My first dogs - My origins

Laska, my very first dog, 1997-2007.

Thank you, Laska, for always being there for me.

Not only were you the most loyal friend, but also

the best andmost caring nanny, I ever had.

Thanks to you and my parents for making it possible for me

always bringing animals home and making them part of our

Making family is how I became who I am.

Julia, 1999-2003, daughter of Laska

MinefirstBitch from which IFarewell had to take.

​

Ringo, 2002-2003, White Shepherd mixed breed dog

Was thefirst dog that belonged only to me.

The three of you, Laska, Julia and Ringo, taught me how a dog group works and how you can love without limits and that death is very painful.

​

Stitch, 2008-2022, Pointer mixed breed

My first dog with medisturbed aggressive behavior.

I learned a lot from him about body language, respect and sensitivity. You can love a dog even if you can't touch him much. 

​

Amon, 2012-2013, my first dog with walking difficulties

He was abandoned in a box on the doorstep. He was a black and white mixed breed puppy with aneurological disease.  He taught me to never give up and always take a step forward, enjoy life because it can be short and let go when the time comes.

Dias, a dog that looks like a fox, 2010 - luckily still with my mother and brother 

The first dog with an enormoushuge radius and extremely sensitive when eating and making corrections.

With him I learned that onenot be equally strict with all dogs, some people break because of it. Besides, you always have tohave the animals examined by a vet first before starting to interpret (he was picky about food because he had digestive problems). Aaaand it isPossible to train a dog with a huge radius with radius training to develop into a dog that always walks freely next to humans and therefore appears totally relaxed.

​

Ilaira, 2011 - luckily still with me, Pekingese mixed breed

My first very small and planned dog.

She is my life partner in good and bad times. She accompanied me on many trips, hikes and extreme sports activities.

She taught me how to care for a dogBuses, cars, bicycles, joggers, sheep and everything else that moves chases, trained. Theawake instinct that she has at homeI haven't been able to completely lose weight yet. I've learned to deal with the waking behavior by managing it early enough so that she doesn't bark at all.

​

Eragon, 2020 - Luckily still with me, Border Collie mix

My firstdeaf, hyperactive and traumatized dog from bad experiences with other dogs. The first dog that made me doubt. Agreat need for energy, very low tolerance for frustration, with enormous stamina when it comes to whatever is on his mind, and an addicted hunter when he was a young dog. But at the same timesuper friendly, intelligent and sensitive dog who really enjoys learning. So far we have made great progress through an enormous amount of training.

Due to his deafness, he has been attacked several times by male dogs because he did not react quickly enough when warned. I think when we finally totally combat this trauma, he will be the absolute perfect dog!

Thank you, Eragon, for continuing to challenge me.You taught me to communicate without words and to have a lot of patience. I am amazed by our quiet world!

Eragon and Ilaira have made me very proud over the last few years.

You were at my side at the Hacienda riding stables for two years. They have been working with me at my part-time job as childminders for more than a year, and two cats have even been living in the children's household for a few months. They do great with horses, farm animals, machines, children, adults and cats. And the hunting of wild animals is managed successfully, so that Eragon has been able to walk relaxed through the forest again for six months without going crazy. However, the towline still remains in place inside the forest.

I'm currently working on having relaxed dog encounters with both of them on a leash again at the same time. After Eragon's behavior changed, Ilaira also changed a lot. Group dynamics can have a lot of effects on dogs. Unfortunately, unwanted behaviors are much easier to transfer than desired ones. :)

I will not forget a single dog that I have met and will meet in my life, whether it was in my life for 15 years, 3 years, 1 year or one day. Every dog can teach me something that makes me ME.

Professional experience and training
