After 15 years of working in international wealth management, I founded the dog care service 'Citydogs' in 2008. Later I added our foundation for street dogs in Romania, 'Citydogs4Streetdogs' and our unique dog shelter park 'The Dog Rose'. Our street dogs Dillie and Roma & Pipa were and are my most important teachers. Born on the street, they show interesting behavior patterns that I have to deal with intensively to make them happy in our city life.
Thanks to 'Dillie' there is 'Citydogs' because Dillie preferred to walk together with all our clients' dogs than with me alone. Thanks to Roma there is 'Citydogs4Streetdogs' because we couldn't leave all his companions in Bucharest alone. Since 2013, I also give the mandatory SKN courses. I like to share my knowledge about dog psychology, which I am allowed to expand and practice every day in my work, with all my students.
The human-dog team has existed for many 1000 years. The basis of a great team is love, respect and responsibility, which is achieved through successful communication. Human-Dog team building is the passion of the Citydogs and Citydogs4Streetdogs team.
I completed my training as an animal keeper EFZ in 2012 and was able to gain my experience with dogs until now in animal shelters. My dog Lola accompanies me every day, we visited the agility together, but because of the age of Lola we go now a little quieter through life. I am very happy to join the Citydog team as a pack leader. I love nature very much. That's why I'm even more pleased that I can now spend a large part of my working time with the dogs on pack walks in the forest. Above all, the personal bond with each individual dog and their intensive care is very important to me. At Citydogs no day is like the other. To be made to smile again and again by our darlings and to watch how happy all our dogs are, that makes our job a dream job and unique for me and Lola.
Hello my name is Melanie Delgado. Since I was a child I always wanted to work and live with animals. At the age of 16 I adopted my dog Coco and attended the companion dog training 1 with her. After finishing school I did the apprenticeship as an animal keeper EFZ. I worked at the shelter for five years and was mainly responsible for the dogs. Walking and training with the dogs has always been a lot of fun for me. I wanted to deepen this more at Citydogs, where I take the time to fulfill all the needs of the dogs.
