Gioia

a daughter of Gianna von Arminius

is the sporty one of my trio,

she is always up for a game,

full of enthusiasm

in the slalom

at THS competitions –

sometimes

her temperament

runs away with her.

But her true passion

in VPG sport

is protection work,

where she can finally

live out her prey drive.

Of course that does not mean

that Gioia isn't a great family dog,

patient with children,

keen to learn little tricks

and up for

any fun.

September 2014: still very fit and hardly grey at ten and a half

Gioia on her 14th birthday! She still easily manages a half-hour walk

and loves to bathe.
