BESAI BONHEUR D'LEGEND OF KORRA BH * IGP2 * BT-X
Korra is a bubbly, high-drive dog with a huge heart for anything she puts her mind to. She has very high toy and food drive, a really nice nose on her, and medium-high prey drive. Cute as a dang button, one of my favorite traits about her is her sense of humor in everyday life.
One of Korra's defining traits is her resilience. She recovers quickly from pressure, accepts fair correction without loss of engagement, and returns immediately to work with confidence and clarity. Naturally an independent thinker and worker, she brings a strong willingness to be right when given clear structure. She is highly perceptive of subtle handler cues and emotions, showing strong awareness and adaptability.
In obedience, she is a flashy, high-twitch dog who can work with both toy and food rewards. She’s had a natural inclination for tracking since she was a puppy, showing high hunt drive and desire to work. She’s always been more of an independent dog; the strengths that come with this personality type have shown in Korra’s working style, she’s not the type to look to me for reassurance as a default.
In protection, Korra brings fast-twitch athleticism, grit, and commitment. While she retains strong prey characteristics, her work is driven more by active aggression than by prey alone. She demonstrates the confidence to stay engaged through conflict and pressure, while remaining thoughtful and functional in both her guarding and biting.
Outside of work, she is easy to live with. She’s quiet in the car, clean in the crate, has never been destructive, and is not a nuisance barker. She is a dog who is ready to spring into action - and I love this about her. However, it did require teaching her an off-switch. Socially, she is appropriately aloof with strangers but deeply affectionate to those she knows.
Korra is driven, full of personality, loves being involved in anything that is happening, and brings both a serious side when needed but also a sense of humor to everything she does.
