Greetings to all championship participants—I wish you plenty of memorable experiences, joy, and success!

I have been involved in dog sports practically since childhood. I started with German Shepherds but soon began training Giant Schnauzers, Dobermanns, Rottweilers, and other breeds. Over the years, I have completed dozens of working trials with different dogs and competed in many events.

For over 20 years, my husband and I have been breeding black giant schnauzers under the Goldest Danubius kennel. With one of our homebred dogs, Frajer Frenkie, I achieved the title of ISPU Individual Vice World Champion, as well asmultiple World Team Vice-Champion titles. We also won the Czech Republic Giant Schnauzer Championship, competed in the Czech All-Breed National Championship, and secured numerous placements in CACIT and CACT competitions. With another of our dogs, Jesse James, I won the all-breed CACIT competition in Všestary during the COVID era. Currently, I am preparing my young schnauzer, William Wallace, for top-level competition.

In total, I have competed five times at the Giant Schnauzer World Championship, six times at the Czech Giant Schnauzer Championship, twice at the Czech All-Breed National Championship, and countless times at top-level competitions across all breeds. My entire life revolves around dogs, and as my husband and I like to say—they are like our children.

In 2008, I became an obedience judge, and in 2017, a sport cynology judge. I have had the honour of officiating at the highest levels in both disciplines, including qualification events for national and world championships, breed-specific and all-breed championships, and competitions awarding CACT titles.

I am very much looking forward to seeing all the teams in action and hope that the competition is a great success for everyone. Best of luck!
