Last year I was invited to perform at the Keystone Dachshund Races during their lunch break, it was my very first performance ever as a young and inexperienced 1 year old! I thought I did ok, considering I was new to the game and had only learned most of my tricks in a matter of a few weeks. You can watch my performance from last year here. (I’m WAY better at my tricks now!)
Well this year when they invited me back to perform, I knew I had to up the anti a little. So since my bestest performing pony pal, Minnow, couldn’t come with me – I asked my pal Trooper to fill in for him. Now Trooper is new to the whole performing thing, and I told him he had to learn a whole bunch of new tricks if he wanted to perform with me.
In the end we put on a Super entertaining duel between two friends. Here’s a taste of how it all went down:
(P.S. if you want the full effect – with my super awesome hero music – you’ll have to catch one of my live performances! Apparently youtube isn’t super music friendly!)
Performing at the Dachshund Races is very hard. Because not only does the stage smell like a bazillion other doxies (butt sniffing heaven!), but it is also littered with dropped treats. Talk about hitting the jackpot, bacon bits, hot dogs, cookies and more! It’s super hard to concentrate on your super tricks when working for treats seems pointless since free ones are on the floor!
But, me and Trooper pulled it off, and I’m sure we made a few people giggle!
Better luck winning the trophy next year Trooper! This super doxie is unstoppable!
Ammo,
I lost my two dachsunds after a long and happy life and sometimes watching you makes those great memories fresh. So a big thank you to your mom and dad. I can’t have a dog now since they don’t allow pets, so thanks for the memories!
So glad to hear my adventures can bring a smile to your face! Thanks for reading! 🙂
