Dog Shows

My journey at the dog show world started when I was the age of sixteen working at the world famous terrier breeder, Victor Malzoni Jr, of the Hampton Court kennel located on Itatiba - SP- BR where I worked for two years as a groomer assistant and could learn a lot about handstripping and handling. Having the international all breed judge Mario Duarte as my mentor I had the opportunity on having grooming classes with the world famous terrier handler Gabriel Rangel, the wire fox terrier breeder and handler Santiago Pinto and others.

On the year of 2015 the breeder Leandro Levendosk introduced me to the world famous Paul Flores and Tray Pittman (Paray Kennel - Bichon Frisés and Shetland Shepherds) who invited me to come to The U.S. as an apprentice to learn and study dog structure, handling and grooming on a higher level of understanding movement dynamic.

July of 2017 I moved down to the San Diego area and started to work with the AKC Judges Sharon and Ray Stevens of the Sharbelle Kennel - Poodles and Cresteds where I can apply my knowledge and develop my handling and show grooming skills everyday
