ABOUT
Nowadays, I am ruled, trained and daily washed by a wonderful Icelandic Sheepdog named Tyra. Before her, there was «always» dogs in my life, ever since I managed to convince my parents to let me have one when I was 8. I got an Australian terrier for my birthday. A very wilful and troubled little dog, but back then in the 60’s the tolerance for dogs’ behaviour was far higher than what we see today. I would read any dog magazine or book I came across and this was my true passion, and still is today. Although I am much more picky nowadays. When I was young, I showed two dogs to become beauty Champions at conformation shows, I had a short career in obedience competitions, and in utility competitions. After I discovered the magic and mutual pleasure of tracking and other search games, I left obedience and conformation shows for good. And I still do something search wise with my dog every day. Now, after Covid regulations are being lifted around the world, I am travelling, giving workshops and IDTE’s many places. Dog trainer education is ongoing in Mexico and Taiwan, and plans to start up other places are under considerations. And I am always open minded about new places to go, so maybe I come to you, if you ask me.
