The background of the puppy waltz.

Waltz in D flat major (Puppy) (op.64 No.3) There are three waltzes Op.64 No.3) Op.64 * * *, which was the last waltz published by Chopin when he was alive. Among them, the third song (this song in D major) is the most famous one of Chopin's waltzes, commonly known as "Dog Waltz".

It is said that Chopin's lover george sand fed a puppy, and the puppy was interested in running after its tail. Chopin, according to george sand's request, showed the scene of "the dog spinning around" in his music and created this piece. Music goes very fast and ends in a short moment, so it is also called "instant waltz" or "one-minute waltz".
