I've seen some pretty amazing footage before of trained dogs but this tops them all by far. What really sets this apart from most animal stunts is the length, it's pretty much a series of continuous actions over a 3 minute span.

Says 1 year of preparation, I wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't 1 year every day for 8 hours a day.JB Sparks wrote:That was cool, the hours of training that must of taken.
I can get my dog to jump and grab a treat from my month on command and that took a few days. I have it down pretty good now, she doesn't even really grab but instead kinda lets it drop into her mouth mid air. Very gentle dog, maybe only one other dog I have owned I'd trust to do that. Now I feel like I need to teach her to dance around in circles....
There's a video on youtube I can't find right now of a couple with four or five of the same type dog that was really good, it was footage from the 60 or early 70's. I can't find it, that was only thing I've seen comparable to this.
that dog is a better dancer than I am and steadyer on her 2 feet than smitty that was fantastic
