Four year old agility/obedience/trick dog Dash performing his first "planned" gig with the largest variety show in the Midwest, Dead Man's Carnival. We had a great time! Most of the crowd is out of camera view, but there was actually a sold-out crowd of 150, plus the 30 or so musical and circus performers, stage crew, etc. Very enthusiastic crowd--we really enjoyed performing there.

We'd prepared a routine assuming we'd be on stage and have audience on 1 side. We hadn't realized it would be a circus-in-the-round performance with audience on 4 sides. So we had to adapt by doing some tricks twice in different directions. Dash did great with the changed routine, crowds and loud, live band playing right out of camera range. Super little guy!
