Somebody Get That Dog An Agent!

     Like most young children,

     Like most young children, still free in spirit and unfettered by the self-consciousness and societal mores that rein us all in over the years as we nibble away, as we must, at the fruit of that Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil known as life,

​...my two young grand daughters love to perform.

     During my recent visit with them my grand daughters put on a show every night.
        "Time for the show!" They'd say every night after dinner, and, after directing me, their accompanist, to my place at the keyboard,

...they'd provide the evening's entertainment.

     However, it turns out that the serious talent in the family is my little male grand dog, Rainbow Dash Sparkle Ariel Pinky Poo,

​...but whom we call Pinky Poo for short.

    Now, I don't think it takes a grandmother to see that this pooch has got a ton of personality.

    I mean, this is a dog who instinctively knows how to turn it on for the camera.

     But it's not Pinky's natural photogenicity,

​...or his propensity for stealing every scene,

...or his endless patience at being, shall we say, over-loved,

...on a daily basis,

...that makes me think this dog has got showbiz potential.
     It's that this canine can perform, as we learned one day when he horned in on his sisters' song and dance,

...and totally stole the show.

     "Oh my goodness," I exclaimed to my daughter, "This dog is incredible! Look at how he hops around on his hind legs!"

     "Look how high he can jump!"

    I said, "You live right down the street from Hollywood! You could get Pinky into show business! He'd be a natural! He could be the next 'Benji!'"
          "Nah," my daughter replied.
