Our dogs > Kissmo

Dancer's George Gismo v.d. Toetestejn

My first kooikerhondje Kissmo travelled by plane with me from Holland in 2001. Before that I got to know the litter to Holland spending very nice time with the breeder and Family Snels. Besides lovely litter of Dancer and Randy, this beautiful and distinctive country took my heart forever! I have so many immemorial and enjoyable memories from those two first trips to Holland – including many other trips to Holland later after that!

Kissmo is “the small big dog” who does not leave anybody cold. He is very clever, energetic and quick to learn as the breed use to be. Still, sometimes his behaviour have surprised us – he seems to think like a human people! Other way, he discovers things which are not typical for dogs. One example: some of us saying “I have got a headache”. Then our bustling and worried Kissmo comes to take care of the patient with many, many licks!

Kissmo has also another very special affair and job in the Family. As my big satisfaction, he keeps every single mouse and mole far away from the house! Kissmo is the best fellow worker of my husband Heikki, as well. They always work together on the yard.

Travelling with Kissmo has always been very easy. I suppose he loves travelling, and he does not avoid any conveyance. Some years ago we took a flight from Helsinki to Vianna, from where our travel continued by taxi to Bratislava…, and Kissmo became European Winner 2003!
