About me
In 1998 my dream came true: my first own dog came into my life. Selly was my love at first sight. My friend and me used to walk dogs in Bratislava dog shelter and that made my parents believe that I meant it seriously and they allowed me to bring a dog. I started to search a pedigree puppy. But then during a visit in the dog shelter I got Selly to walk her and I knew that I am not going home without her. She was skinny black-and-tan doggie with big ears, but for me 6-month old Selly was the most beautiful dog in the world. I would not change her for anything. With Selly on my leash I entered the world of dog training and sports, especially agility. |
No start is easy. With Selly it was a little bit more difficult, because of her first experience with people. But if you really want and believe, everything is possible. I passed with Selly obedience exams and even a Comprehensive Trial (a trial similar to IPO). |
I have been a licensed obedience instructor and agility trainer since 2004. I am FCI Agility judge since 2017. I had been Team Leader of Slovak national team at EO for several years. In 2010 I was also Team Leader of Slovak National Team at AWC. Since 2011 I have been representing Serbia.
