In 2013, my dog Nele (Labrador/Weimaraner) and I discovered mantrailing. Nele and I grew into a harmonious team through this great hobby.

Today, other wonderful furry friends, Fine (dachshund) and Franzi (Weimaraner), are part of my team.

..from hobby to profession..

I turned my beloved hobby into a career. I completed my trainer training with K-9, Alexandra Grunow & Rovena Langkau.

For me, further training is a MUST. The whole team regularly takes part in courses and training sessions to keep our performance levels at an optimal level. Because we love what we do, every learning session, no matter how demanding, becomes another great experience.

Animal searches are my passion. As the first chairwoman of Tiersuche Niederrhein eV, I can draw on years of experience and good training as a foundation, as well as a wonderful, reliable team at my side.

We also train regularly at trainer level in the context of animal searches in order to integrate various topics. We are networked with many great organizations because we all have the same goal: animal rescue.

My name is Elke Feldmann. I have my Bavarian Mountain Scent Hound "Blade" and the Hungarian Viszla bitch "Ella". Blade got me into trailing in 2017. After we completed all the tests according to K-9 guidelines, including the animal search test, we regularly go on animal search missions. I would like to pass on the experience I have gained through trailing. That's why I decided to start training as a search dog trainer. I really enjoy accompanying my teams. I'm looking forward to exciting trails with you and your dogs.
