CLAUDIO DE GIULIANI

I was born in Forno di Zoldo, a little village in the Dolomites, a fine area known in the world for its mountains. In my life I have always had the dogs as my companion: when I was a child and I joined my father in the hunting and later when I became a hunt, before with a hound, later with a pointing dog. I have breed at first the German shorthaired pointer. It was 70s! My great love for the German breeds did know to me also the German longhaired pointer and I started to breed them; some of them become important in the show competitions and in the hunt. I was the first Italian breeder who imported the German longhaired pointer into Italy and I had the first Champion in Italy of this breed. I have many interests also for the German wirehaired pointer, but only as a lover and not as a breeder. I have always studied the pure  dogs  and I began to judge in the 1979. Now I am All Rounder since 2004. I was a delegate of the Italian Kennel Club in the C.I.D., (German Wirehaired Pointer dog) and was also a member of the pure breed book of the Italian Kennel Club. I was in the Italian Kennel Club Committee and in the Italian Judge Committee. Now I am in the FCI Judges Committee. I like writing articles regarding the dogs, I have written on the most popular Italian dogs’ magazine, and I have also written 12 books and I have made a video about the dogs training. I like the hunt and walking on the mountains and photographing the nature. With my wife Manuela I have been a good dachshund breeder, with a good success, with many show champions. I have already judged in all Europe countries, England, in Argentina, in Russia, in Mexico, in Venezuela, Peru, Colombia, Usa, Australia, New  Zeeland, Philippine, Tasmania, Thailand and South Africa, Japan, China.
