an only dog or with a female dog that is larger than he is. He loves the bigger ladies! He is fabulously crate trained, leash broken, and wonderful in the car. Nico does love to run along the fence when a car goes by, and barking to let them know he's there. He needs a fenced yard and/or to be walked on a leash.
