Munin is a multi-talented Dalmatian succeeding in a range of disciplines. Munin won reserve best bitch at Crufts in 2004; won the Class A obedience class at the North of England's Limited Obedience Competition in 2004 and 2006; and achieved a clear round and third place at the same Club's Limited Agility Competiton in 2004. She even won the lure race at the British Dalmatian Club's Fun Day in 2005 (all that practice chasing real rabbits)! Owned and handled by Anne Dickens of Kent, Munin lives with Anne and her partner Crosbie with Munin's son Fenris (born April 2006).

She is qualified at Silver Road dog level and competed in Road Dog trials before Anne owned her own horse. She was also judged Best Condition Dog in 2004. In 2008 she excelled herself and delighted owner Anne Dickens in the Bronze Carriage Dog class requiring few of the additional reinforcing commands allowed at this level. In 2009 Munin was entered Qualification Only in the Silver Carriage Dog class. Due to scheduling problems, she was only able to complete the endurance element at the Nationals. Her obedience test was carried out by judge Alison Burgess at the 2009 SE Regional Trials to finalise her qualification as a Silver Carriage dog. One of the few dogs to hold a title at this level in both disciplines.
