I am Zosia Mrożek, I live in Cracow, Poland. I am a dog owner, dog sports competitior and dogfrisbee UpDog and USDDN judge.
I was fascinated by dogs since early childhood, I remember begging my parents to buy or adopt a dog for years. I remember taking my neighbours’ dogs for walks or training tricks and agility with my Grandma’s dachshund, because I didn’t have my own dog but I was so in love with these little creatures.
Marley was a gift from my parents after those years of begging. I was a very young girl then but I exactly remember how I felt that day when we got that fluffy pup from his breeder. It was the best day of my life. He was the first dog I was to train from the very beginning, I made a lot of mistakes but well, noone can be perfect. We’ve tried many different sports and I fell in love with this kind of life.
And then, in 2018, there was Jimmy. He wasn’t really planned, it was more of a spontaneous decision. I liked the breed, followed many breeders at that time but I thought that there is no chance of getting a dog in like, two or three years. But… I saw one chocolate puppy with a heart on his forehead on my Facebook wall and I loved him to bits from the first sight. I wrote Zuzana, the breeder, she told me he’s still available and that’s when a great adventure started…
This is where all love and tears and joy exist. This is the place. This is where we live.

We live together in Cracow, Poland. We wander around a lot in search of new, beautiful places. I love to photograph my dogs in different sceneries, these photos is my favourite way of making memories stay with us forever. When we don’t get lost in some nearby forests, we are training dogfrisbee, competing together, showing our freestyle performances. The feelings which are with me when we play at the field are truly magical. In the winter, when there are no disc dog competitions held, we devote ourselves to sheep herding – a thing for which border collies were originally bred and still are. We try a lot of different dog sports too, like agility, obedience, flyball. We’ve even been to a search and rescue training. I like to live so many different adventures with my dogs, I love to show them many beautiful and interesting things. By giving them their best lives, I am living my own best life.
And who am I personally? I’m Zosia, besides dogs I am interested in music, biology and psychology. I love attending concerts, I listen to many different generes, depending on my mood – starting from rock and metal, going through classical and soundtracks, ending on electronic and techno. I admire watching movies, especially horrors, dramas and criminals but also wonderful Ghibli studio animations. Hayao Miyazaki and Tim Burton are my gurus.
I love starry skies, pine forests, gentle sea breeze, early autumn’s colours, good italian food, cozy blankets, warm cocoa, iced coffee and dogs’ fluffy fur. I love discovering new places, catching feelings on the photos I make, telling good stories by the fireplace, dreaming best dreams and then making them a part of my life. I do what I love and I love what I do.
