Nino is a charming and highly skilled Pomeranian with natural confidence and an exceptional ability to perform on cue. Well socialised from a young age, he is comfortable and relaxed around people of all ages, including children, as well as other dogs and animals. His friendly, adaptable nature makes him an ideal candidate for a wide range of environments, from busy public settings to controlled studio work.
Training began when Nino was just 8 weeks old, and since then, he has developed an impressive repertoire of tricks and behaviours. His dedication and ability have earned him notable achievements, including the Gold Kennel Club Good Citizen Award and Trick Dog Champion titles with “Do More With Your Dog.” These accomplishments reflect both his intelligence and his consistency in performance.
Nino is clicker-trained and thrives on both food and toy rewards, giving trainers plenty of flexibility in how they work with him. He especially loves his toys and often carries them around, bringing extra personality and charm on camera. He is quick to learn new behaviours and enjoys the process, making him a reliable and enthusiastic performer.
Equally comfortable working indoors and outdoors, Nino adapts well to new locations and is confident working with unfamiliar handlers. He is able to perform alongside other dogs and remain focused in shared environments.
While naturally calm and composed, this skilled Pomeranian can also bring playful energy and excitement when required, making him versatile for a variety of roles. His combination of skill, temperament, and expressiveness makes him a standout talent for both live and filmed work.
