No poop left behind
Do you pick up after your dog when you are walking them away from home? Many dog owners DO NOT and by doing so set a bad example for the rest of us who do. It frustrates me when I see people walking their dogs and they don’t clean up after them. Especially when I’m traveling with eight dogs and always do! If I can pick up after my eight dogs while traveling nationwide, you can pick up after yours too. I encourage you to be a responsible pet owner and always have the motto of “No poop left behind”.

Nationwide “Stunt Dog Act” performs in Florida
Chris Perondi and Suhey Velez with Cosmo Cooper and Crazy Confetti
For the past two years, Chris Perondi the “Stunt Dog Guy” has brought his nationwide touring “Extreme Canines Stunt Dog Show” to the sunny state of Florida. Perondi was honored to perform for both the South Florida Fair in West Palm Beach and the Southwest Florida/Lee County Fair in Ft. Myers during the 2011 and 2012 fair season.
Many dogs in these communities were given a second chance on life due to the continued efforts of Perondi and his talented team of stunt dogs. Promoting pet adoption, spay/neutering, and responsible pet ownership is the ultimate goal. According to the “Stunt Dog Guy” this is done best by showing the audience what shelter dogs can do. “Any dog can be trained. It doesn’t matter the age, breed or size” says Perondi.
This professional act featured a cast of Perondi’s personal pets along with assistant handlers Suhey Velez and Steve Collier. He claims his dogs “Soar, Spin, Jump and Fly” TM. A tagline he has been using ever since he started his show. And yes they did: they soared to catch Aerobie Superdiscs (eg. flying discs), they spun on the ground, the back, and in the air, they broke high-jump records, and they flew in the sky with grace.

Perondi has produced over 6000 live shows since he sold his house and bought an RV to travel the country in 1999. The goal this year is to “Aim high and dream big” says Perondi. “To many people give up on their dreams too easily these days. We need to set our standards high and believe in ourselves.”
Stunt Dog Productions is a proud member and sponsor of the Florida Federation of Fairs. The Extreme Canines Stunt Dog Show is sponsored by Dick Van Patten’s Natural Balance Pet Foods.

Red River Exibition Stunt Dog Show
What was all the buzz about this year with the Red Tour of Stunt Dog Productions? Out of the gate we were performing our first show out of the country in Winnipeg, Canada at the Red River Exhibition! Also, new to the show was the addition of little Zooming Zip, (a 15 lb. Rat Terrier/Corgi mix) who was rescued last year after our performances at the LA County Fair. New and exciting highlights during the show were Daredevil Dash taking on the responsibility of being the “Evil Knievil” Stunt dog of the show and also his jump roping debut, which brought the house down! Zooming Zip stepped up to take on Nitro Neo in the battle for setting record triathlon racing speeds. Flying Flash was our show opener with big air back vaults and head over heels back flips, which the crowds went wild for!
The other buzz you might have heard us talk about were fighting off giant mosquitos around the clock and braving the rain and gusty wind conditions throughout the exhibition. Harsh weather conditions accompanied us almost everyday of the exhibition, but despite the weather the dogs and trainers had a blast and the crowds were fantastic! ~ Lead Performer Trish Perondi

Silver Dollar City Review (Stunt Dog Experience)
A letter was sent to Silver Dollar City by a family last week, in regards to their experience seeing our show at the park. In all the years I’ve been performing this is by far the most wonderful feedback I have ever heard. Thank you Kelly Olsen from Berryville, Arkansas for taking the time to share how our show touched your lives. It means a lot knowing that our message is being so well received. We love to entertain; but we also strive to educate, promote and make a difference in the communities in which we perform.

To Whom It May Concern,
I and my children, ages 5 and 8, recently saw the Stunt Dog Show at Silver Dollar City (SDC). I have to tell you how awesome it was and how much we appreciate you featuring this extraordinary entertainer! The show was super fun and contained meaningful and important messages about pet overpopulation, adoption, and the amazing potential talent of “unwanted” shelter animals too! It was also an experience those of us in the audience could “take home” if we have pets: we bought the DVD on training dogs, and the children are now spending time training our dogs, which is enriching everyone’s life this summer. I think this combination is magical for a SDC show: (1) fun, (2) meaningful, and (3) somthing that changes our perspective, adds something to our lives, or gives us something new to do when we go home. I was so elated after the show that I upgraded our day passes to season passes, and I have told everyone I know via email and Facebook to go see the show! I know at least two families have done so, based on my suggestion. Thank you for bringing this show to SDC! – Kelly Olsen (Berryville, Arkansas)
