THE popularity of a dancing dog, which hit the headlines in The Northern Echo, is continuing to soar.
Three-year-old Joshua, a rottweiler from Ravensworth, North Yorkshire, has already appeared at Lanchester Show, in County Durham.
The pedigree hound and his owner, Heather Stevens, 46, have taken part in competitions across the country, but need to practise in front of large audiences to improve their act.
And another opportunity has now emerged for Joshua to perfect his routines.
Members of the dog training club at Shotley Bridge, County Durham, saw Miss Stevens' plea in The Northern Echo.
They are now contacting her to see whether Joshua could make an appearance at one of the club's meetings in September.
Marie O'Brien, of the club, said: "They can both come here to do their act and gain a bit more confidence in front of people."
