Đurđa
Djurdja Simply Divine, born on July 21st 2004, is a Belgian Shepherd Malinois breed and was bred in Belgium in the Simply Divine kennel.
Đurđa is my princess and behaves like one.
Her character is not of a typical Malinois because she comes from the show line. At the very beginning we had lots of disagreements , because I was not use to that kind of Malinois, but through work and life together, we managed to somehow see eye to eye. Even though Đurđa now has the desire to work, which wasn't the case at the beginning, a lot of training and competitions paid after all, she manage to qualify for four world championships (in 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010)
In year 2010 at the World Championship for Belgian Shepherds FMBB Đurđa won 2nd place.
2010 is also Đurđa’s most successful year in her career, but also the most sorrowful because I found out that Đurđa has PRA (progressive retinal atrophy), which eventually leads to blindness.
I hope that Đurđa will not finish her career in agility at age six but will still be able to compete for a couple more years.
Đurđa unfortunately finished her career in year 2010.
Her last competition was the WC in Rieden (Germany) and after that we stopped, because her disease was to progressive so she was not able to train.
Now she is living a pet life and enjoying her retirement.
She doesn't see much, almost nothing but I am sure she will live a long and happy life for many years.
