Sakorn means River in Thai. He is extremely well bred and is a top representative of the breed. He arrived to the U.S. in February 2003 as a Thai Import, and was 5 1/2 months old. Sakorn has a very free and independent spirit. He is self sufficient only requiring his daily dose of love. He has a very fearless, happy go lucky personality. Nothing really seems to bother him much. His personality tends to drift from the norm of the breed. He is extremely gentle and affectionate, but he can be easily excitable. He always looks to please, but does look to be mischievous occasionally. Many TR can be very aloof or defensive with strangers. SAKORN loves everyone as if they are his best friend. He is very happy to come and jump on you and look for your friendship. He is not reserved by any means. He does however look to guard the home from strange occurrences. He is high drive and has a strong prey instinct. His self confidence and his overall conformation and beauty are the reasons he has performed so well in the show rings. Many judges have commented on his spirit, movement, and confidence. These are very desirable traits to a judge. They can not overlook it. One AKC judge’s comment was "He is extremely cocky and full of himself." FCI Judge Guido Vandonni of ITALY has given him an overall critique of excellent! SAKORN has beaten every TR he has went into the ring with to date. He will retire from the ring this year. He championed in 2003 with Rarities Inc
