I have grown up with German Shepherds all my life, but started handling in 2003, I then went on to live in Belgium from summer 2003 until October 2005, there i was given the opportunity to experience showing on the continent and also the working side, I handled Cindy vom Amulree to SG45 at the BSZS 2004.
I have been priviledged to handle many top class animals and along the way gained CC's and RCC's with them.
I have handled a couple of dogs to their BH and also done an AD, I have also handled Gayville's Italia to her LBZ and also participated in the Bite work at the Irish Sieger with Italia, where she passed. In 2009 I Handled Gayville's Zora at the British Sieger where she passed her bite work and went on to be Best Britsh Bred female in the woking class and Vice Siegerin!
I enjoy handling, but i also enjoy going to our local Schutzhund club and working our dogs.
I started Judging at Open Show Level in 2008, I am also Regional correspondent for the North East of England in the Breed Council Magazine, I am Treasurer for Allertonshire G.S.D.C and i was the secretary for the North Eastern G.S.D.C from 2006-2008.
