Dance Lessons, $1

I suppose it was only a matter of time. Nigel has taken up dancing of late, and he really does enjoy spending his free time hanging out in the river. I also noticed him paying very close attention to Dancing With the Stars this season. And speaking in an Irish accent at times.

Still, I was not fully prepared for what I found when Sola and I took a walk down to the river this morning.

What do you think? Have we unwittingly discovered the other Lord of the Dance?

  7. He's good but he ain't Gilles Marini...I am talking about the human. Nigel's got it all over the human!!!

    I suspect after his gig on Grey's Anatomy we will see Nigel on Dancing with the Stars, and he will win!

  23. I can see already where this is going. First it is Riverdancing, then Dancing with the Stars and of course, with Nigel, it will eventually end up Dirty Dancing.

    Just sayin'.............

  24. OH! I just remembered it started out with the pole dancing, so I guess it STARTED with Dirty Dancing. So like Nigel.

    ReplyDelete
  25. I've clogged for years, and always wondered if I could teach my greys. We might have to enroll them in Nigel's class...

  29. Trixie & Tori want to adopt Nigel, so he can teach them to dance. :)

    ReplyDelete
  30. Well, I do think Nigel dances better than most humans I know!

    ReplyDelete
  31. Combine these moves with the stripper pole, and Nigel could be bringin' in a pretty penny to the household in no time..

  32. Fantastic post :)
    We love it !!

  33. Very clever! Great dancing!!!

  34. Thanks for not costuming the dog dancer.

    ReplyDelete
  35. I think Nigel should go on "So You Think You Can Dance" where Nigel Lythgoe is the executive producer (also executive producee of American Idol). You could start a Nigel dancing club. Can you sing too? :)

  36. WHOOO HOOOOOOOOOOO! This is fantastic!!

  39. Hi,

    How funny!!

    Mommy just got a report on Ray. He is doing well.
    He is the 3rd dog DROH has taken in in the year with burns. Harris County is investigating the case and have a suspect they are questioning...a teenager. I hope they throw whoever did this jail for life.

  49. Nigel looks good, but why does that Flatley guy (?) look like his belly is made of wax? He's creepy. Nigel should break away and start his own troop.
