Laugh at the Muttville Comix dogs and their act, and cheer on the dock diving dogs – yes, an indoor swimming pool for dogs in winter with competitions for highest jump, longest jump and also for speed (have you ever seen a dog in a swim suit?).
Parrot training. Parrot training? Yes! Even a parrot behavior 3-hour workshop (see website for details) with the Bird Whisperer
