Yes of course! The trainer is a really interesting guy - he does mostly private training and ringsport work, but holds canine circus classes (and I believe acting classes as well). Ellie just passed into the more advanced circus class - its a lot of posing and trick work all working towards working through commands at a distance from the handler. During the sessions the dogs all remain on their respective boxes and really just go through the paces. Francis (the trainer) really works them on props - for instance we had a ball balancing workshop last week where he had balls of varying sizes, apples, etc and the dogs had to learn to balance them all on their muzzles. He also challenges them while in a stay and brings out "scary" props - things that are abnormal looking or sounding and they have to maintain their stay. Ellie is crazy fast at picking up tricks - I think I just slow her down. The hot dogs help though.
It all really gets their heads working - he tries to have them do routines and boy, does he love a photo shoot.
I sadly don't have too many pictures - he keeps us busy while we're there. If anyone lives in the SF Bay Area I totally recommend his classes - way too much fun.

I think his site links to video. They're all hilarious. Here is a picture of Ellie and I from her Circus Level I graduation - again, he loves having us pose.
