Dancing Dog in the Final
Tina and Chandi.
Tina and her dancing dog, Chandi have made it through to the final of Britain’s Got Talent 2010. 

Winning the most public votes on Tuesday evening, Tina and Chandi have flown through into the final of Britain’s Got Talent 2010, due to be aired on Saturday 5 June. They will go up against the likes of Tobias Mead, Spelbound and Connected.

Tina (37) always wanted a Blue Merle Border Collie and just over 11 years ago she met Chandi (now 12) who was dumped at Telford dog pound aged 4 months. As soon as Tina got Chandi home she started teaching her tricks, and when she was 9 months they entered their first competition together. Currently Chandi is Crufts champion for freestyle, international freestyle and heel work to music.
