I have had dogs since I was a child but they weren’t purebred. I loved dogs and I used to buy a lot of magazines, books and encyclopedias about dogs. I saw a Ridgeback in a magazine and I fell in love with that breed but I was only a little girl and my parents weren’t very interested in looking for where to buy a Ridgeback.

Years later, I started to look for my dreamed breed. My first Rhodesian Ridgeback came into my live in 1999, and it was with that puppy that I started to go to dog shows. With the years the number of Ridgebacks at home have increased, being 7 the maximum number that I have had at the same time.

I have shown my dogs around Europe to their championships, which are more than 60 since I started to go to dog shows in the year 2000 till today, 2021.

My kennel name is “Molema Mua Rôo” and I have bred 19 litters from 2003 till 2021. From where some puppies have been exported to France, Ireland, Italy, Finland, Estonia, Portugal, Croatia, Romania, Norway, USA, Sierra Leona, Ghana, Morocco, Colombia, Mexico, Cuba and Chile and they have become champions of their country, stud dogs or brood bitches or just beloved pets.

In 2006 I became steward. I attended lot of shows as steward in Spain and I still do it but with less frequency.
In 2009 I did my exam to become judge. I was judge in practice during 2 years. In 2011 I did the breeds exam and I became National judge of Rhodesian Ridgeback, Beagle, Dalmatian, Labrador and Golden Retriever, but since then the number of breeds that I am able to judge has increased gradually. It was also in 2011 that I became member of the committee of the regional kennel club of Catalonia (ACUCC) till 2015. In 2014 I became International judge.

I have attended 2 Rhodesian Ridgeback World Congress (Ireland 2008 and Scandinavia 2016) so far.
