That would be a big worry for me for a dog that is 7. I have a dog that loves to fly but i do not let him do it on hard surfaces. He obviously loves his dog and i am sure he is vet careful. But oh my gosh is the story a good one. I love that he said his dog chose him.

Neat. I've seen a couple dogs on Animal Planet that can do that, it's super cool. Wish my dogs were that smart, LMAO.

I've seen a lot of Aussies do things like that, but Rory's got more intricate "dance" moves than any other I've seen. Dude needs to take a bow for working with him like that, too. It takes two to tango ;)

Maybe it's the factory worker bored with life got Rory and wow life got worth living and look at em now aspect that turned me into a drivel. I hope that tape is to support his legs, I figure that is what it is for. Considering mary's arthritis is going to be the end of her it is something to be concerned about. VIctor broke his toe climbing a tree. THat kind of calmed down his leaping a bit. IT healed all right but when he leaps sometimes he rehurts it.

I saw Kate and GIn and am a very big fan. I get all teary eyed of the dancing lady and golden too. If there is a happier looking dog i haven't seen it. Teamwork like that just moves my heart.

I did notice he kept crediting the dog and only the dog...which i think was VERY humble of him.. That took alot of work on his end too.

I wouldn't worry too much about Rory's jumping at this point in his life. 7 is in the prime of life for most Aussies and they're built for leaping -- just look at the back end of one and how they use it to land as well as launch, plus he isn't doing any really gigantic jumps, and I really like that it's worked out so that there is a lot of fancy footwork in between jumps.

Unlike Crazy Victor that goes 6 feet in the air...zoooop. I am glad he doesn't do that much anymore. He would self destruct.

THat man is humble and that makes me like him all the more.

Dogs just need their own show. Dogs got talent. I would be glued to it. I am sure there would be enough to fill up air time.

The act was good, entertaining, and obviously worked on quite a bit. That part doesn't impress me much, it's nice, but meh...........

What I like is that Rory was REHOMED! Unwanted by his last owners and put in the newspaper to get rid of! LOL, wonder what his old owners will think of him after they see how some work changes a dog!!! :D

And Grammy...........he's not that far from YOU! New Castle!!

coop your a hard one to impress:p I thought the timing was fantastic. IT's one thing to see people have that kind of timing but with a dog was incredible!
