  • KENNEL:

    Inanna

Dinanda is licensed to judge Cesky Fousek, Chesapeake Bay Retriever, Irish Water Spaniel, Labrador Retriever, and Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retrievers. Dinanda lives with her dogs and partner Niels in Deventer. She is a hairdresser and owns her own salon. Dinanda got her first dog, a Standard long-haired Dachshund (Teckel) when she was seven years old. Labradors were soon to follow, then English Cocker Spaniels and a Bearded Collie. She did obedience courses, hunting training and KNJV-tests (the Royal Netherlands Shooting Association). All these activities she did with both fun as a healthy ambition! Apart from the 'practical' part, she did the official courses of the Dutch Kennel Club: KK1, KK2 (knowledge of different breeds, standards, nutrition and conditioning, anatomy, genetics, breeding, behaviour, movement, physiology, etc.), E&B (exterior and movement). She also did a first aid course and a homeopathy course for animals. All this comes very handy when helping friends with their dogs during labour & birth!
