MY LOVE OF DOGS
After 20 years of professional life in sales, communications, event creation and public relations, between Paris and overseas (Vanuatu, Guyana and New Caledonia), I decided to retrain in a craft profession that matches my passion for dogs.
This passion for dogs has never left me since 1975 since I have always had one, two, or even four dogs at the same time.
Even in my professional life, I was able to integrate my love of dogs by organizing several "International Dog Shows" and "Breed Specials" which allowed me to acquire a good knowledge of all dog breeds.
I was also a member of the board of the New Caledonia Canine Society and editor-in-chief of its quarterly magazine, a way to be in contact with veterinarians and professionals in the canine world. Finally, I participated in the creation of the first Canine Education club in New Caledonia.
This is why, in 1998, while I was living in the Morvan, I started spinning dog wool, with the aim of spinning my dogs' wool.
I spent many hours of work and wasted kilos of undercoat from my Leonbergers before I managed to obtain a decent and strong wool.
One day at a dog show I showed the result of my spinning. People who had already spun wool told me that it was very beautiful and that I should offer my work to dog owners. That's how it all began.....
