Tanja Kurikka

star OneMind Dogs Coach
When Tanja is handling, she always wants to find the best and safest lines for her dogs. “I always want to be fair to my dogs. We love to go fast together and we love to run. But I also teach my dogs to be skillful and to be able to do things themselves.”
Tanja’s passion is training and having fun with her dogs. She emphasizes the importance of teaching solid foundations. It’s also very important for her to have a great relationship with her buddies – and that includes doing tricks!
As a coach, Tanja is patient and positive, but also persistent. Coaching is her passion. Her favorite things to teach are foundations for puppies as well as techniques and course work. “I love it when my students learn something and team up with their dogs,” Tanja says.
“What I love most about agility is learning, doing things together, enjoying and having fun with my best friends and team mates. Whether you are aiming for the World Championships or just want to have fun with your dog, agility is a great sport!”
