When the floats begin rolling down the streets of Pasadena, Calif., on New Year's Day, K9s4COPS will be among the 45 entries in the 125th annual Rose Parade. It will be the only Texas non-profit represented along the 5.5 mile course.

The coup was the brainchild of K9s4COPS founder Kristi Schiller, who felt that the parade with an estimated one billion viewers would be an effective way to expand the K9 audience nationally and internationally. Financed through private donations, the float featuring a larger-than-life German shepherd is designed by Tim Estes, owner of Fiesta Parade Floats. That company has won the Sweepstakes award for best design in each of the last 20 years.

I want one.

I mean, seriously. Who wouldn’t want a dog big enough to poop on an entire lawn at once? As long as it wasn’t your own lawn, of course.

Better disarm all the cops on the parade route.

Will the dog come after or before the same-sex “marriage” ceremony?

The dog float will anger the Muslim community. This may go bad.

Good grief! Is that supposed to be a dog—or a bumble bee?

The German Shepherd is one of my favorite breeds, tho I was never able to own one. In my next life, maybe................

Haha....possibly....I do think the choice of yellow for the remainder of the float was a poor choice.

Will have to forego that treat. NOT watching the thing. Have no desire to be slapped in the face by the homosexual mafia. I think a lot of people will skip it this year. At least I hope so.

Ah, yes. The iconic drug dog. Responsible for cavity searches of innocent people everywhere!

What would happen if the Rose Bowl Parade lost all of their Duck Dynasty viewers because they chose to flaunt perversion this year? I would love to find out. I will not be seeing the dog this year.

I’m lucky, I have two living with me. 6 year old brother and sister. They are my pride and joy. They are from the same litter and they got big altho their coats are different, the female is med long and the male is short. She weights 80 and he is 115.

I tell them all the time, “ I’m glad they came to live with me. “
