Light up their talented feet

Using a mirror frame with wheels, the dancing couple is in full sync on both sides, like a perfect reflection. Elke’s dedication to training Jessy is evident, and like so many of his breeds, the Border Collie Jessy is excellent, his consistent moves a testament to the hard work of both. him and Elke.

But then the music changes, and Jessy smashes the imaginary glass and rushes to Elke’s head just in time to the haunting music. A fight ensues, and Jessy pushes Elke into the mirror, trapping her in while he dances to celebrate! When the work ends with a sinister laugh, Jessy mimics the giggles of triumph over evil.

It’s not all dancing for these champions

When Elke isn’t dancing, she still trains dogs. But that’s not all the jumps. In Dogz Devotion Academy, her training center in Belgium, she teaches the puppies obedience, athletic skills, the use of scent, etc. And working with animals is Elke’s lifelong passion. She grew up on a farm, learning how to train horses and dogs. Now, that love for animals is reflected in her dancing with her beloved dog Jessy.

Despite knowing some fancy moves and enjoying the attention, Jessy still loves to be wild and have fun with her sibling dogs.
