The Sundown Salute 2008 Events

Extreme Canines Return!

From the Perondi's Extreme Canines Stunt Dog Show web site:

standing dogThe Perondi's Extreme Canines Show is a hair-raising, spine-tingling, thrilling stunt dog show. Our legacy began back in 1996 with the rescue of our first celebrity dog star, "Pepper". Since then we've produced thousands of shows across the nation and now offer one of the largest novelty, trick, and stunt dog shows in the world. Last year alone we produced over 500 shows in the United States and Canada. Our family show is made of numerous professional trainers and canine stars.

During our shows we offer a variety of entertainment, NEVER REPEATING and always INNOVATING! The sport of dog agility began back in 1977 and is now one of the most exciting dog sports in the world. Our production offers a unique twist to the sport.

Our super fast agility dogs will soar, spin, jump, and fly through the obsticles and even compete nose-to-nose through the most difficult obstacle of them all: the weave poles!

Are you looking for talented Frisbee dogs? Then look no further, as we offer the best of the best! All our Frisbee dogs perform at a "world class" level, performing freestyle Frisbee disc routines choreographed to music. Our unique style of Aerobie Superdisc catching dogs even perform side by side doing tricks and catches in sync.
