Uspešen vikend / A successful weekend

Malo pozno poročam, ampak tale vikend je moje zdravje zdelalo jesensko vreme... Smo bili pa pridni. Tatjana in Endži sta na sledarsko tekmi v Kočevju z zmago dokazali, da njuni jutranji treningi prinašajo dobre rezultate. Čestitamo in držimo pesti za naslednji vikend na Ptuju!

I'm a bit late to report, but my health was weather-beaten this weekend... But we worked hard. Tatjana and Endži won a tracking race in Kočevje and proved that their morning trainings bring good results. Congratulations and keep our fingers crossed for next weekend in Ptuj!

Midva z Garnyjem pa sva v Gablizu v Avstriji s super ocenami opravila ZTP in dokazala, da je vzreja hovawartov v Sloveniji na visokem nivoju.

Garny and me passed ZTP in Gabliz - Austria with really good grades and proved that the breeding of hovawarts in Slovenia is at a high level.

Spet malo drugače / A Bit Different Again

Ta teden smo imeli sobotni trening kar pri Zdravku doma. Vsem je koristil pobeg v neokrnjeno naravo in trening na neznanem terenu. Psi so bili postavljeni pred novo preizkušnjo, saj smo imeli improvizirane revirje. Ampak kot vidite na slikah, so tudi tokrat odlično opravili.

Tatjana je manjkala na treningu s posebnim opravičilom. Udeležila se je Državnega prvenstva psov v sledenju na Ptuju in z 98 točkami zasedla odlično 2. mesto. Čestitamo! 

This week we had our Saturday's training at Zdravko's home. We all needed an escape to the unspoiled nature and training on unfamiliar ground. Dogs were faced with a new challenge, since we made improvised blinds. But as you can see on the photos, once again they did a great job.

Tatjana missed a training with a special excuse. She participated at the national tracking championship in Ptuj and took 2nd place with exellent 98 points. Congratulations!

Zahvala Komisiji za šolanje in KD Maribor

V nedeljo je imela slovenska reprezentanca uradni trening, kjer sem markiral Nataši Lampe. Trening si je ogledala tudi moja ekipa. Kasneje pa sta nam organizator (KD Maribor) in Komisija za šolanje omogočila trening na stadionu in poligonu KD Maribor, za kar se jim v imenu ekipe najlepše zahvaljujem. V veselje mi je bilo po dolgem času spet videti kinologe iz različnih taborov in se z njimi podružiti v pozitivnem vzdušju.

Hana izvješća I. / Hana poroča I. / Hana reports I.

Hana je iz daleke Francuske preko Slovenije došla u Srbiju tj. Zaječar. Svega ovoga ne bi bilo da nam u susret nisu izašli članovi Pečnik teama i učinili jednu veliku uslugu. Hana je sada u društvu črnih ruskih terijera Itana i Indy, border colija po imenu Bredy, cane corso Magma i Tor, sibirski haski po imenu Tea... Hana nam je omogučila da ostvarimo jednu predivnu saradnju sa članovima Pečnik Teama. Zahvaljujemo se Zdravku, Tatjani, Evi i ostalim članovima teama na gostoprimstvu i predivnom vremenu provedenom na poligonu u Ravnama i kod Zdravka kuči.

Hana je iz daljne Francije preko Slovenije prišla v Zaječar v Srbijo. Vsega tega ne bi bilo, če nam naproti ne bi prišli člani Pečnik Teama in nam naredili velike usluge. Hana je zdaj v družbi črnih ruskih terierjev Itana in Indy, borderske ovčarke Bredy, cane corsov Magme in Tora, sibirskega haskija, psičke po imenu Tea... Hana nam je omogočila čudovito sodelovanje s člani Pečnik Teama. Zahvaljujemo se Zdravku, Tatjani, Evi in ostalim članom ekipe za gostoljubje in čudovitih trenutkov na poligonu v Ravnah in pri Zdravku doma.

Hana traveled from distant France through Slovenia to Zaječar, Serbia. None of this would have happened, if members of the Pečnik Team didn't do us a great favour. Hana now lives in the company with two Black Russian Terriers Itan and Indy, Broder collie named Bredy, Cane Corsos Magma and Tor, Sibiran Husky named Tea... Hana has enabled us a wonderful collaboration with the members of Pečnik Team. We would like to thank Zdravko, Tatjana, Eva and the rest of the team members for their hospitality and the wonderful moments at the training ground in Ravne and at Zdravko's home.

Odštevanje / The Countdown

Odštevamo dneve do izpitov, na katerih bo ekipa postavila na preizkus svoje znanje po programih B-BH in IPO 2. V duhu intenzivnih priprav smo na trening povabili markerja Tomaža Režonjo. Po tem, ko so se naši trije pasji kandidati za IPO 2 s svojimi vodniki dobro odrezali, smo z gostom potrenirali še ostali.

Hvala Tomažu za trening in veliko uspeha ekipi na sobotnih izpitih!

Counting down the days till Saturday's exams, when our team will put their skills in B-BH and IPO 2 to the test. In the spirit of the intensive preparations we hosted a guest trial helper Tomaž Režonja in our training session this weekend. After our three canine IPO 2 candidates and their handlers did a good job, everyone else got a chanse to train with our guest.

Tomaž, thank you for the training! Team, every success on the exams!

Motivacija, trud in močna ekipa...

Le redki bodo razumeli zakaj je pes srečen, ko hodi ob vodniku željan izpolniti njegov sleherni ukaz. A samo tisti bodo razumeli tudi kaj pomeni voditi psa, ki hodi od tebi tako sproščeno in veselo, da preprosto čutiš kako njegova energija polni tudi tebe.

Only a few will understand why a dog can be happy when walking along his handler eager to fulfilll his every command. But only those will also understand the energy one gets from handling a dog so relaxed and so cheerful.

Tak odnos med vodnikom in psom je osnova kinologije in je plod pravilno nastavljenih temeljev sistema dela, ki ga je psu že kot mladičku potrebno razložiti. Najpomembnejši čas za pravilno vzgojo vašega ljubljenčka je torej že od rane mladosti do enega leta. Vse te osnove je potem potrebno samo nadgrajevati in tako izpiliti vsak delček poslušnosti. S takimi temelji se lahko vodnik in pes lotita športne kinologije.

In cynology an honest relationship between a handler and a dog is indispensable and is a result of correctly set bases of systematic approach to dog training. It is very important to teach this bases to a puppy from a very early age. After that one only needs to maintain,  upgrade and refine dog's obedience and for mentioned relationship. Only now the couple is ready to begin training for competing in canine sports.

A poleg pravega psa in vodnika potrebuješ za doseganje vrhunskih rezultatov v tem športu še dobrega trenerja, markerja - dobrega vodjo. Torej dobro povezano ekipo, ki te spodbuja in ti pomaga, ko zmanjka motivacije in ko gre kaj narobe. In potrebuješ cilj, ki te pelje naprej čez ovire. Delo, nešteto ur treninga, motivacija, trud in močna ekipa je tisto, kar krasi vrhunske športne kinologe in njihove nepogrešljive spremljevalce - pse.

But in addition to the right dog and the right handler, in order to achieve the best results, the couple needs an excellent coach, trial helper - a leader. One needs a coherent team that will encourage and help him. And he needs a goal that will lead him over all the obstacles in his way. Hard work, countless hours of training, motivation, effort and a strong team - that is what a handler and his dog need in order to achieve the best results.

Tako kot v tujini velja še danes, je imela pri nas športna kinologija nekoč bogato tradicijo. Moja ekipa želi svoje znanje in trud pokazati širši publiki, saj si želimo, da ta šport spet najde svoje mesto tudi v Sloveniji. Zato smo se odločili, da bomo svoje treninge, razmišljanja, foto in video utrinke, včasih pa tudi zabavo, z vami delili na spletu. Vse somišljenike, pa tudi tiste, ki boste to morda šele postali, vabim, da nas spremljate na našem blogu. Za konec pa vam sporočam še to: pogumno, pametno in uspelo vam bo!


Europe has a proud canine sport tradition as well as Slovenia had years ago. My team wants to present itself to a wider audience and help dog sport to find its place in our culture again. Therefore we decided to share our trainings, thoughts, photo and video highlights and sometimes even fun online. I invite all our supporters and those who might just become one to follow our blog. And just a thought for the end: work smart, be brave and you will succeed!
