Braehead's Valiant Gabriel: A dog who is too great not to have his own brag page! I am my dog's #1 fan, and this page is a tribute to him. Gabriel has many competition accomplishments, please scroll and enjoy his page. But first, a slideshow of candid pics. Not only is he a great competition dog, he is a great family dog. He is a gentleman in so many ways. He is a lovely balance of strength where it is appropriate and gentleness where it is appreciated such as with small dogs and small humans. He is extremely intelligent, athletic and regal with a zest for life. While typically aloof with strangers, he is extremely affectionate with his family, and polite to guests. He gets along with a wide variety of dogs who board at the kennel and has been an excellent housemate to all the dogs he has lived with. He even welcomed a terminally ill emergency foster dog that we brought home because he had nowhere else to go.
