The kennel
A professional journey that officially began at eighteen, and a passion that keeps evolving with every dog and every generation.
01My journey with dogs began long before the creation of my kennel. Dogs have been a constant presence in my life from an early age, shaping not only who I am, but eventually the professional path I chose to follow.
At the age of eighteen, immediately after finishing school, I decided to turn that passion into a profession. I attended a professional dog training school and officially began my career as a dog trainer. Working closely with different dogs taught me to look beyond appearance, and to appreciate the importance of temperament, communication, structure, and the unique personality of every individual dog.
Over the years, this experience naturally became part of how I approach breeding. Understanding the dog as a whole — its character, health, abilities, and relationship with people — matters to me as much as preserving the qualities and appearance of the breed.
02Dalmatians have been part of my life since childhood, and in many ways they are where my story truly begins. Long before I thought about becoming a breeder, I already knew what it meant to share everyday life with this distinctive, energetic and deeply expressive breed.
Growing up with them let me experience their character beyond the unmistakable spotted coat. Their intelligence, sensitivity, enthusiasm and strong connection with their people were what made them so special to me. Living with them taught me early on to understand and respect the individual dog behind the breed.
When I became professionally involved with training, I saw the Dalmatian from a different perspective. The breed I had loved since childhood became something I could understand on a deeper level, through behaviour and training — and that shaped how I wanted to approach breeding.
03My introduction to the Spitz happened far more unexpectedly. I first came across the breed almost by chance while scrolling through Facebook, though it had already been suggested to me as one worth exploring. What began as curiosity quickly became genuine fascination.
The more I discovered, the more there was to appreciate: the distinctive look, the lively personality, the intelligence and expression, the wonderful temperament. I was drawn just as much to the breed’s hardiness and health — qualities that matter enormously when you think about responsible breeding and the future of a breed.
Its rarity in Greece intrigued me too. I could not find here anything quite like what I had admired abroad, and instead of seeing that as a limitation, I saw an opportunity: to experience the breed myself, and to help more people here discover it.
04Today I run a small kennel in Greece, where my dogs are first and foremost part of my everyday life. Keeping the breeding programme small lets me stay personally involved with each dog and each litter, bringing together my experience as a trainer and my commitment to responsible breeding.
Although my connection with each breed began differently, both have become meaningful parts of the same journey. One represents my roots and a lifelong connection; the other, discovery, and the excitement of bringing something new into my life and into the dog community in Greece.
My goal is not simply to produce beautiful dogs. I want to preserve the qualities I value most — sound temperament, good health, correct breed type, and dogs that become wonderful companions for the right families.
It took me more than three years of studying, researching and asking questions before I felt ready for my first litter — because every time I thought I knew enough, I discovered how much more there was to understand. I still consider myself a student. Breeding is not something you learn once and then know; it is a continuous process of questioning and improving, with every dog and every generation.
My kennel is officially registered with the Kennel Club of Greece (ΚΟΕ), a member of the Fédération Cynologique Internationale (FCI). I follow the standards and regulations of these organisations, with a firm commitment to responsible and ethical breeding.
Every dog here is health tested, and every puppy is placed with care.
