...you put on shows for your dogs?

They would do the same for you.

I mean, yeah. Absolutely. In addition to separation anxiety, they both just get bored while we’re stuck working.

Our pitbull likes Disney movies. Our heeler really likes to watch large animals and dog herding shows, but gets too excited when small animals are on screen. Both of them really seem to enjoy dog agility competitions.
