It takes more than a pair of working lungs to call life a living.

My name is Anja Troha, I am 24 years old, living in Ljubljana, the capital of Slovenia.

My dogs are my lifestyle and are the inspiration behind most of the biggest decisions that have shaped my life.

I’ve grown up surrounded by all kind of animals but one wish was always there; To have my very own dog. Vicky was born in May 2010. She has opened my eyes in so many ways and forever changed my outlook on life.

Vicky’s 2nd litter was born in June 2018; I kept a puppy called Tuvalu and life with her never gets boring! She’s WILD on four paws and is continuing to teach me a ton about dogs, their behaviours and dog training.

 

Through blending my passions together I spend a lot of my time traveling, creating videos and photographing dogs, friends, my life and just whatever adventures life may bring. I am constantly trying to improve and expand my knowledge and I enjoy sharing my creations with the world through Instagram, YouTube and Facebook.

I started my own YouTube channel in 2008 with some very simple videos which grew into a little tiny production named after my biggest inspiration, Jolly Vicky.  And there’s always more to come. As of 2013 I started offering photo shoots as I wanted to share the joy that having photos of my dogs brings me, with others.

I’m in love with starry nights, snowy hikes, chasing the sunset, lens flares, puppy smell and happy people, the outrageous beauty of the wild mountain, the forest and the ocean. The new sights, sounds, scents and tastes. Those campfire conversations, never ending stories, the shared experiences, the making of life-enriching memories. I believe in simple living. I hate routine and I love changes. Always seeking undiscovered places, great adventures, different perspectives, spontaneous travels and exciting  opportunities. I love meeting new people, hearing their stories, learning from them and sharing my knowledge. The way my girls thrive through everyday adventures is contagious and makes me want to pursue this dream of traveling full time.

 

I have deeply hidden and inarticulate desire for something beyond the daily life.

I own a kennel called ”Doggone Jolly’s” established in 2014 with my very first litter of Border Collies. With the idea of my ‘ideal’ border collie, my wish is to continue breeding in the future as well.
