I was born into the world of German Shepherd, with both my parents involved in breeding, showing & trialling German Shepherds. My involvement started at a young age and started by participating in junior showmanship subsequently leading to being involved in breeding, showing and handling.
As a family, we breed under the prefix of ‘Vladimir’ and although breeding minimally, we have achieved much success. We have been awarded the GSDCA National Silver medal for Hip (A) and Elbow (Z) passes and had the pleasure of owning, in partnership and/or breeding many Breed Survey classified, Excellent, Excellent Merit and Australian Champion/Supreme Champions and National winning/ Medalling animals. Some notable achievements (normally lead in hand as a proud breeder/owner/handler) include:
- Supreme Ch. Vladimir Anarchy National Winner, QLD & NSW Siegerin
- Ch. Vladimir Envy This - Multi National winner & Exc merit & Vladimir Envy Is Sin – Exc Merit
- Ch. Vladimir Glam I Am – Medallist and Ch. Vladimir Greyt Sensation – National winner and Ch. Vladimir Greys ThNew Black – Exc Merit
- Ch.Vladimir Insaitsable - Multi medallist
- Supreme Champion Vladimir Just A Flirt
- Ch. Vladimir Legen Waitforit Dary – Medallist & her daughters; Ch. Vladimir Remember Th Name & Supreme Ch. Vladimir Supercalifragilistic – both medal winners.
To date, I have owned/bred 9 individual National winners, 6 National medallists and 8 Excellent Merit graded animals and countless BISS and all breed BIS winners. Two particular highlights of my involvement was our 2013 GSDCA National Breeders Group award win and becoming the first ever mother daughter Siegerin and Vice Siegerin in 2022. I have also been involved in showing & breeding French Bulldogs.
I achieved my ANKC Group 5 (working dog) licence in 2019 and in 2022 it was recognised that I completed the German shepherd extension course. For over a decade, I have held numerous positions at my local state club level including Youth Officer & most recently Show Secretary and am actively involved in the DogsNSW Judges Training scheme. Nationally, I have held the position of Youth Officer as well as support a number of position holders/schemes and serve on a number of sub-committees of the GSDCA. My judging has taken me to most states in Australia and New Zealand.
