Holly is just under 21" at the shoulder
Holly demonstrating the "curtsey" (she does left paw over right too)
Endorse, Paw and Chin. Quite hard when the object is a hard rolly ball.

Not just "Hold" but "Hold and stand on your hind legs" |

Holly is owned and trained by expert handler, Jill Davis.
These shots were taken in March 2006, just before Holly came into season, so her coat is not looking as luxurious as it will when she’s finished her season.
Jill competes in Obedience and Heelwork to Music competitions and demonstrations and is a very kind and gentle trainer.
I would have no hesitation in recommending this dog and handler combination to anyone.
They were invited to perform a Heelwork to Music demonstration at Crufts this year in front of several thousand people so Holly is not shy of cameras and crowds. She understands 200 words of command so is able to perform a huge variety of moves and can learn a new move in just a few minutes with the aid of a clicker and several pieces of cheese!
