In my eyes, success is never measured in medals but in overcoming challenges. Our Sheltie, Nai, has been by far my most successful dog, winning countless titles and medals at both the European Open and World Championship. She had incredible physical abilities, a strong will to please, and made everything seem so easy.
However, my proudest moments often came with my sensitive boy, Pan. Achieving a remarkable 14th place at the World Championship with him meant far more to me than some of the victories I’ve had. Even when we didn’t win, completing a smooth, flowing run—despite a single mistake like a dropped bar—was incredibly rewarding. Knowing that most trainers would have given up on such a complicated dog made every accomplishment with him even sweeter.
Top Achievements
For me, trophies hold little meaning. I’ve only kept a few from the European Open and the Agility World Championship, thinking I might want to reminisce about those moments when I’m older. That day hasn’t come yet, so they’re currently tucked away in the basement.
Still, here are some of the titles we’ve been fortunate to collect over the years:
- 2014 – World Agility Open Pentathlon CHAMPION in the 500 category
