MY STORY
Welcome to my page! My name is Irina.
Throughout my entire conscious life, I have dreamed of dogs. When I was almost six years old, I was given a Labrador Retriever for my birthday. At that age, I couldn’t physically handle her, but I did my best. By the time I was eight, I was better equipped to manage her. I started training her and took full responsibility for her care. It was there that I discovered the world of dog shows.
At the age of 10, I entered my first competition with a dog I had fully prepared. We didn’t win that day, but I was incredibly proud of my dog. We trained harder, and eventually, we returned to the competition and won. At that show, someone noticed me and asked me to work with their dog. (I’m grateful to those who gave me confidence and introduced me to a new profession.)
Since then I began to improve, discovering new breeds. People passed my contact information from hand to hand, and I received many recommendations. A little later, I joined the FCI Valentra Star kennel, where there were dogs of all sizes, from tiny Chihuahuas to Japanese Akitas, and I gained a lot of experience working with them. I also had experience working with kennels of Miniature Pinschers, Dobermans, Labrador Retrievers, Akitas, American Staffordshire Terriers, Jack Russell Terriers, Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, Bernese Mountain Dogs, and others.
I attended several masterclasses on dog handling and training and completed FCI judge courses in conformation and working qualities. While working with Miniature Pinschers, I realized I wanted one of my own, which led me to establish a Miniature Pinscher kennel.
This is how my childhood dream continues, and I am thrilled to have found my calling. With over 13 years of experience as a professional dog handler, trainer, breeder and FCI judge of exterior and working qualities, I aim to help you connect with your dog so you can enjoy life together or meet your dog’s basic needs.
