Ginnie & Milo at Curfts 2020 - Main RingWe live in a house in Korsør, close to both beach and forest.
Before the Dutch Kooikerhondje came into our lives, we had 1 Labrador and 3 Hovawarts.
Since 2014, it is the Kooiker who has been the breed of our lives.
When we had the Hovawarts, we mostly spent our traning in obedience and family activities.
One of the reasons we switched to the Kooiker was that Lasse wanted to run agility and we wanted a smaller breed that was easier to bring on holiday.
We got our first Kooiker in 2014: Bailey - from Kennel Wassikooi. Bailey ran class 3 Agility and it was with Bailey we got our eyes on the exhibition.
We always had 2 dogs at once, so when our third Hovawart died, of course we had to have Kooiker no.2: Milo - from Kennel Vitovani.
Milo also ran Agility and after exhibiting Bailey a lot, we had acquired a taste for that part of the dog world.
As an exhibition dog, Milo was something very special and quickly achieved many great titles, both in Denmark and abroad.
With Milo, Ginnie started at NoseWork, which is a great sport for the Kooiker.
Today we have Dizel and Tino- both are from Kennel Duckhills. Dizel is our third Kooiker and son after Milo. Tino is a halfbrother to Dizel - same mother.
Dizel is a really lovely, loving and welcoming Kooiker. Dizel not only has a super good temperament, he also loves all kinds of training. Agility, NoseWork, Track and Exhibition - no matter what we do together, Dizel has a party.
Together with our dogs, we have got to know many dog people and their beautiful dogs. We have had many good experiences, at rallies and exhibitions around Denmark and abroad, and we enjoy being away with our dogs.
The Kooiker is easy to travel with and since it is a really beautiful dog, we are often stopped by strangers who want to know what kind of breed it is.
We are a member of the Danish Kennel Club, The Danish Kooiker Club, German Kooiker Club and Dutch Kooiker Club. In addition, we have access to ZooEasy. ZooEasy is the database of all registered (and reported) Kooikers since 1946.
In 2020, we have both completed the Danish Kennel Club's Breeders' Education.
