The past weeks have gone by rapidly! It is so exciting to begin with something totally new. We truly hope you enjoy being part of the OneMind Dogs Pack. We have received great feedback and the members have already been incredibly active taking part in the community.
The OneMind Dogs Pack already has over 1200 registered members from different countries all around the world. We feel very fortunate to have such versatility in those different countries and cultures. We can enjoy agility and training more when we do it together, rather than by ourselves. Thank you to all our visitors, fans and members for welcoming our site in such a short period of time!
Agility training challenge
Last week we published our first agility training challenge. The ultimate goal for the challenges is to inspire handlers to continue to train at a higher level with their dogs. For the first challenge, that mission was definitely completed! We have had several videos shared on Youtube from all around the world. Within just 24 hours we received our very first challenge training video posted by Stacy from Australia. All the videos shared on Youtube and Facebook present incredibly stunning performances! The passion, fun and inspiration are really conveyed to the viewers.
Watch all the different videos shared at our Youtube channel. If you don’t find your video on the playlist, then share the (Youtube) link to our Facebook page. Here you can also find few tips on how you can train this first challenge, even without weaves. Please keep in mind that you don’t have to be a pro to publish videos, we encourage handlers of all skill levels to attempt the challenges and share the videos. By sharing the fun and passion you can always inspire others; no matter which skill level you are.
“It’s not a website. It’s a community”
OneMind Dogs is an interactive community and media with a never-ending development with our members. We publish new material regularly to support the learning and development of our members. We consider the educational side to be highly important, but at the end of the day we place the enjoyment of doing agility as our number one! All learning and training should be fun for you and your dog. We love to train agility and our dogs are the most important things to us. We want to communicate these values in everything that we do and it’s great to see that the OneMind Dogs Pack shares the same values as we do. We can all enjoy the beauty of agility together!
We want to enhance the learning process on a deeper level rather than just by watching educational videos. OneMind Dogs is here for you, so please reveal your thoughts and ideas to us. We are happy to receive all kind of feedback in order to develop and reach the common goal of connecting you better with your dog. Drop us an email whenever you feel so - we’re also present on Twitter; it’s a quick way to communicate, share thoughts and ideas and to get prompt answers to questions.
If you would like to contribute more to the community, for example with a blog or an article, just email us your ideas. There is always interest in reading agility news and happenings in your hometown or country! We always love to share personal stories about you and your dog, your training and how agility and OneMind Dogs is part of your life! Also, if you know someone special that you think should be introduced to us, let us know.

Next Level
We have received inquiries about the Next Level. Next Level is a successful entity of several agility seminar days organized in Finland. The goal of the Next Level training program is to give handlers a complete understanding of the OneMind Dogs foundation, which will set the one for a successful agility career. The most recent program was held in the first half of 2013 and lasted for 11 days. Soon everyone interested in OneMind Dogs will able to attend the seminar online as an observer.
It’s a separate training program; you only need to be registered at OneMind Dogs to purchase and take part in it. We will publish more specific information and details about Next Level in December.
Let’s keep up the good spirit. Let’s train, discuss and enjoy everything we do everyday!
