Maria is from Sweden originally. She is excited to present her Briard puppy Nique from kennel Berger la Motte's, Gothenburg-Sweden. Nique is Maria's 3rd briard. He is from excellent Polish and Belgique lines, several champion titles including international champions in the family. Maria is an occupational therapist specializing in pediatrics and Nique comes with her to work and they are working towards a therapy dog title. They take puppy classes, Nique past herding instinct testing with grace at 6 1/2 months and Maria would like to show Nique as well. He has good self-esteem, easy going and social with both dogs and people. Nothing is really scaring this confident young man so far.
