Zirkle, named for Aliy Zirkle, is part of the Mushing Heroes litter. Zirkle is aloof at first, cautious of new people, but once you earn his trust he is a wonderful, happy go lucky, easygoing and laid back dog. Zirkle gets along with everyone, I never have to worry about who I put him next to on the gangline or who I let him loose with during free play. He has a quiet intelligence behind his calm demeanor that comes forward in his developing leader skills. He is easily one of the most valuable dogs on the team, a total pro at only a year old and improving ever since. Zirkle gets so excited to run, that he starts honking like a goose! Barking is too easy, he needs to express himself with a more...unique sound.
