COMMITTEE
Paola Daffunchio – president
My name is Paola Daffunchio and I have been a breeder of Samoyeds in Italy
since 1989 with the affix WELSEA. I love the samoyed breed unconditionally
and for this reason I have tried to enhance it also through training. I
also own and manage the Il Biancospino dog training school, which provides
dog training courses for professional trainers in Italy. The Samoyeds at
our center work in obedience, agility and are highly skilled in performing
tricks. I spur my Clients to educate a Samoyed to the best of his /her
abi64/8lities to become the best friend of all family members.

Evaldas Mickis – member of committee
My name is Evaldas Mickis and I‘m from Lithuania.
My LIFE with samoyeds started in 2008, when my wife Dalia ask me about my opinion about Samoyeds. For me it was just a white dog, but later then we purchased first samoyed Kira, I felt in love with this breed. And story started – second samoyed at home, later third and … We started show career, breeding and later canisterapy. Since this time I‘m in love with samoyeds and I can’t imagine my life without them.
I was one of Lithuanian Samoyed Club the founders in 2013 and first LSC president. At this moment I am again a president of LSC.
I like dog shows, where you can meet me often, maybe even too often. I was in all ESS shows that happened before and I hope not to miss upcoming ESS events. It is biggest show pleasure to meet friends from all world or make new contacts.
My wife has a kennel „Klajoklių šuo“ and I help her with shows, breeding program (Mating) and another activities. Since 2008 we bred 32 litters and 159 samoyed puppies.

Martin Henčel – member of committee
First time I met Samoyed was in 2005, when my wife and I were looking for a new family member. We chose Zara, female from ´Yoshi and Us´ kennel in 2006 as a pet. After a short time we started to visit shows, camps and we found new friends. Since that time I´ve started to work in commitee of Samoyed club Slovakia where I am still an active member.
My wife has a kennel ´Carpathian White Smile´ since 2009. We bred 64 puppies in 10 litters. Of course, I fully support my wife in this activity.
In my opinion, samoyeds are not dogs for people but dogs with people.

Karolína Šifaldová – member of committee
My name is Karolína Šifaldová and I live in the Czech Republic near Prague. The first time I saw a Samoyed was definitely in some cute video on instagram. But at that time I didn’t even think that we would have one at home! And not just one, but four (I don’t know how many more will come, try asking me when you see me).
My Samoyed journey started in 2018 and since then we have experienced a lot with this amazing breed. I am happy to be part of a big Samoyed family that connects owners and lovers across Europe.
