Freestyle Fun with Xena and Chia

Published on by Xena, Lucy and Chia

We finally, after 87 months, went back to the Obedience Club of Chattanooga to work on our Freestyle. We had good news, too. Because I, Chia, had never titled (cause I just started) we could start as a brace at level 2B.
Xena: These folks might not know what a brace is, Chia, so I’ll explain. A brace is when there is one person (Mommy) with two dogs (me and Chia).
Chia: Well some of them might not know what Freestyle is either. I’ve head Mom explain it to people so many times that I’ve got that down. “clears throat” Freestyle is coordinated dancing between a person and a dog, where the dog has as much say in what happens as the person.” (I really like that last part!)
OK, now that we have all our definitions in place, I’ll continue. We were first told that we had to start at level 3.The reason that starting at 2B is a good thing is that we don’t have to do some of the more advanced moves and we can make our routine a whole minute shorter. And that means Mom’s aging brain can actually remember it, BOL!
Xena: That wasn’t nice, Chia.
Chia: I’m just repeating what I heard Mom say, Xena.

Xena: Ok, ok. What we’ve got to show you today is something fun. Miss Julia, our friend and trainer, presented a little challenge to everyone. She handed each person a slip of paper that had 2 words written on it…words that were opposites. Then the person had help their pup to illustrate those opposites with a short routine and everyone else was to guess what the words were. We were all given 10 minutes to work on it. Ours was fun and easy and made folks smile. See if you can guess what the two opposite words are. You know, like light and dark (not our words, so don’t guess that). The video is only about 14 seconds long, so be sure to watch, OK? And you might want to mute your device. There’s a distracting dog screaming in the background.

Can you guess our two opposite words?

Can you?

OK, you probably guessed. It’s two directions. Do you know which two? Let us know in your comments, and we’ll wag and tell you you’re right!!
