The name Zurii is Swahili for “beautiful”.
Zurii is the clown of our house and is Mr. Personality plus himself!

He enjoys entertaining us with his playful antics. He also loves learning new tricks and performing them for anyone who will watch.

Many times at the BCOV Gala day he has delighted everyone present with his many tricks and also with his obedience.

Zurii taught David the ropes of showing and also did very well at Conformation shows thanks to his effortless gait, lovely head, coat and laid back temperament!

Beautiful Zurii

Zurii has a lovely melodic yodel and he knows it!!! He is constantly yodelling and he knows how good he sounds!! He yodels greetings to everyone & while his meals are being prepared or most especially when he's been caught doing something naughty or sometimes I suspect just for the pleasure of hearing his own LOUD voice !
He is now enjoying life as a couch potato and bench thief extraordinaire!

Zurii enjoys being carried around native style

Thanks Perry for this lovely photo of
11 year old Zurii enjoying showing everyone that he can still move in the Parade Of Veterans at the Specialty Show

 

I found these old photos of Zurii (below) I thought I'd share.

Zurii below imitating Jack The Ripper after stealing a chefs knife and running around the house with it. The photos are dark as they were taken in a hurry but if you look closely you can see the knife in his mouth that he had just stolen from the kitchen bench. These photos were taken some time ago but he still delights in stealing anything & everything he can. Funny old boy is now over 13 years old and still steals everything that he can and then gives us a look as if to say...“Aren't I a good boy?”
Gotta love him!
