I bought a book and it's talks a little about it. Sounds really cool, wondering if anyone knows anything good sites about it? Or if anyone does it, talk about it please! :D

I'm a freestyle addict since two years. I have participated in two freestyle training classes and have done two competitions. Saffie, my border collie crossed with a dutch hunting breed, is my freestyle dog. Boy knows some easy tricks too.

I love learning Saffie new tricks, and find most of them easy to learn. Saturday we have our next competition, and I'm so nervous :p
We are just beginners, it's all about the fun. I hope someday we will accomplish something, but right now I just want to learn how to do a good routine. Saffie is doing great, but I'm having difficulty doing everyting (move myself, move my dog, pay attention to the music) at the same time.

I posted here earlier, but I think it got deleted or something?

Kai and I just started freestyle and it seems like so much fun! It's a lot less stressful than agility class for both of us. If your dog likes learning tricks, you will have a blast.

Thanks guys! I've been thinking about joining in on it..Something for fun and to build our bond and confidence! I'm not sure If I absolutely will be doing it, but It's something I'm really interested in. I'm thinking about going to watch a few demonstrations or competitions..If I can find any up where I live..;)

Sequoyah loves tricks, and knows quite a few - I have Carolyn Scott's tapes and a couple of Mary Ray's books, so..... you never know.
