World Dog Show Italy 2026

Welcome 🇸🇪 Markus!
The passion born at 14 can change your life!
At 14 years old Gisslen Markus bought his first Tibetan Terrier. At 15, he went to the UK to work with one of the most respected breeders in the world to hone his experience. With over 35 years of experience, she has bred, shown and loved Tibetan Terrier under the Shadeacre code — results that include BIS winners. He also owned champions of Barbone Toy, Lhasa Apso and Rhodesian Ridgeback.
As a judge since 2016, his approach is simple: respect for every breed, search for the best type and humility towards breeders.
Being a jury at the World Dog Show 2026 in Italy is a great honor for him: he will give his all. 🐶🏆

The first FCI WORLD CHALLENGE OF TOP DOGS was a great success.
49 countries sent its Top dogs. The quality was amazing.
It was very emotional how Kennel Club leaders escorted the dogs. The atmosphere was electric.
The FCI TOP DOG 2025. is an Afghan Hound female from Chile.

I am proud of being able to make my dream true with the help of the FCI Board and the Finnish Kennel Club.
