| Biography |
||
| I was born into a family with Samoyeds and Huskies. I started dog shows in the 1980 ́s with an uncle who
was a dogshow judge. My first own dog was a Cocker Spaniel, then Welsh Springers and American
Cockers came to my life. I lived in a city and was not able to have several dogs at home, so I started to
show other peoples’ dogs from all groups. I won my first all-breed BIS in 1988 wit' Tibetan Spaniel and
1989 with Norwich Terrier owned by late Hans Lehtinen and Johan Juslin. Until I started my judge’s
education, I was a successful handler. I have owned or bred English Cocker Spaniel, Welsh Springer Spaniels, American Cocker Spaniels, Shetland sheepdog, Siberian Husky, Pomeranians, Bichon Frises, Löwchens, Papillons, Chinese Crested, and Maltese. Pomeranian is the breed I am most well-known for, I have owned or co-bred well over 100 Champions in the breed, including 10 different World or European Winners. One of the highlights was winning Reserve BIS at Dortmund European show 1992 and several group wins at other European winner shows. Member of: o Finnish Kennel Club Board o Chairman of Dog show and judges committee (Finland) o Member of Helsinki Winner Show committee o Member of The Royal Kennel Club (UK) I'm a President of one of the biggest breed clubs in Finland: Finnish Toy Dog Club. The Finnish Toy Dog Club is responsible for a vast variety of Toy breeds from FCI group 9 (Toy and Companion dogs) and Pomeranian, Kleinspitz, Volpino, Yorkshire Terrier, Affenpinscher, and Schipperke. I´m an examinator Judge for some breeds from five different FCI groups, especially from groups 5 and 9. I've judged in over 50 different counties from all continents and have had CC appointments to UK for 30 different breeds. Some of the most important appointments have been judging at Westminster show 2025 and Toy group at Windsor show and several BIS appointments at main European shows like Dortmund Bundessieger, Herning Danish winner, Poznan, Brno and Istanbul Crufts qualification. Several invitations to FCI World and European shows and Champion of champions shows have also been special moments in my career. |
