Our Pomeranian plays Bruiser Woods in Legally Blonde. She waits for her cue, then walks onstage all by herself

When my daughter was in HS Drama, her team would specifically write in our Pom into every possible show. It’s a bit surreal to watch HS kids doing Shakespeare and suddenly our family dog is on stage.

What types of roles did she have?

The dog or my daughter? My daughter usually just painted, built sets, and did stage direction. But her senior year, she was the Harpy in The Tempest. The dog has played babies, Toto from Wizard of Oz, and various background dogs. One time, he even had an action scene of being tossed out a window from a building on fire.

I can’t tell you how much it warmed my heart that you answered their inquiry both ways. I’m thrilled to hear about both your daughter and dogs successes in theatre.
