Super Dogs!

Yesterday, Georgia, Laurie and I went to see a dog show called Super Dogs. It was held at the Canadian hockey arena. It...was...HUGE. I asked Laurie if all sports stadiums were THAT big, and she said yes! It was way too big, though. 

When the show started, an announcer came out, and introduced the dogs and their trainers. Through out the entire show, amazing tricks were preformed. Dancing, jumping, running, obstacle courses, frisbee throwing, and more! Eventually, a dog named Pot Roast came out onto the stage. We all looked at this cute, but fat english bulldog, and his flat face, wondering how HE could catch frisbees. But apparently, he couldn't. The announcer introduced him with "This is Pot Roast. Pot Roast has never caught a frisbee in his whole life. Probably because he has no nose." The whole crowd laughed, and sure enough, poor little Pot Roast didn't catch a single frisbee. One even hit him on his head....

Also, there was a dog named leap, who we saw jump over some pretty intense jumps. Leap holds the world record for highest jump preformed by a dog! The last jump she jumped over, was the same height as her record. It was taller then her trainer and the same height as the announcer. It looked like it was 5.5-6 feet tall!  She was amazing!

Through out the entire show, a Boston Terrier preformed a few tricks. Every time he came out, the crowd yelled "boo"! And the announcer called him a "Boston Terrorist"! And said "he's a BOSTON Terrier. He's born to do nothing."! Why did everyone hate this poor dog? Because he's a BOSTON Terrier. Boston is Canada's rival in hockey. I'm just like "...are...you...serious..." it's completely ridiculous to hate the poor dog just because everyone here is so obsessed with hockey, that's all they think about! (relating back to my previous blog about hockey) I mean seriously! Get over it already people! You're at a circus of dogs, and all you can think about is your sport?! Sigh, Canadians might even be worse then Americans... they're certainly more competitive....

Anyway, I had lots of fun! Seeing all the dogs gave Laurie hope that she could train one of our dogs, Rosie to dance too! I think it's hopeless, though. Rosie wouldn't do what we told her to do if the world depended on it! She's super cute, but cooperative and helpful are two things she's just not. Well, at least this should be funny to watch, right? Good luck Laurie! (You'll need it)

Until next time, 

XOXO
