Hi!
My
name is Elena Kravchenko, and I am the happy owner of three sporting
dogs.
My journey into dog sports began in 2013 with my Standard Schnauzer,
Bruno, who introduced me to the world of dog sports. Bruno is an
EST/LV/LT RO FCI CH, Obd 2, BH and AG2. It was thanks to him that I
discovered Obedience, and it remains my greatest passion today.
My main competition partner is my 9-year-old border-collie Nikko.
We
continue to train and compete actively in both Obedience and Rally
Obedience. Together, we have represented Estonia as members of the
national Rally Obedience team in 2024, 2025 and 2026, and as members of
the Estonian Obedience team at the FCI Obedience WC in 2025. Now we are preparing our journey to Rally Obedience WC competition 2026 held in Denmark.
The youngest member of our pack is Snipe, a young border-collie who is
just beginning his journey in Obedience.
I am a certified Obedience trainer with the Estonian Kennel Union (EKL).
As an active competitor, I continue to train, compete and develop my
knowledge and skills.
During my training sessions, I help handlers look at their dog's work
from a different perspective: to recognise the strengths of the team,
identify mistakes in the exercises, and determine the best direction for
further training.
One lesson cannot replace consistent training, but it
can help identify priorities and make future training more effective.
In my work, the health and well-being of the dog always come first. I
believe that lasting sporting success is only possible when a dog is
both physically and mentally healthy. That is why I place great
importance on thoughtful training plans, appropriate physical
conditioning, and maintaining each dog's long-term health and
well-being.
My trainings are held in english.
I warmly wellcome everybody to come in to my trainig group!
