BACKGROUND

Vixen was born in Finland and then imported to England. When I first became interested in the Tamaskan breed, I stumbled across her photo on the internet and instantly fell in love. I knew with certainty that I wanted a Tamaskan that looked JUST like her, one day...

In spring 2009, as if by fate, she was listed as available for adoption at the age of 3 years old. Of course, I did not hesitate! The fact that she had been raised around cats and rabbits, as well as children, was an additional bonus considering my multi-pet household. In autumn 2009, I collected her from Germany and brought her home with me to Croatia.

In spring 2010, Vixen had her first litter, which was sired by Jasper: Firefox litter. In autumn 2013, Vixen had her second (final) litter, which was sired by Xantho in Austria: Pokemon litter. She was then retired from breeding and spayed. Sadly, Vixen passed away on New Year's Eve 2014 as the result of a tragic accident.

TEMPERAMENT

Vixen was an absolute sweetheart; a real "lap dog" who loves cuddles. She was very loving and easy-mannered, polite and obedient. She did not pull on leash (or in harness) and she was excellent off-leash with perfect recall. She was practically my shadow and will always followed me from room to room. She had no prey drive whatsoever and got along great with our cats. She was an incredible dog.
