Overview

*** WE ARE NO LONGER PERFORMING AT BIRTHDAY PARTIES OR SIMILAR PRIVATE EVENTS ***

We are a unique celebrity trick and therapy dog team with 3 dogs who perform fun, interactive tricks that pull in help from audience members. As therapy dogs, our pups also have the sweet temperaments needed to make our shows suitable for people of all ages.

The celebrity sides of us are from modeling for Ralph Lauren, Tavo, PetSmart, Martha Stewart Living, Urban Outfitters, Garnet Hill, DHL, Macy’s, and from being on TV numerous times, and even on the big screen in the movies.

We look forward to hearing from you to see if we are a match for each other!

Atka truly is Amazing!

Thy and Atka put on such a wonderful birthday show for my boys, Ages 5 and 2. The tricks were fun and very interactive with the kids. She brought about 10 of the guests up to participate in the show -- holding hoops for Atka and the other dogs to jump through; kids lying in a row for the dogs to jump over. We had a blast, and the dogs were so beautiful, well trained, and friendly.

A wonderful show!

We had the pleasure of hosting Thy and her amazing dogs at our campground this summer. Atka, Kutie Kayu and Normal Dog Nuka are gorgeous and interacted warmly with the audience while entertaining us with their repertoire of fun tricks and talents. Thy provided a relaxed and educational experience for our guests. She allowed for a large amount of audience participation which is always so great for our campers! She shared her knowledge of her dogs as well as the training the is involved in training them to become the amazing performers they are. This show was a truly unique and great experience for our team and our guests! We look forward to their return!

Atka and Friends: Truly Amazing

A wonderful show by Thy and the dogs at our library! The audience of all ages was fully engaged. All were thrilled when the dogs wandered through the audience saying "hello". The fun did not stop with the show. Each participant could line up for a photo with the dogs. Thy even sent photos after the event to those who did not have a phone or camera with them.

AMAZING IS RIGHT!!!

Atka and his family are AWESOME! Our audience (young children and parents) was absolutely enthralled. The event was entertaining, educational and also had motivational aspects. Thy, the handler, is enthusiastic, welcoming and in control of the situation. It was a wonderful evening!

What a great family program!

Thy and her beautiful Eskies visited our library for our monthly Family Funday program. Thy was enthusiastic and engaging as well as being a total pleasure to work with! The number of attendees was through the roof, and we received such positive feedback after the event. We look forward to future visits from Atka!

What to expect

We do have requirements to ensure our shows are as successful as they can be, and that our pups are safe, comfortable, and happy. They are our pets first and foremost, and this is our #1 priority. Before reaching out to us for availability, please see if you’re able to provide the below:

1) Shows need to be in spaces that can be fully enclosed.
2) Fully enclosed spaces need to have a/c that works well (our very heavily coated dogs just shut down and don't perform when they get hot)
3) Food cannot be in the room
4) Performing area needs to be 12 x 22 ft, with space beyond that for the attendees to sit (on the floor, or chairs, if needed)
5) Venues need to be in NJ. Out-of-state gigs are reviewed on a case-by-case basis.

Our shows are about 45 minutes long, with time spent afterwards for every attendee to take their photo with the pups (we stay until everyone has had their chance for this, however long that takes).

We take about 1 hour to set up, and about 30 minutes to tear down. We bring all the equipment we need, including a microphone, speaker, and even a carpet runner (if the room is not carpeted).

We look forward to hearing from you to see if we are a match for each other!

1) Shows need to be in spaces that can be fully enclosed (dogs will be roaming freely in the room).
2) Fully enclosed spaces need to have a/c that works well, with the room cooled down before our arrival. Our very heavily coated dogs just shut down and don't perform when they get hot.
3) FOOD CANNOT BE IN THE ROOM.
4) Performing area needs to be 12 x 22 ft, with space beyond that for the patrons to sit (most venues have the kids sitting on the floor for us, with some folding chairs set up in the back or perimeter of the room for the adults or kids who may not want full interaction with the pups, since the pups roam free in the space and may interact with the audience).
5) We'll need access to the space about an hour before our show (so, starting from 1pm) to set up. Our show lasts about 45 minutes. We then need about 30 minutes to break down afterwards.

Before we start breaking down, we do allow a controlled photo opp with all 3 dogs for every single guest (meaning, 1 family/individual at a time), to allow everyone to have their chance to pet the dogs, since not everyone will get called up to help with a trick.

We look forward to hearing from you to see if we are a match for each other!
