An interview with a handler

No less important to have respect to another exhibitors.

» What in your opinion are the biggest mistakes novice handlers make? The biggest mistakes novice handlers makes - they forced to work oblivious to the fact that the dog is not a robot.

» What are the biggest mistakes experienced handlers make? The biggest mistakes of experienced handlers, when they don’t want to learn more and when they thinks they knows everything. This is in my opinion the big mistake.

» Do you have any advice for other men and women who might be interested in learning more about Professional Handling ? My advice is: love your dog, love what you do, do not forget that the shows is not just a job for a dog. The dogs must always enjoy the process This is a 50% of success.

» What do you do for relaxation, what pastimes do you enjoy? At my free from the shows time I spend with my family and my 12 year old daughter. I'm happy to have good friends and usually spend perfect time outside. Fishing, barbecue and going outside.

» Who has been your biggest inspiration? Honestly, I never have had a mentor. I always wanted to have highest wins and I've been working hard towards it all by myself. I've been reading articles about handling in different countries and about different breeds. Watched lots of videos from the biggest shows and always tried and still trying something new.
