Atka is Amazing!
We hired Atka and her mom & dad for my daughter''s 7th birthday party. What a hit! The children barely moved as they were so entertained by the beautiful dog, all their tricks and Thy's wonderfully educational entertainment. Highly recommend it! I had quite the crowd as the parents wanted to see the show too and didn't want to leave! Thy is a consumate professional who dotted every "i" and crossed every "t", following up on details and sending a video and pictures from the event. Over & Above experience that I highly recommend!

Memorable Birthday Party
We booked Atka for our 8 year old boy's birthday. He wanted a dog themed birthday and this seemed like such an original idea. We were blown away by the professionalism and entire process from first contact until last contact after the party. All our guests were impressed with the idea of a dog show and the boys loved the dogs. The show was about 30 minutes which was perfect for their attention span and each kid got to do a trick with the dog. The best part was the 'gift' we received after the party. I don't want to ruin a surprise so I won't say what it is; I will say this - don't hesitate if the price seems too steep b/c you really get your money's worth! We would do this again in a heartbeat. Thanks again!!

About
Atka is a 9-year-old American Eskimo Dog who is not only proficient in many different tricks, but is also a Therapy Dog, with 5 different talent agents who get him work in the advertising field for commercials and print ads.
As the National Chairman for the Public Education Committee for our breed's parent club, the American Eskimo Dog Club of America (the club that is responsible for our dogs' breed's history and future and works directly with the AKC), we also hold educational seminars to teach children both dog safety and knowledge about the Eskie breed.
Atka is an entertainer extraordinaire, capturing the hearts of all who meet him. He takes his jobs as an entertainer, Therapy Dog, and educator very seriously, giving each area 200% of himself in each role he plays.
Atka makes sure that he does not neglect his elderly and infirm friends at the nursing home he visits every month, despite all his activities. He has been able to bring catatonic residents out of their state, motivate stroke victims to move, and induce smiles and happy memories to all he comes in contact with.
At the military bases, he donates his time to wounded and ill soldiers to offer them a few moments of comfort and joy, and extends it to their families, as well.
He wins over young and old alike, with his gentle, friendly demeanor, and his incredibly soft fur that has been described by little girls as being "as soft as an angel."
At shows, he wows audiences with his tricks, and shows them some of the things they can also do with their own dogs to strengthen their relationships. After all, dogs just want to please and be Man's Best Friend.
He is a seasoned performer for all venue sizes and environments, from smaller birthday parties, to thousands of screaming spectators in arenas, back down to studios with high-def cameras inches from him.
When you book Atka, the AMAZING Eskie, you will be guaranteed a fun, informative, and delightful show. We bring all our own equipment, and are able to accommodate both intimate and large venues easily. We look forward to hearing from you!
