A video came to us today that left me speechless.
I love border collies, and I am rarely surprised by the amazing things they do, but this video of a border collie named Larry dancing with his owner in the Dog Dance World Championships in the Netherlands blew me away.
It is amazing in its own right, but astonishingly beautiful, a testament to the connection between these remarkable dogs and human beings.
You could actually try watching this.
I get a lot of videos in the mail, and I very rarely put them up on the blog. This one is really worth watching. Trust me. Come and see.
Wow! What Grace! Thank you so much for sharing this video with us. I love Border Collies.
Here I am minding my business all by my self here in canada. And it’s a such a blast. What a lovely lovely thing. So glad we found it john
Wow!
What an amazing video. Canine Freestyle is such fun to watch, and photograph. I have a very petite friend who dances with her Newfie…and has had me photograph a few performances. I sometimes forget to breathe while watching.
That was just amazing! Love Border Collies!
I’m the one who sent this to Maria as a FB message because I thought of her videos with her belly dancing, and I know from both your blogs what an intelligent, energetic dog Fate is, and it immediately brought them to mind. (I don’t like to post things on people’s timelines, which is why I sent it to Maria as a “pm.”)
A VT FB friend had posted the video on her page. She raises and trains Golden Retrievers for both obedience and agility-and a couple of them do canine freestyle as well.
I’m glad you and Maria both enjoyed it.
I have never posted a comment before but this video blew me away. 4 minutes of dancing must have taken 1000’s of hours of practice. What a beautiful sight
Here’s another good one-Mary Ray-heelwork to music
Elegant, powerful, thanks for healing energy, Jon Katz
Healing energy!! Well said. Ditto. That’s what your Bedlam Farm writing has been for me.
I appreciate that you share your growing up journey with us. It helps me to “grow up” too.
