Sponsor of Stunt Dog Experience

Spotlight MBT | 7

“What kind of fun are you having?” “DOG-GONE FUN!” Comedy antics and incredible feats abound when the Stunt Dogs take the stage! These performers put their best furry feet forward to bring audiences a spectacular show that is high energy from start to finish, thanks in part to their human sidekicks. Stunt Dog Productions is a family-owned business led by husband-andwife team Chris and Suhey Perondi and their son Anthony. Director, trainer, and producer Chris has been entertaining audiences of all sizes since 1999. He’s produced over 7,000 shows in his career, over half of which were stage shows for theaters and major theme parks such as Silver Dollar City, Dollywood, Stone Mountain, Worlds of Fun, Valleyfair, Knott’s Berry Farm, Long Island Wildlife Park, and the Discovery Science Center. His canine co-stars have been featured on The Ellen Degeneres Show, Queen Latifah, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, Animal Planet’s Pet Star!, Fox Sports’ You Gotta See This!,

CBS’ The Early Show, and many more. The Stunt Dog mission is to promote pet adoption and responsible pet ownership and to educate people on the importance of spaying and neutering. All of the Stunt Dogs have been rescued from pounds and shelters across the country, and Chris’ crew takes time during every show to share their mission and encourage everyone to spend more time at home with their pets. “Adopt one until there are none, and please remember to spay/neuter your pets, everyone!” says Chris. Leading by example, the Perondis team up with only the best dog trainers and performers in the nation. They employ positive training methods using a clicker and toy motivation to coach each dog according to its individual ability, athleticism, and intelligence. These performer pups all have unique talents and signature moves to showcase. The Stunt Dogs enjoy performing because they’re doing what they love: bringing their tail-wagging enthusiasm into the spotlight!
