Monica Svensson & Zkoj
I live in Skåne with four dogs in my small herd. I bought my very first dog 12 years ago and soon fell in love with rallyobedience. We started our first competition 2014 and after that I was stuck in our wonderful sport.
Zkoj is a eight year old poodle. He was born a gentleman. He is sharp, sensitive, careful and a fast learner. He can read my thoughts, for better or for worse. He is a fantastic friend! Zkoj started his first Swedish Championship when he had just turned two years old. Actually, we have qualified for the Swedish Championships every year since 2018.

2021 was an absolutely fantastic year! We won the individual gold at the Nordic Championships and silver in the team.
