Mari Leiviskä FIN

“Dogs and dog sports have been an important part of my life already in
my childhood, we had Golden Retrievers in my family. A Hovawart Ronja was my first own dog and we trained and competed in agility and obedience together. Now I have three Border Collies: a 13-year old Puuma (Nordic, Finnish, Danish, Swedish and Norwegian Obedience Champion, Finnish Tracking Champion, Finnish Rally-Obedience Champion and Winner in Finnish Tracking Championships 2017), a 9-year old Roima (Nordic, Finnish, Danish, Swedish and Norwegian Obedience Champion, Tracking Open title, Winner in Finnish Obedience Championships 2019, Winner in Nordic Obedience Championships 2021 and FCI Obedience World Champion 2022) and a 4-year old Yoda (Finnish Obedience Champion). We love obedience but we also train and compete in rally-obedience, nose work, tracking and agility.”

 


Maria Danielsson SWE

“I’m Maria Danielsson and I live in Stockholm Sweden with my family and 3 Australian Kelpies. 

My passion – and leading star in training – is to always strive to learn more, to try to understand the dogs perspective and in line with that to analyse and come up with different possible training ideas and solutions to find ways to bring out the best from every dog. I love details as well as the important solid foundations and therefore put quite a lot of time and effort on that. The dogs willingness, confidence, happiness and effort as their driving force is however always priority number one!

Over the years I have competed in both search and tracking up to the highest class, but main focus is in obedience were I for example have competed in the Nordic and World Championships with two team gold.

Even though dogs always have been a huge interest of mine, horses took most of my time when I was young. But time changes, and dog training took over completely as my hobby and has continued to grow as part of my life since then.”
