OUR DAY OUT - PRESS NIGHT
The press night for "Our day out" was a great success. The musical achieved great reviews, with mention of the animals :
" I had read the play a number of years back and remember reading the directors notes about using stuffed toys as the zoo animals, so when the kids turned around and actually had REAL animals in their hands, both I, and the rest of the audience gasped in surprise! Thankfully they didn’t let go of the snakes though!! "

Safe Style UK
Ziggy the border terrier performed very well on the new safestyle Uk commercial. He is seen to be barking at the main actor, then chasing him. The shot involved chasing, jumping through windows and then jumping. The dog performed very well, thanks to his two handlers Dave and Helen. Helen is a very experienced dog agility trainer, who works with the Animal Company, Dave is experienced at showing dogs in Crufts.

Greyhound Coaches Launch UK
Supplied Two grey hounds for the launch of Grey Hound Coaches UK. The CEO had his pictures taken with the dogs, in front of one of the new flashy coaches. Pictures looked great, and the Greyhound PR team were delighted. It really brought the product launch to life, and added a lot of interest for the media and photographers. Great fun.
