Paws n Music Association
Always The First
President - Mary Ray
Welcome to the Paws n Music Association website
Founded in April 2000 as the first Heelwork to Music group in the UK, Paws N Music supports the promotion and development of this wonderful sport which provides unique opportunities to have fun with your dog.
The combination of music and dog allows handlers to demonstrate their skills and partnership. The flexibility of the sport allows a choice of music and movements and so it can be enjoyed by any age of handler and any breed of dog.
Training for heelwork and freestyle develops the dog both mentally and physically, and enhances the relationship between dog and handler. In addition Paws N Music offers the disciplines of Musical Dressage and Dancing with Dogs as extra classes at all events.
The aims of Paws N Music include:
- providing opportunities for handlers interested in the sport to explore a range of formats at events held by the Association
- helping to develop understanding and knowledge of dog training in conjunction with musical expression
- Supporting the dissemination of information
- Providing and support educational opportunities for learning within the sport
- Promoting demonstrations and awareness of the sport
- Offering Kennel Club Licensed competitions around the UK
- Developing new handler skills through the Progress Award system
