Our hearty congratulations to Michele Pouliot and her Australian shepherd "Listo" (pronounced "Lee stow") for winning first place and both of the special Attila and Fly awards for High Technical and High Artistic merit at the 2007 International Freestyle Competition, held in Greeley, Colorado. The performing duo even received a perfect 10 from one of the judges. Michele's 8-year-old English springer spaniel "Cabo" wasn't far behind, taking fourth place. Want to learn how Michele does it? She'll be teaching sessions on freestyle and guide dog training at ClickerExpo 2008.
Way to go, Michele!

I just had time to search for a minute, and I did find this cute link to some of her freestyle footage from 2006.

It was so cute! Inspiring! What could possibly be more fun than combining the love of dogs and music? Congratulations Michele! I hope the Expo is close enough so I can afford to go and meet you in 2008!
