About me

I'm a 23 year old student from Austria. Since my childhood I have lived with animals, my biggest dream was to get my own dog. With 13 years Sido came into my life and as he is a big part of it, I couldn't imagine my life without him.

From that moment we have taken part in many different kinds of dog sports and celebrate a lot of victories. We travelled to many different countries, often as the youngest competitors on the competition.

I live with my sister and my parents at a little farm, outside a small city in Lower Austria. After school I love to take photos and edit them on the computer afterwards. Traveling is also a big hobby. I love to visit special places and to meet new people. 



Photography

In my free time, I'm often taking photos of my dog, nature, friends or animals. Especially Sido is my main model and he already knows how to be a good model. With time I improved my camera and computer skills and I'm getting better and better. 


Juniorhandling

It all started in 2014...

After I showed Sido for the first times I wanted to get better in handling. Sido's breeder told me about Juniorhandling and I wanted to try it out. At the IDS Wieselburg'14 I started for my first time in Juniorhandling and I got the 4. place from 15 starters. This was the begin of my Juniorhandling career. Since them I reached a lot of success and started on many dog shows at Juniorhandling and got better and better. I also learned to handle different breeds. Now I'm slowly turning to 18 and this will be the end about my JH career and my start to become a proffesional handler. In early 2020 I became then a Juniorhandling judge.
