Circus Dogs

NAMES: Unknown
LOCATION: On tour

If you would like the opportunity to decide for yourself whether it is ethical to train animals for human entertainment, but do not have a dog circus near to you, you can watch a 5-minute video of circus dogs here.

Comments include:

“Andrey Markov's trio of trained dogs brought smiles to the children's faces as they cantered around the ring dressed like horses.”

“Makes you wonder what method was used to make these poor dogs run around in mindless circles. Was 'fear' or 'reward' their motivation to perform? I'm betting 'fear'.”

“My (autistic) son loved it! those dogs are very well trained.”

“I am soo against circus' because they abuse the animals so they can put on those pathetic costumes and do their acts. That is so degrading.”

“The little dog that walked on her hind legs was adorable!!”
