That time of year has rolled around again: in March the Birmingham NEC will get the usual annual onslaught of slobber, shed hair and pee-patches.
Every year somebody volunteers to bring a dog into the performance ring and do a dance with it [Insert '2 left feet' gag]. This is almost invariably some kind of suitably upper-class swing or jazz style arrangement. (Except for last year when about 20 golden retriever owners walked around with their dogs on leads and called that a dance).
Very clever I'm sure, but personally I'm fed up of the nice, safe swing routines. So I'm calling on you to describe an alternative dance.
Poodle Thirsty
The song is Ace of Spades. A team of 6 owners, each with something big, shaggy and not-too-friendly-looking perform daredevil stunts on the famous green felt.
As part of the routine, when Lemmy shouts, I don't want to live forever the owners set the dogs alight and they roll over, putting themselves out.

I'd like to see three dogs taking it in turns with a single bitch to the theme from classic 70s childrens show Handfull of Songs. It is essential that the bitch be one of those Paris Hilton Dogs. I can't get a picture up because I can't remember the breed. Grrr! Woof.
We've got a handfull of songs to sing you. New songs and blue songs and songs that bring you Happiness, more or less. Bah bah baaah.

Something a little hip hop? Electro boogaloo, maybe? Man alive, I'd love to see a rabid chihuahua back flipping into a head spin. With no lino.

Breakdancing Chihuahua? Lol!

Can you dress the dogs up in special dancing outfits? That would be excellent. I'd put a load of Airedales in checked shirts and stetsons and make them line dance. I even considered the possibility of fashioning little cowboy boots out of cardboard tubes for them but I think that might end up hindering their ability to dozy doe.
I've been thinking about this a bit too much, haven't I?

Once you've been dog handled, you never go back baby.

Excellent choice of thread.
Sidney. Would your dogs look like this?

It is good that they indicate which is the front and back of the dogs, or who knows what could happen.
Also you are all being quite entertaining today, good stuff. I think my sniggering is starting to irritate the grumpy woman in my office. Keep it up.

Lol, yes they would. Only with big russety beards like the ones Airedales have. I might even make one of them wear spectacles too, so that they looked like the professor of the group.
