Forget Dancing With the Stars – I’m Dancing With My Dog!

Several months ago I was looking for a new activity to do with my 14 year old, deaf dog with hip dysplasia. So we started dancing!

The sport of Canine Freestyle is great because we can move at Kalee’s pace and do moves on the flat. Quite honestly, her recent deafness is the biggest challenge since you aren’t supposed to use hand signals when competing. We aren’t at the competition level – yet – but I’ll contact the World Canine Freestyle Organization to check on rules for deaf dogs before we get there.

I’ll let you know what they say!
