I was born in Moscow in 1955. Since my childhood time I was deeply interested in Biology, horses and dogs. I have got my professional education as the veterinarian at the Moscow Veterinarian Academy. In cynology I was educated by Dr. Eugene Yerusalimsky, my husband.

I was qualified as the judge first in 1980, since 1992 I became RKF All-rounder status, and since 2000 I’m FCI-International All-rounder. Over the years I judged at European, International and National shows in Russia, Belorussia, Ukraine, Moldavia, Estonia, Lithuania, Latvia, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Italy, Belgium, Finland, Poland, Serbia, Bulgaria, China, Indonesia, Thailand, Chile, Brazil and Australia.

Keith Young first became involved with the dog world in the mid-1970’s, when the family bought a Golden Retriever. Subsequently he and his wife June registered the Pyngold kennel name and showed the breed with success.

From his early days in dogs Keith has been interested in the administration side of dog showing and his first direct involvement was with the United Retriever Club where he concentrated mainly on the working side of the activities.
Through his great friendship with Ron Bradbury, Keith became involved with the Midland Golden Retriever and was elected onto their Executive Committee in the late 1970’s where he served as a Committee Member., Assistant Secretary, Vice-Chairman and Chairman until his retirement 2007. The Midland Golden Retriever Club made Keith an Honorary Life Member in recognition of his service to the Club.

For many years Keith was on the Executive Committee of the Midland Countries Championship Show, the Birmingham National Championship show and the City of Birmingham Championship Show at the same time. When he was appointed Secretary of “The City” he resigned from the other two Societies. Keith I s currently the Secretary of the City of Birmingham, a position he has held for a numbers of years. In addition Keith was a Group Steward at the LKA (for some twenty-eight years) and WELKS (for twenty-three years) until his recent retirement.

He became a member of the kennel Club in 1990 and was elected onto the General Committee in May 1997. Having previously served on the Disciplinary Committee for a number of years, Keith is currently Chairman of the Show Executive Committee.

Having first awarded CC’s in Golden Retrievers in 1991 and judging the breed at Crufts in 2005, Keith is now approved tp award Challenge Certificates in Golden Retrievers; Flatcoated Retrievers; Labrador Retrievers; English Setters; Pointers; Weimaraners; Italian Spinone; Clumber Spaniels and Welsh Springer Spaniels as well as being approved to judge the gundog Group.

There were many dogs in my childhood, but I started my occupation in kennel area seriously in 1971 with Black Giant Schnauzer Šaš Grinotvški who was one of the first representative of this breed in Slovenia. I shared my life later on also with some other breeds (German Sheperds, Doberman and Dalmatian), but Schnauzers have remained my prioirty and it was the reason that more than 16 years ago I founded the first Schnauzer Pinscher Club in Slovenija and I am still its president.

After Giant Schnauzers, I started breeding pepper / salt standard Schnauzers. I named my kennel »Gremarti«. The name was based on first letters of my son's and daughter's names Gregor and Martina. Now both are over 35 years old.

Besides I am an international judge for FCI group II / Schnauzers, Pinchers, Doberman; group III. - all Terriers; group IV. - Dachunds, all group V. - Spitzs and primitive dogs), I am finishing group IX.. I has been judging in 29 different countries, 1 Europian and 1 World Dog Show.

I am a founder of junior handling in Slovenija and the Kennel Club´s kommission for juniorhandling. I also made the first regulations, training and wrote a book about the sport. I am still judging a lot of junior handling competitions all over the world. I've been performing many diferent kynological seminars at home and abroad, also in China.
