<p>From shelters to showbiz, these amazing mutts unleash havoc and hilarity in a breathtaking, action-packed, comedy dog spectacular, featuring some of the world’s most talented four-legged performers. Deemed “A Must See” by the Washington Post, the dogs are sure to steal your heart, and then your socks. When the dogs take a break, comedian-contortionist Jonathan Burns demonstrates a goofy, nerdy persona that's elevated by his ability to fold his body in ways that would send most of us to the chiropractor — or emergency room.</p>
