The Weekend Wrap Up


Doggy Dancing Strikes a Pose

Doggy Dancing continues to shake hips and wag tails in Great Britain and beyond. This weekend, a select few in Manchester witnessed a show of choreographed pup precision.

Click here to check out the hilarious video clips of Carrie Neri and her furry partner, Calloway, rocking out to their routine in front of a panel of World Canine Freestyle Association (WCFA) judges. The art of doggy dancing has roots in the 80's and is being slowly perfected. There are a few kinks yet to be worked out; some doggy dancers argue that participants should avoid wearing flashy attire as to take away from the integrity of the piece. Clearly, the WCFA has no qualms with a few costumes.

Similar movements are gaining popularity in the United States and Japan, promising more entertainment on the international canine scene.
