Our Ambassadors
Julita Łubianka
She always loved dogs- since she was a little girl. She was also always a good runner. As a junior, she trained athletics – long-distance running. Her crown distance was 5000m. Canicross linked two passions into one. Julita started competing in 2016. She quickly realized that running with a dog is going well and in the 4th competition she took part in she won Polish Championships. Julita is a current Polish Champion, European Champion, and brown medalist of World Championships. She is a part of the national team of the Polish Dog Sled Sports Association and has an International Master Sport class. Owns three dogs – Dzyndzel, Mazak and Nugat.

Monika Kowalska
I’m Monika Kowalska, a Zootechnics Engineer, Veterinary Technician, and primarily a trainer and active obedience competitor. I lead three female dogs – Turbo, Quattro, and Honda, for whom I traded city life for the view from my bedroom to the training ground. I’m the founder of the Uniwerek ObiFru school, where I share my passion for sport obedience, living by the motto “No dreams are too big, no dreamers are too small.”
In 2023, I represented Poland at the Obedience World Championships in Spain with Turbo, the youngest dog at the event. My journey in this sport began with Fruzia, a Maltese, with whom I stood on the podium multiple times and reached the highest obedience class. When not training or dealing with injuries, I explore mountain trails, forest corners, or MTB paths with my dogs
