About me

Hi 👋 I’m Jenny Damm, an animal lover and agility enthusiast whose journey began surrounded by animals of all kinds during my childhood. From training horses to teaching tricks to dogs, guinea pigs, and even pigeons, I’ve always loved connecting with animals and uncovering their potential.

In 1993, I welcomed my first dog, a Jack Russell, and later, in 1996, a Border Collie named Lotus, whose intelligence changed everything for me. It was with Lotus that I discovered agility—a sport that has defined my life since then. Competing for the first time in 2001, I won the World Championship in Portugal, and this milestone started my global journey of sharing agility knowledge through courses and seminars.

Over the years, I’ve trained and competed with eleven Border Collies, each with unique personalities. I love the process of getting to know every new puppy, developing systems, and finding their strengths. Agility for me isn’t just about competition—it’s also about the joy of everyday walks in the forest and building a strong bond with my dogs.

What Drives Me

I thrive on challenges, whether it’s fine-tuning training details, developing systems, or exploring the unique potential of each dog. While I am a 100% competitive person who loves the adrenaline of the start line, the best moments are still the quiet ones—cuddling with my dogs or taking peaceful walks in nature.

Agility has brought incredible adventures and unforgettable experiences into my life, and I’m thrilled to continue sharing my passion with others. 🐾
