Bio:

Ghillie is a remarkable English Springer Spaniel with a natural talent for performance and an eagerness to learn. His friendly and outgoing personality makes him a joy to be around, and he thrives in both social and working environments. He loves meeting new people and gets along brilliantly with other dogs, making him an excellent choice for media work, whether solo or alongside other animals.

Highly intelligent and driven, Ghillie is always ready to learn new skills. He has passed his Kennel Club Good Citizen Bronze, Silver, and Gold awards, demonstrating his outstanding obedience and training. In addition, he has earned an advanced Trick Dog Certificate, proving his versatility as a performer. His handler is a professional dog trainer, meaning Ghillie can be trained for specific roles or commands with prior notice.

This English Springer Spaniel is no stranger to the spotlight. He regularly competes in heelwork to music competitions and participates in demonstrations across the UK. His impressive skills extend beyond tricks and obedience—he has an advanced heelwork to music certificate, meaning he can quite literally dance his way through a performance. His experience includes attending regular obedience training and competing as part of a team at Crufts, showcasing his ability to work confidently in high-pressure environments.

Clicker-trained and highly motivated by food or toys, Ghillie responds well to direction and enjoys taking on new challenges. Recently, he has started competing in Rally Obedience and is also part of an agility demonstration team, further highlighting his athleticism and adaptability.

With his stunning looks, keen intelligence, and well-rounded training, Ghillie is a top-tier choice for film, TV, advertising, and live demonstrations. Whether you need a talented trick dog, a graceful performer, or an obedient canine model, Ghillie is ready to impress.
