See it a little larger and with 'sound' at YouTube!
Speaking of elephants, did anyone see "Greatest American Dog" last Wednesday? They had a 'challenge' for the owners and their dogs that involved an elephant lumbering towards the dog while they were supposed to "STAY" in this small circle! A little Maltese was the smallest and the most courageous! He "SAT" there while the elephant was close enough to pick up a banana a few feet away from him!
FR is still so unstable I can't take it. I just don't have the patience to wait it out.
Great animation!
I saw that! Lori and her little Maltese have such a bond, don't they? And that little Maltese was so brave! Then, last night, Lori didn't have to scream, yell and threaten her dog to get her to stay through the distractions of the other contestants. There was a communication between the two of them that went beyond words. Victoria, the judge, was sure impressed.
The only problem I am having with the show is that it does put stress on the dogs, and that bothers me. Like that other competition that involved trust. Jumping off a platform into mid-air is not normal behavior and being forced to stay in a circle while others offered them treats and tried to call the dog to them, seems just mean to me. I was so happy to see that one guy release his dog from that tree stump because he felt he had made him stay too long, even though it meant he wouldn't win that competition. My dogs are very well behaved and obedient, but I just don't think I could put them through those kinds of challenges in order to win a competition.
Wee!
Looks like fun...cute idea.
