My wonderful association with dogs began in 1966. Together with my late husband Frans De Ridder we bought a dalmatian puppy: Pluto. His wonderful temperament let us decide to have more dalmatians (not 101…) and we imported some english dogs, started to show very successfully and we applied for our kennel name: “Irdally’s”. Under this prefix we have bred quite a number of champions. Later on our team expanded with the addition of Irish wolfhounds and than you will understand our kennel name…
Begin of the 90’s I developed a strong interest in a Belgian breed: the Brussels Griffons, especially the smooth haired variety (Petit Brabançon).
I have w world famous fine art collection of all kinds of dalmatian figurines, a result of selective searching for more than 50 years…
I applied to become a judge in 1973 and in 1996 I became Belgium’s first female All Rounder. I have judged extensively; including assiggnments on all continents. I have been honoured to judge my beloved breeds at different World shows.
I am the chairman of the Belgian Chihuahuaclub for quite some time and after my husband passed away I took the chair in the Royal Belgian Dalmatian club. I also am I am the vice-chairman of Wafdal (World Association for dalmatian clubs), was the first chairman of the Belgian Irish Wolfhoundclub and I am a member of the Standard Commission of the Belgian Kennel Club.
