In the world of show dogs I have been very actively involved since 1972 when I got my very first Irish Terrier.

My first litter was born with the “Emsmuehle” prefix  in 1977. Since then I have bred more than 190 Champions in different part of the World. It´s include English Champions, International Champions, World Winner and some Crufts Winners and Best in Show Winners as well.

I have been still faithful to the breed and hope that will follow some excellent examples.

Together with my wife, I published in 1998 and 2011, two books about the Irish Terrier.

In 2007 the VDH awarded me the Baron von Gingins-Memorial-Medal. This is the highest cynology honors, the Association award for outstanding contribution to the promotion of the breed.

In 1992 I got my judge license for the Terrier breeds.

I am approved as an All Breed Judge ( Allrounder) from the German Kennel Club ( VDH ) and the Federation Cynology International  ( FCI )  in 2012. Since then I have received many invitation from around the world and have worked at the most prestigious shows.
