musik.gif - 14527 Bytes "DEFINITION OF FREESTYLE from the CFF rules:
Canine Freestyle is a choreographed performance with music, illustrating the training and joyful relationship of a dog and handler team.
The objective of Freestyle is to present the dog to his best advantage in a creative and artistic manner.
A Freestyle presentation is always accompanied by music selected to suit the rhythms of the dog,
Freestyle should demonstrate, with appropriate music, the grace, beauty and intelligence of the dog working in harmony with the handler.
A Freestyle presentation should clearly show the dog's athleticism, attentiveness, flexibility and training.
All handler movements should complement and enhance the dog's movements.
Teamwork is essential.
The dog should always be treated with honor and respect."

Our new song is named "Air". It has a Spanish sound and my friends call it our Zorro song :-) So when we choreographed it I visualized Zorro with his big black cape swirling and flowing in the air..... In our routine Acer is the cape. He flows and swirls with the music and his black coat shimmers in rhythm.

This routine is brand new...not quite ready for competition but Acer did really well despite me. I got lost about 1 minute into the routine and left out a few things. Fortunatly we recovered quickly and only a few close friends knew...WHEW! We still earned a placement!!

Here is a sample of our new song, "Air" by Jesse Cook
RealPlayer is needed.
