Given the good work I have seen Richard Curtis do I expected better from the book. Although there is some good information re performance, I would have liked to have seen more information on how to achieve the moves. There are better books out there to help with this form of doggy dancing

I have been using this book for many months and am amazed at how easily my dog learns most tricks following these directions. There is a good variety of tricks, plus ideas for how to use them in a dance. It also briefly covers music and putting a dance together. It is thorough, but concise enough to allow me to spend more time training than reading.

I was captivated when I read in the local paper that a Florida group teaches their dogs dance routines. This was something I had to see. Now I find there is a book to teach you how to do this with your own dog.
What a challenge to train your dog to follow a dance routine with you.
Here's the book description from the author's website: "A step by step guide to freestyle which has grown into a highly competitive discipline requiring spot on sense of timing as well as obedience and agility.
In this superbly illustrated guide the author breaks down all the moves from the simplest to the more complex in an easy to read format.
Learn how to perform static, action and crowd pleaser moves.
This hard back book provides everything you need for you and your dog to become the star performers in this exciting sport."
