Gail Mirabella is an American woman who likes dogs very much. Because of the love for dogs, she becomes a dog trainer in a circus. When she was a child, Gail often trained her dogs to do tricks (表演技班) for fun. At the age of ten, she did her first dog show. By now, she has done her job for about 14 years.
For Gail, how long it takes her to train a dog well depends on (取决于) the dog itself. Gail has thirteen dogs in the circus. To train them better, she tried to make friends with each one. And Gail spent lots of time on it. Now it seems that all her dogs consider Gail as their best friend. They get on well with Gail very much.
“Dogs can start to perform the big tricks after they are two years old. As practice, I made my dogs perform in some small shows when they were as young as eight months old. At that time, they started to get used to performing before the people around.”Gail said.
“When the dogs and I travel to different places to perform, I can make friends with lots of people and see beautiful views. However, nothing is more wonderful than the life in the circus, because I can stay with my dogs all the time,”Gail also said proudly.
