SuperDogs a Hit With Fairgoers
The SuperDogs bark excitedly before taking turns racing against one another and jumping over obstacles in the Keystone Arena during the Royal Manitoba Winter Fair.
Their young fans, who dangled their legs over the arena wall and cheered from their seats, can't get enough of these energetic canines.
"They're cool and they're fast," said eight-year-old Bryce Wytinck, from Teulon. "I like the way they do the big relay."
The show moved to the main arena this year due to popular demand.
The crowd teams up with the dogs, one side of the arena cheering one team of the Brandon Sun-sponsored event, and the other side the second team.
"When the dogs were racing five against five was my favourite," said Bryce's 11-year-old brother Corey.
The sound of cheers is deafening - shocking considering the little bodies they come from. Some stood in the seats next to their parents.
Lara Teetaert is seven years old and already the Goodlands girl is a Winter Fair regular. And each year, she takes in the SuperDogs. "I like the way they run," she said.
This year, some of the dogs are celebrities. The movie Daniel and the Superdogs was in theatres earlier this month, but the flick's canine star, Streak, has hardly let it go to his head. The Jack Russell terrier lapped up after-show attention yesterday afternoon in the Keystone Centre's Salon A.
Streak played Gypsy in the movie but yesterday, it was all about being cute and earning treats.
"It's just a lot of fun," said Kristin Harrigan, SuperDogs trainer. Streak's owner couldn't attend the fair but Harrigan considers it an honour to be in charge of the easy-to-please dog. Fans kept him busy before Streak took a much-deserved outside break, with a constant barrage of hugs and petting.
Paw autographs will be available throughout the week and the troupe will perform three times daily throughout the fair. The final day of the 98th annual event is Saturday.
