Registered Name:
Erauspojan Kuujoki
Kennel Name:
"Yoki" ( aka "Smokin' Joe")
Sex:
Male
Date of Birth:
April 3, 1997
Place of Birth:
Southern Lapland, Finland
Weight:
47 lbs.
Lineage:
Bred from Usvan lines, Yoki comes to us from a famous kennel dedicated
to maintaining extremely functional hunting KBDs
Special Skills:
Yoki has a great nose for tracking and seems to be fearless on bears:
he would ride their backs biting and snarling if we let him! He's
also an exceptional barker. Yoki is the father of the first Finnish
line of KBDs born in North America that are used in bear-conflict
work.
Education Level:
Yoki has completed his Beginning Obedience course.
Personality:
Intense is an understatement when it comes to describing Yoki. He
is full of focus and drive, yet he loves to cuddle up with people
on the floor and gently nibble their bare arms in a gesture of adoration.
He is a vocal dog, often letting out a moan as he stretches out
on the ground or whining a little at whoever is sitting closest
so they notice him and give him some love.
Special Note:
Kuujoki, meaning "Moon River", is from Erauspojan ("Yearling
Bear") Kennel in Lapland. Carrie met his parents through bear
biologist Erik Nyholm while in Finland tracking down Cassie's "Usvan"
ancestors. Yoki brings Cassie's old, old lines back to us. He is
the first male KBD with proven bear lines to be brought into North
America. Yoki made the trip to the United States all by himself
when he was only 5 months old.
