Ior (Eeyore) has got his name for a reason. Nobody can look as sad as him. But nobody can on the other hand the second after be so full of play and bouncing. He is a happy guy that thinks that everyone is his friend. He is a dog that it's very easy to love. "Velvet outside and velvet inside", as a friend use to say.
Ior is 37 cm, something that is considered as small in today's competition. He is a very elegant dog, but very sound and with a well developed body. He has a very beautifully chiselled head and a long, well carried neck. He has an excellent bone structure, and he has the classical dancing movements of the breed. He has a mild and alert temperament on top of that.
