Since my earliest childhood, our house has been full of different animals—dogs, cats, rabbits, squirrels, birds, fish, turtles...

Our journey with dogs began in 1990 with a Posavac Hound, a Croatian native breed. For 11 years, we had a beautiful working dog, Best—"Lun." Lun is fondly remembered as an excellent hunting dog among hunters, but he was also a show champion. He even appeared on phone cards and posters promoting Croatian native breeds, some of which are still displayed at the Croatian Kennel Club (HKS) today. He will always remain in our hearts as a beloved companion and friend.

In 2001, our first Irish Setter bitch entered our lives. Coming from exceptional bloodlines with highly successful ancestors, we decided to show and breed her. She participated in numerous dog shows with outstanding results, and her offspring followed in her footsteps, achieving even greater success.

In 2004, we saw Maine Coons at a combined dog and cat show and instantly fell in love with their appearance and character! After carefully searching for the perfect cat, we imported our first female. Over time, our cattery grew, and our cats and their offspring have become increasingly successful, now living in catteries and loving homes worldwide. In 2014, I became a FIFe cat judge.

In 2005, we introduced a completely new breed of hound to Croatia—the Lucerne Hound. Our beautiful female quickly became a World Winner and European Champion. She was not only a successful show dog but also an exceptional working dog and the foundation of this rare breed in our kennel. Her offspring continued her legacy, winning Junior World Winner and European Winner titles. Additionally, dogs bred in our kennel have even won the European Cup on hare.

My mother, Gordana, and my father, Dragomir, provide invaluable support in showing, breeding, and caring for these wonderful animals that bring so much joy and fulfillment to our lives. Our animals are family members, and our goal is to enjoy life with them while occasionally raising healthy, happy, and well-socialized puppies and kittens.
