Did you get to watch it? I thought Animal Planet did a great job featuring canine musical freestyle in Dancing with Dogs last night. It showed that freestyle is a sport that everyone can enjoy, well, anyone with a sense of humor.

Seriously, one of the great things about freestyle is that anyone can play- purebred or mixed breed; old or young. They even have categories for those dogs or owners with disabilities to compete. And you don’t have to be a dancer.

Here’s a clip I found of a dachshund and her owner having a great time dancing. Watching the tail you know that dachsie is having a blast.

Interested in joining in the fun? There are groups out there where you can find people to help. The World Canine Freestyle Organization, WCFO, lists member clubs on their site. If there isn’t a club nearby, join an email list. Two I belong to that have members always willing to help are World Canine Freestyle, the WCFO list and Sonoran Canine Freestylers . Both lists have members from all around the world with a variety of breeds. So come on, give a try. You’ll both enjoy it.
