The Empower Pack

01/07/2021

We've created this fun montage of our rehearsals including tricks from our Harry Potter/Fantastic Beasts-themed routine, skills, and experiences leading up to our moment on stage!

Our airing of our performance on AGT Auditions Season 16, although exciting, did not capture all of the tricks (or dogs) and skills we had prepared in our original routine. Much was missing, including our message - and we wanted to get a chance to share with our family, friends, and fans.

From the beginning, our goal was to empower and inspire others on this larger platform. Our passion is our dogs. They have been lifechanging and could even be considered life-saving. Come with us and be inspired to believe in yourself and pursue your own dream no matter what hurdles come your way. Those moments are simply a stepping stone on to something greater.

We hope you enjoy this video, follow us, and share with your friends. Thank you for your continued love and support.

REACTION VIDEO - THE EMPOWER PACK
First of all, we are absolutely blown away by the endless support from our family and friends. WOW! Thank you all from the bottom of our hearts!

We are sad to see that the actual performance aired had many of our more challenging tricks cut out - including one dog that did not even get to show.

It was an incredible journey of hard work, team work, and trusting in the bond and relationship we cherish with our dogs. We walk away proud, grateful, and so excited for what is to come next in our adventures.

Our goal from the start was to inspire others, give people strength to stand before challenging obstacles in life and BELIEVE in yourself. No matter what anyone says or whatever happens. Also, that you can achieve the greatest things with your dog - no matter what age, size, breed, or background.

"When something undesired happens you have three choices. You can either let it define you, let is destroy you, or you can let it strengthen you."

Special thanks to Zoomiepetz for the awesome costuming work and Paws N Claws Couture for the fun collars we used on travel and during the audition process.

Teamwork and laughter. 😊 🐶

Don’t forget that everyone brings a piece to the puzzle as a team. We love working together and embracing all of our dogs strengths despite their differences. They all offer cool skills to bring to the table.

Go out there and play!
