I love it! Next the electric slide...
Great job, and maybe if we can get enough people doing this we can inspire each other to keep at it!

Fantastic! I've been waiting for this movie, and it's every bit as good as I expected.
OK, so what inspired you to teach him the Hokey Pokey anyway? That has to be a story in itself. lol
We are actually working on the Cha-Cha.... we were working on that when it became obvious that the Hokey Pokey was do-able. The cha-cha rock step is easy, the sidestep is doable, but the change over is tough. We really need some music so he could hear it.
I want to get the ears into the Hokey Pokey, but trying to teach Cracker that he can control his ears is a deep awakening for me. I realized that it's teaching him to "lie" about his emotions, to fake curiosity in some sense. I don't know if he can do it. He has to overcome the instinct for putting his ears back in concentration in order to put them forward. The jury is out on this one. Right now he can manage to bend his poll down and flick an ear forward for one second, but if he concentrates too much, it is not possible at all.
Great! that looks like fun
