JUNIOR HANDLER...

1 How old are you? At what age did you
start handling?
I’m 11 yrs old. I started handling a year ago
since I was 10 yrs. old.

How did you become interested in
dogs? In handling dogs?
As of the present, my father is a dog handler.
He brought me to dog shows, then I grew
involved in handling dogs which I adore. I
love dogs! 1

Do you have any dog showing idols?
Why you look up to them; if any?
My uncles and my father. They are giving their
best to achieve the goal every show not only
for themselves but for their family.

What was your first dog, and what 2

breed? First show dog? First dog

you handled in a show?
2
A Chihuahua . My father gave it to me as
present. It was terrifying to handle a dog

for the first time, but at the same time

overwhelming. That was a Golder Retriever
for a dog show in Cavite, the year 2018.

What would you consider as the

major highlights of your show
handling experience?

Winning the best junior handler for the
preceding Philippine Circuit Show was my

highlight in show handling. It drives me to
dream big in dog show handling. 3
