Hello, my name is Agnieszka. I will tell you my story.
At the end of primary school, due to complications after pneumonia, I fell ill with allergic bronchial asthma. At this time, I was in a sport class, achieving quite good results. After competitions and trainings. I rested in the company of my cat and dog. I was referred to a specialist clinic where after allergic tests I found out that I had to give up on everything what was most important for me and what I loved – my pets and sport.
But how? It was a shock for me! A breakdown started, then rebellion and fight.
My parents found another good house for my beloved cat. Allergy was too large. Luckily, “Bari” stayed with me. Otherwise, I would weep my heart out. I did not give up on sport completely, but I had to greatly reduce the intensity of the trainings. Sometimes it was hard. Sometimes, I had such bad asthma attacks in the evenings that my parents had to call an ambulance.
Following years of desensitisation, taking medications and trainings, I got back in shape. My lungs efficiency changed from asthmatic to sport one. I completed zootechnical studies. It was my informed choice, in line with my passion. During the studies, I represented the University in the equestrian section. I have very good memories of this period.
Several years ago, while watching TV, I came across Australian Labradoodles, dogs with hypoallergic, allergic- and asthmatic-friendly coat. In this way, my love at first sight and the idea of breeding and spreading knowledge about this breed started.
In 2017, a beautiful black Australian Labradoodle bitch joined our family. Our family, beloved dog. This is how our adventure with doodles began and continues to this day.
Seven years ago, the first female Australian Labradoodle joined our family and initiated great changes in the life of our family. We became a family, home breeding of Smart Australian Labradoodles. Currently, we have four female dogs living with us in our home, to whom we are able to provide a loving home, sufficient amount of attention and good quality of life until the end of their canine stay on Earth. At the same time, wanting to develop the breeding, we infected our parents, parents-in-law, friends and acquaintances with the passion and love for doodles, who became foster families for our other breeding dogs. Thanks to this, our dogs are provided with optimal care, are happy and balanced, and the foster families cannot imagine life without their doodle family members.
Personally, wanting to take care of four doodles at home, I started to approach the subject of dog training more professionally and finally I became a dog training trainer using positive methods, level II, and a certified animal behaviorist. Puppy socialization became my “hobby horse”. I treat every day of the development of puppies in our kennel as a stay of little ones in a nursery, realizing how many things depend on the wise work of the breeder in the field of socialization and preparing the dog for life among people in different conditions and environments. After all, the kennel nickname “Smart” obliges.
