What Is Musical Canine Freestyle?

          "Musical Freestyle" is a choreographed musical program performed by handlers and their dogs. The object of musical freestyle is to
          display the dog and handler in a creative, innovative and original dance, using music and intricate movements to showcase teamwork,
          artistry, costuming, athleticism and style in interpreting the theme of the music. Heelwork-to-Music incorporates traditional dog
          obedience and the art of dressage with the inclusion of musical interpretation, dance elements, and costuming with an emphasis on
          non-standard obedience movements. Both Musical Freestyle and Heelwork-To-Music routines should create a visually exciting display
          which is enjoyable to watch and which is equally enjoyable to dogs and handlers executing the programs. Canine freestyle is a showcase
          that truly demonstrates the joys and fun of bonding with your pet."

        Musical Canine Freestyle or just Canine Freestyle is simply dancing with dogs to music. It is a fun sport for the owners and   dogs, and the audience.

 

In order to dance with your dog(s) to music, there are some simple basic procedures that you should follow. First, you start by selecting a musical composition to which you would like to dance. It may be one particular piece or you may edit several different pieces of music to create your own special music. Once you have the music, the second step is choreographing a routine to your music. This means you should design steps and movements for yourself and your dog(s) to execute that relate to the music you have selected. They may be comprised of basic obedience steps, variations on obedience steps, dressage movements, tricks or any new step you may create. It is important to plan the steps and movements within a defined area, covering the area as fully as possible. The third step is selecting costuming for you and your dog(s). Your outfits should coordinate with the theme of the music you have selected and be pleasing to an audience.

Once you have completed these three basic steps and put it all together, you now have a musical canine freestyle performance that you can take to a demo or a competition event. At a competition, there is a fourth step you must consider-meeting the rules/guidelines defined by the governing (musical) canine freestyle organization.
