Paws n Music was the first group or association to be formed in the UK, way back in April 2000, dedicated to the promotion of the very new and innovative sport of moving to music with a dog, the sport which is now known world-wide as HTM or Freestyle. The Association became the first KC Registered HTM club in April 2003.

Paws n Music is dedicated to providing opportunities for handlers interested in the sport of dogs and music that will give them understanding, knowledge and skills of dog training in conjunction with musical expression, to enable them to demonstrate, compete or just have a great fun time with their dog.

There are competitions and events, our now envied Progress Awards Assessment scheme, workshops, videos and booklets, a web site with members portal, an e-mail list and the quarterly newsletter packed full of tips, information, results and articles.

Paws n Music has also led the way by providing a forum and opportunity to develop and maintain rules and judging regulations for the sport, with judging workshops and apprentice judges ‘sitting in’ on the competitions, learning the art of adjudication.

Join us and find out about having real fun with your dog!
