About us

"No matter how little money and how few possessions you own, having a dog makes you rich."

We are Maja and Darko Korošec and dogs have been an important part of our lives since our early childhood.

We have three children Maša, Matjaz and Gregor. Dogs and dog activities are our family hobby. All three kids competed in Junior Handling with great success. Matjaž and Maša represented our country in JH competition at Crufts and at World and European shows several times.

 

We live in the little idyllic village Kocno on Pohorje mountain near Maribor.  Kocno was awarded as the most beautiful village in Slovenia in 2006.

We keep a limited number of dogs at our home so they can live like real family members. Under the registered affix Moetica and Mylegend we breed Keeshond, Kleinspitz and Pomeranian on a limited basis.

Together we have won with our dogs more than 100 junior, national and international championships  and also European Winner, European Junior Winner, European Veteran Winner, World Junior Winner and World Veteran Vinner titles. We have bred many champions and also European Winners, European Junor Winners and World Junior Winners. Dogs from our breeding are successful in agility and obedience as well, one qualified also as a search and rescue dog.

Our aim is to breed typical and healthy dogs with good temperament.  Breeding is a very demanding task. We have been always trying to get the best dogs for our breeding program so we have imported dogs from a number of countries: Australia, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czechia, Estonia, Finland, France, Great Britain, Netherlands, Norway, Russia, Switzerland and the USA.

 

Although we like showing, we foremost wish to provide loving homes for our puppies where they will live like real family members.

Dogs bred by us live also in Austria, Brazil, Italy, France, Hungary, Iceland, Norway, Croatia, Germany, Luxembourg, Switzerland, Czechia, Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Great Britain, Serbia, Russia, USA, Japan and South Korea.

We are active members and have various positions in the Club for Nordic breeds and Spitz of Slovenia, Toy Club of Slovenia  and the Terrier Club of Slovenia.  We also work in different show committees and we are both international dog judges.

We show and breed German Spitz - Keeshond, Kleinspitz and Pomeranian. We have been sharing our lives with different breeds in the past and each of our dogs, past or present, made our lives happier: Papillon, Coton de Tulear, Tibetan Spaniels, Bearded Collies, Samoyeds, Scottish Terriers, Australian Silky Terriers, Kerry Blue and Bichon Frise, not to forget that long time ago Maja's first dog was a Poodle and Darko's first dog was a mixed breed farm dog.

 

Maja Korošec

Since my early childhood dogs have been an important part of my life. My first dog was a black Poodle, I was 7 years old and I was the happiest child in the world when I got her.

I became more seriously involved in the dog world when my husband and I started showing and breeding in the nineties. I also competed in agility. We became very active in different dog clubs and dogs quickly became our main hobby and occupied almost all our spare time. We moved to the country and we live in the perfect place for our three children and the dogs. Dogs are our family hobby. I have a Master’s degree in pedagogics and completed also studies in economics and psychology. I work in mental health field.

Now we show and breed German Spitz – Miniature, Keeshond and Pomeranian. In the past we have owned and/or bred a number of national, international, European and World champions in different breeds: besides German Spitz also Papillon, Coton de Tulear, Bearded Collie, Tibetan Spaniel, Scottish Terrier, Kerry Blue Terrier, Australian Silky Terrier and Samoyed. We breed under Moetica and Mylegend prefix.

I have had different positions at the Slovenian Kennel Club and different breed clubs. At present I am the president of the Club for Nordic Breeds and Spitz of Slovenia, the vice president of the Toy Club of Slovenia and a board member of the Terrier Club of Slovenia.

I became a judge in 2001 and now I am an all-breed international judge. I have judged in Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Croatia, Czechia, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Germany, Hungary, Iceland, Italy, Latvia, Luxembourg, Russia, Norway, Poland, Portugal, San Marino, Serbia, Slovakia, Sweden and of course in Slovenia.

Darko Korošec

For as long as I can remember, dogs have been a part of my life. I grew up on a small farm where we have always had one or two dogs. I got more seriously involved with dogs when my wife Maja and I bought our first dog in 1993 and we started to compete in agility and showing.

We became very active in showing, breeding and working in different dog clubs, so dogs quickly became our main hobby and occupied almost all our spare time.

We have always liked different breeds. Now we breed German Spitz – Keeshond, Miniature and Pomeranian. In the past we have owned and/or bred a number of national, international, European and World champions in different breeds: besides German Spitz also Papillon, Coton de Tulear, Bearded Collie, Tibetan Spaniel, Scottish Terrier, Kerry Blue Terrier, Australian Silky Terrier and Samoyed. We breed under Mylegend and Moetica prefix.

I am active in a number of breed clubs as a member of the Breeding Commissions, dog show organizer etc.

I became a judge in 2001. Today I am an international judge for FCI groups 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 8, 9 and 10 and I was judging besides in Slovenia also in Austria, Belgium, Bosnia and Hercegovina, Croatia, Czechia, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Latvia, Luxembourg, Norway, Poland, Portugal, San Marino, Serbia, Slovakia, Spain, Sweden and Ukraine.

I have a university degree in electrical engineering. I work as a teacher of electrical science.
