Introduction

My name is Anina, I was born in 1978 and I live in Kotka, the south-eastern coast of Finland. My family includes besides me my husband, our daughter and of course our dogs.

Dogs have been a part of my life since I was a young girl. I was about 10 years old when the first dog came to our home. In my childhood home I came familiar with toy dog breeds, such as Maltese and Pomeranian. The first steps in the dog show world I took with our Maltese male called Seri.

My first, very own dog was a Chihuahua - a smooth-coat dog that came to our family from Antza’s Kennel in 1999. Since then my heart has belonged to these "small big dogs", which have with their character and presence captivated a permanent place in our home and our lives.

We do not have separate kennel facilities, but the dogs live with us as family members.

A picture from another direction. The yard has a dense wire-netting fence around it, so the dogs can stay outside safely.
