Emma Saeedi, Norway

“My name is Emma, and with my almost 3years old danish-swedish farmdog we train and compete in agility! We live in Norway, and started with agility for just under a year ago. But, in short time we have learnt so much, and we are evolving every day ♡

The reason why we wanted to join team Aginotes is that we love how easy and smart the app is! How you easy can track your progress and go back to see what you need to train on! Aginotes is a must for every agilityhandler.”

Kari Massoth, the United States

“I’m really excited to join Aginotes as it’s a great place to keep all training and competition notes, because we all know it is hard keeping track of it all. I started my agility career with a Weim and Doberman. Currently I have a 4 year old and a 1.5 year old Working Kelpie to train and run. In 2019 I joined the USDAA judging staff and work as a full time Email Marketer.”

Satu Halkola, Finland

"Terrieri energiaa agilitykentillä!

Parsonit Ritu ja Uno odottavat innolla yhteistyötä AgiNotes kanssa.

AgiNotes on ollut meillä käytössä kohta vuoden päivät, ensin ilmaisversiolla ja tämän jälkeen nyt muutaman kuukauden premiumina. Sovellus on auttanut meitä pitämään kirjaa treeneistä, niin määrien kuin aiheidenkin osalta. Ritun kanssa on ollut myös mukava seurata kisanopeuksia. Treeneistä kirjaa pidettäessä saa niistä vielä lisää tehoa itse treenien jälkeenkin.

Olemme innoissamme päästessämme mukaan kehittämään sovellusta ja erilaisia haasteita muille agilityharrastajille!"

Lidia Belyaeva, Latvia

"I've been in agility since the stone age :) I fell in love with this sport from the very first training more than 25 years ago. I love everything about it: to train my own dogs, to compete with them, to train my students and judge the competitions all over the world.

The main challenge for me was to follow our training progress. I tried everything: writing notes on the paper, drawing some graphs in excel. But all this was pretty boring and time-consuming. Then I found AgiNotes! First I tried free version and I liked it a lot. Everything was so structured and easy to fill in. And most important - I could see my progress in real-time.

I decided to try premium account and it was worth every euro. I was able to add all my dogs, add notes, training schemas and videos for every training, follow on the provided graphs my most trained skills and skills which still need to be trained. It's useful also for competitions! I can add the course map, video of the run, my notes and course fault (if any) to see what I should focus more on.

I'm happy to be a part of AgiNotes team! All I can say to other agility people - just try the app, you'll like it!"

Cassiana Gusso & Renan Campos, Brazil

“We are very happy to be part of the AgiNotes team, which is made of people who share the same passion for dogs and agility!

Now we are training three dogs and as each one has their own level, weaknesses and needs, AgiNotes help us to plan our trainings, ser our goals and see our development.”

Jenna Kanniainen, Finland

“Helou! Täällä kirjoittelee Jenna 32 v, aktiivinen koiraharrastaja Oulusta. Mukana AgiNotesin tiimissä ollaan kahden harjakoirani kanssa; Vinski on 2-vuotias nakupoika ja Meeli 1-vuotias puuterityttö. Kotoa löytyy myös maskotin virkaa toimittava, 8-vuotias collie Camo.

Olen löytänyt agilityn pariin vasta vähän reilu vuosi sitten ja laji imaisi kyllä heti mukaansa. Aluksi ajattelin sen mukavana harrasteluna, mutta harrastelu vaihtui nopeasti tavoitteelliseen treenaamiseen ja tämän vuoden yksi tavoite onkin päästä starttaamaan kisat.

Personal trainerina ja hyvinvointivalmentajana tiedän, miten tärkeää treenien suunnittelu ja niiden seuraaminen on etenkin, kun tavoitteena on kehittyä. Olen perinteitä rakastava ja haluaisin kirjata kaiken ylös paperikalenteriin, mutta hyvin usein näin ei tule kuitenkaan tehtyä, etenkään heti treenien jälkeen kun asiat ovat vielä tuoreena muistissa. Siksi olenkin superinnoissani tästä! Uskon että AgiNotesin avulla saadaan treenien seuranta ja suunnittelu järjestykseen sekä tehokkaaksi työkaluksi tavoitteiden saavuttamiseksi.”

Krystyna Cisak, Poland

"Hi! I'm Krystyna and I'm running agility since 2014, currently with my trio mudi girls Cuki and Lizia and mudi x border collie mix boy Smok. I'm an agility trainer since year 2020 and I'm also training my husbands crazy mudi girls Iskra & Czara.

I love running with multiple dogs, experience how different their style can be and how I can adjust trainings to each dog individually. For us dogs go first and I make sure they enjoy every moment on field as much as we do. I also have a degree in physiotherapy so it's important for me that both sides of team do their best on the course. I'm excited to be this year's team AgiNotes!"

Victoria Eklund, Norway

“Hi, my name is Victoria and I have been training agility for 4 years with my dog Luna. She is my first dog and we tried it just for fun and got hooked. When we started competing more I saw one of my trainers using the AgiNotes app to track her train and looked it up on instagram. I thought I’d try it and it has made keeping track of what we train on when so much easier. It has also made it easier to remember what to work on after a session with a trainer. Instead of keeping 10 different notes it’s all in one app.

I also think having a young perspective in the team can be great! I’m very excited to join the team in AgiNotes and see what this year can bring.”

Anki Vikström, Finland

“I´m Anki Vikström from Finland and I’ve been doing agility since a was a junior back in the ´90s. Together with my poodle InWhite Love Twister ”Wii” we have been part of the Finnish national agility team for many years. We have several medals from the Finnish Championships, both individual and team, as well as from the Nordic Championships, which we also won individually in 2018! It has been such an experience to travel the world with my crazy, little superstar and I get so much inspiration from seeing all fantastic agility handlers and dogs out there! During the corona pandemic Wii retired and is now enjoying a more relaxed life, but trains some hoopers to stay active. Wii´s puppy Tipzy is also part of our team, but unfortunately she got injured in AWC tryouts last year and her agility future is still a bit open.

For many years I dreamed of a border collie and after our first AWC in Italy I found what I was looking for. Now I have my 7 year old Hungarian BC girl, Akira, and a new young Danish puppy called Loola. Akira is my current competiton dog. She has a lot of skills, but it’s not so easy to get all those skills to show in competitions, since she gets a bit too excited. ;) I hope we can enjoy one more healthy agility season together.

I have never been really good at keeping track of my training nor trials, and when I really tried I always forgot my notebook out in the rain or lost it somewhere. But my phone is always with me and with AgiNotes it´s easy to keep track of statistics, faults, speed and results. Now I´m looking forward to see if I can get a better clean run rate with Akira during this year. I assume my Aginotes app will also be filled with a lot of puppy training. Looking forward to that, since it´s really motivating to see the progress directly in the AgiNotes app!”

Klára Janáková, Czech Republic

“Hi! We are grateful to become a part of the AgiNotes team and the community of like minded passionate people around it.

I own 2 dogs - a competing beagle and a border collie puppy. You can imagine that each one needs something completely different in order to succeed. AgiNotes helps me to stay on top of our trainings, plan in advance, solve problems and reach our goals!”
