(Jineau Whippets)
Since my teen years there has always been a dog in my life, my first pedigree dog was a Boston Terrier, born in 1993 and imported from Norway.
I’ve always been intrested in dogs of all kind and at this age I started to visit breeders from different breeds to know all about the concerning breeds in detail. At the age of 13, I started to go to dogshows as a visitor, soon afterwards I was quite active as a ringsteward at different shows in Belgium. At this time the Bedlington Terrier came into my life and at the age of 19 I’ve owned, groomed and handled my first Champions.
I’ve owned and/or co-owned several Champions in Bedlington Terrier, Spanish Sighthound, Italian Sighthound, Brussels Griffon ( smooth coat ) and ofcourse bred/owned or co-bred/owned Whippets under the Jineau and Roccobarocco’s name. Some of them not only became Champions and/or Top Dogs, but also BIS(S)-winners. Through the years we’ve imported dogs from Norway, Denmark, Germany, The Netherlands, France, Ireland and USA. You can find progeny of our dogs on 4 continents and in at least 40 countries.
I’ve been active as a ringsteward, groomer, handler, judge, examinator, teacher of showhandling classes, committee member of our local showhandling club and National Breed Club. At one point I was the youngest Belgian judge officiating and since I had the honour to judge either at CAC / CACIB-level, Specialty Shows, Open Shows and Junior-Veteran Shows in Belgium, The Netherlands, France, Germany, Denmark, Finland, Sweden, Austria and Czech Republic.
Within the past 35 years with our beloved dogs, I had the opportunity to visit, experience and see a lot of European countries as a judge, visitor or exhibitor. Being active in several canine disciplines and breeds – as a breeder/handler/judge – I appreciate a personal approach and contact.
I wish you all a nice day, hope to meet you and your dogs soon !

Kaisa Gold, Suomi
Kaisa Goldin (ent. Metteri-Gold) perheessä oli staffordshirenbullterriereitä ja se oli myös hänen ensimmäinen oma rotunsa. Hän hankki ensimmäisen amerikanstaffiordshirenterrierin vuonna 1989 ja siitä lähtien hänellä on rotua ollut. Kaisa oli alun perin enemmän kiinnostunut tottelevaisuuskokeista ja muista käyttöpuolen asioista, mutta myöhemmin myös näyttelyt ja kasvattaminen tulivat mukaan. Kaisalla on ollut amstaffien lisäksi myös pienempikokoisia rotuja, ensin jackrussellinterriereitä, sileäkarvainen kettuterrieri, bostoninterriereitä ja sittemmin löwcheneitä, joita hänellä edelleen on.
Kaisa aloitti kasvatustyön jackrussellinterriereillä ja ensimmäinen amstaffipentue syntyi kennelnimelle Masterbolt vuonna 1997. Tällä hetkellä hän on yksi rodun pitkäaikaisimmista aktiivikasvattajista Euroopassa. Hänen kasvateissaan on lukuisia kansainvälisiä, kansallisia ja Amerikan muotovalioita, vaikka kasvatustyö onkin ollut erittäin pienimuotoista. Kaisa on esittänyt myös erirotuisia koiria, pääasiassa griffoneita ja irlanninvesispanieleita.
Hänellä on arvosteluoikeudet kaikille roduille FCI:n ryhmissä 2, 3, 4, 9 ja 10 sekä useille roduille ryhmistä 5 ja 8. Kaisa kuuluu Ulkomuototuomarit ry:n hallitukseen ja hän on toiminut Amerikanstaffordshirenterrieri- ja Staffordshirenbullterrieriyhdistyksen puheenjohtajana ja hallituksen jäsenenä sekä Suomen Kääpiökoirayhdistyksen hallituksen jäsenenä. Hän on arvostellut erikoisnäyttelyissä ja kaikkien rotujen näyttelyissö kaikkialla Euroopassa, Australiassa ja Amerikassa.
Mrs. Karin Hedberg, Sweden
I own and breed, on a small scale, Salukis and Shetland Sheepdogs, under the prefix Kashmani. My first Saluki was born in 1971 and my first litter was born in 1977. Many of my Salukis have merits from shows as well as from lure coursing and track racing. My most recent litter of Salukis was born in 2018. I bought my first Sheltie in 1995 and bred my first litter of Sheltie puppies in 1999. I have also owned a small Poodle and a Whippet. I hope to breed Salukis and Shelties again.
Since 2002, I’m an International Championship Show Judge licensed by the FCI and the Swedish Kennel Club. I was first licensed to judge Salukis, Whippets and Shelties, and since 2009 I’m Group judge for all Sighthound breeds in FCI Group 10, and also for those breeds in Group 5 which once were part of Group 10 (the so-called Mediterranean breeds). I’m also licensed to judge other breeds, in FCI Groups 1, 5 and 9.
During the years I have served on committees and subcommittees of various dog associations such as the Swedish Kennel Club, the Swedish Sighthound Club, and the Swedish Saluki Club.
I have judged at International and National Allbreed shows and at Championship specialties in Europe (Sweden, Finland, Norway, Denmark, Estonia, Latvia, Germany, Great Britain, France, Belgium, Italy, Luxembourg, Croatia, Czech Republic and Poland), as well as in the USA, Australia and Canada.
I look forward to judging in Finland again!

Matti Luoso, Suomi
Olen syntynyt vuonna 1953 Helsingissä. Ensimmäisen koiran hankin 1960-luvun jälkipuoliskolla. Se oli dalmatiankoira. Tästä koirasta alkoikin pitkäksi venynyt koiraharrastukseni. Vuonna 1972 syntyi ensimmäinen dalmatiankoira pentueeni ja viimeinen vuonna 1994. Tuona aikana kasvatin lukuisia valioita ja näyttelyvoittajia. Minut onkin palkittu kasvatustyöstäni Suomen Kennelliiton Lauri Vuolasvirta palkinnolla, Suomen Koirankasvattajat ryn kasvattajapalkinnolla ja tietysti Dalmatiankoirat ryn kasvattajaplaketilla.
Alusta alkaen olin innostunut esittämään koiria näyttelykehissä. Esitinkin useita eri rotuisia koiria aina BIS-voittoihin saakka. Mainittakoon näistä karjalankarhukoira josta tuli Vuoden Voitokkain näyttelykoira ja irlanninterrieri, joka voitti saman tittelin kahtena peräkkäisenä vuotena. Esitin myös useita eri rotuisia terrierejä korkeille sijoille samoin kuin erästä mielirotuani tanskandoggeja.
Olen ollut alusta alkaen kiinnostunut myös yhdistystoiminnasta. Olen toiminut puheenjohtajana dalmatiankoirayhdistyksessä, tanskandoggiyhdistyksessä ja norwichin- ja norfolkinterrieriyhdistyksesä. Suomen Terrierijärjestössä olen toiminut varapuheenjohtajana ja varainhoitajana ja hallituksen jäsenenä 40 vuotta.
Minut on palkittu seuraavien yhdistysten kultaisella ansiomerkillä: Suomen Kennelliitto ry, Suomen Terrierijärjestö ry, Suomen Tanskandoggi ry, Suomen Norwichin- ja Norfolkinterrierit ry ja tietysti Dalmatiankoirat ry.
Vuonna 1990 valmistuin ulkomuototuomariksi ja saanut sen jälkeen arvostella niin erikoisnäyttelyissä kuin maailmannäyttelyissä ja kaikissa muissa näyttelyissä niiden väliltä. Arvostelen rotuja seuraavista FCIn ryhmistä 2, 3, 8 ja 10 sekä joitakin rotuja ryhmistä 1, 5, 6 ja 9.
Aleš Novak, Slovenia
Graduated from Economics, Professional photographer, Slo. Archery champion, Ski teacher, Whippet breeder, Exhibitor and Int. FCI Judge group 4, 8 and 10.
My name is Aleš Novak and I started sharing my active life with dogs (whippets) in 1992, when my Karstia kennel was established. I have always kept good friendly contacts with best breeders in the UK and other parts of Europe and World. I spent so many learning days with best whippet breeders from England and Italy on the beginning of my Whippet career.
From 1992 i had 34 whippet litters and many of my
puppies became champions. My Karstia Whippets got 16 Best in Show Tittles and 49 Best of group tittles. We established Slovenian Sighthound Club more than 32 years ago. Member of Slovenian Sighthound club board, breeding comitee and president of show comitee for more than 20 years.
I am International FCI judge for all Sighthounds, Dachshunds, Spaniels, Retrievers and Water dogs from 2001. I judged many International, national and special shows all around Europe and Australia. Last year I started to do also group FCI 9. I am in love with dogs and i always respect exhibitors, that’s why i have always big entry at any show. The biggest Whippet entry I had in Sweden- 189 dogs ( what is still record entry) and in Australia- 185 dogs.
Always come and judge seriously, unburdened and with honour. Every time I judge any breed I am licensed for by FCI, I try my best to choose the best quality dogs in my opinion, regardless of achievements of the dogs from previous dog shows. That is why I am never under pressure of knowing who the leading show dog is or who handles it in the show ring. What judge friends, show organizers and exhibitors said many times about me: friendly to dogs and people, knowledge, eye for a good dog and proper moving, dynamic sporty person with wide open mind…
Thanks for your trust and I hope we will spend a nice time together.
