BUDWEISER CLYDESDALES, ARMADA FAIR, DOG FALLS OFF THE WAGON

budweiser clydesdales at armada fair, Dog falls off the wagon, but and super impressed the way the crew jumps to action, love these animals, got goose bumps when they passed up, the dog is fine, just scared

[@angiehoutakker7980]

Poor dog got pushed off by 2nd guy who starts to panic because the horses were turning wrong way too fast. You can see the other guys in red shirts start to help out and stop the lead horses. I watched a future one of these demos on another video, and they now have Barley the dog, go back on top of the wagon behind them when they do this turn to both sides. Then when they are done they have him come sit back down. With all the reins and moving them around, they didn't have much room up there anyway.

[@darilynadams7281]

They should have a seethru container attach to the top for the dog to be in & safe. Just the sides & No top; in case the wagon falls over & the dog can escape. From an Aussie [Australian]. The coward chap terrible to push the poor dog off the wagon!

Barley is a true coach dog: He knew to clear the area so he would be out of the way of hoofs and wagon wheels. He is a smart dog.

Dalmatians probably the only dogs who were bred next to horses. Next to fire couches to clear the area from unwanted people while firefigters extinguish the fire back in time. However I saw this turning demonstration in other videos where the dog was sent onto the crates. I dont know why they didnt send this dog behind this time

@@Angelaius although I am a fan of Dalmatians; my own dog would kill me if I failed to mention that each country whose main means of transportation was a coach or wagon had its own type of coach dog, Used to help clear the road and guard the coach, But I do agree with you, that because of their stylish coat and agility, the Dalmatian became a favorite breed for such work,

@@marijaneplacek3090 unfortunately deafness was bred into the breed its their big issue. Well not all of them deaf but its genetical.

I am more into lifestock dogs.

If you watch carefully, the dog was accidentally pushed off. The horses stopped listening and decided to turn towards the back of the wagon, which would have very quickly turned into a major disaster with horses, the dog, and the people in the arena getting hurt. The horses turning pulled the driver over into the assistant's spot, and the assistant into the dog's spot. Luckily he landed mostly okay and didn't get stepped on. I've never had a dalmatian but I've always thought they were so pretty!

Many years ago, I went to Sea World in Orlando, Florida by myself. I live near Tampa, love to photograph animals, so sometimes I would go to those places alone so I could take photos and not have someone saying, "Come on, you got enough photos!!" I had the day off from work so it wasn't crowded that day. I went into the barn area so I could get photos of the newborn baby Clydesdale horse in the stall with her momma. I was completely alone in the barn except for horses. I noticed my film was needing to be changed, so I squatted down and used my black bag. Film was very sensitive and you needed to put it in, in as dark of a place as possible. My boyfriend had given me a black bag that had places for your hands and I could change out film in less than 25 seconds. I could hear a woman yelling, STOP, NO!! COME HERE. I assumed it was someone yelling at a child. I suddenly felt this slobbery, big, kiss. I looked and there was a Dalmatian dog, tail wagging. She was wet and had no collar on. I knew she was one of the Budweiser dogs. I said hello to her and she was sniffing my clothing. I had 2 dogs & 4 cats at home so she had a lot to smell. I looked around and couldn't find anyone near by. I was looking for either an employee or someone to get an employee. In the meantime, I didn't want her to run off. Now the yelling flashed back and I thought, oh they must have been trying to get her to stop running. I had already put my camera back in my bag but I unhooked the strap of the bag and made a loop to use as a leash. She was perfectly content as she had someone to scratch her behind the ears (made her back foot thump!!), plus to her I smelled like other dogs & cats. A young couple came in the barn. I asked them to go to the Budweiser building and see if they were looking for her. They did. Suddenly, in ran 3 people! They said thank you so much! She had apparently decided to roll in horse poop and they had to give her a bath. She took the opportunity to run when they were switching out the bathing loop. The poor girl said she ran to Shamu Stadium and down the steps to the area where people could watch the Orcas in a back pool. As the girl went to grab her she took off again. She was one of the ones that stops & waits till you get a foot away and then runs off. The girl and 2 other employees were chasing her when the beer employees called them on their two-way radios and said someone found the dog and has a temporary leash on her. She is waiting with the dog in the Clydesdale Barn. I said I used to have a dog that did the same thing. Took off running and then stopped & waited. So I was given 2 free tickets to Sea World that I could use at any time as a thank you for keeping her there!! She was so cute with her spotted coat. They also gave me a front row place where they came out with the team, dog, & wagon all go around the area. Unfortunately I am only 5' tall so if I do not get up front for anything, I only see the person in front of me. I got to be up front, next to the announcer and he told the audience that I had rescued the dog earlier that day after she had to get a bath after rolling in 💩!! She wasn't a fan of baths and when she saw the opportunity to run, she did! Of course my boyfriend asked why I didn't get a case of beer, instead of 2 free passes? I still remember standing in front of one of those horses! I looked like a 3 year old standing in front of that horse!

Now he asks me, "Did you put the seat back?" If I forgot, I will get in and move it back for him. Now at least the movie theaters have the extremely steep floors so I can see if there is a crowd.

They weren't looking at the dog, they were twisting their necks to relieve the pressure from the very tight bearing reins. Bearing reins were described in the novel Black Beauty by Anna Sewell about the many forms of horses abuse. Horse and people are being injured and killed and news of this is being hushed. Bearing reins are causing injuries and deaths in shows and parades but the word never gets out. The name bearing rein was changed to overcheck rein to throw people off but the result is the same. Much horse agony and pain. Animals can't cry so no one notices unless you look carefully.

I bought a former bearing rein horse and it took years for her to learn that I was not going to attach a bearing rein. She knew exactly in the harnessing process that the bearing rein would be attached and reacted the same way each time at the very moment the rein would have been attached. She went ballistic would put it mildly. She reared up and spun around in the harness and snapped the 3/8 inch thick wagon tongue pin. And she wasn't a big powerful draft horse, just a 14-2 light weight, not even a halflinger, she did this even when line driving, anytime someone came near her withers like to hook up the overcheck.

In the split second to make a decision the dog was in the way. You always have to make a choice to make less of a disaster. Didn't look like any animals were seriously hurt. Really good outcome.

Notice that each horse has hie groom to steady them.

[@marilynmessner561]

Thank God none of them were hurt.!

HOPE BARLEY IS OK??? OH NO!!!

[@nikiryan8648]

I never thought dalmatians were smart, but THIS ONE IS! when you have several thousand pounds of horse coming back at you, and you KNOW they aren't supposed to be....get the HELL out of dodge! good dog.

[@lhenneman6447]

The horses have been mildly complaining since they entered the arena. Something was bound to happen.

I do believe the puppy was pushed off the wagon.

Something spooked the doggie. Time for a new Dalmatian. I feel sorry for the people in the front, lower rows of this section, because two morons parked an SUV and a golf cart, right in front of their view of the field. WTF?

That jerk next to the driver almost pushed him off with his body when they were moving the horses sideways! I was thinking that they shouldn't have the dog on the bench with them if they were going to practically squish him off the edge! I felt better when the same guy moved the dog to sitting between them for a few seconds, and felt better, still, when he took the dog in his arms, sitting him on his lap. THAT is where the poor dog fell from - that man's ARMS! Looked like he suddenly needed to do something with the reins again, put the dog on the very end of the bench (where there isn't enough room for the dog, anyway), there was NO ROOM for him and he fell DIRECTLY from that man's arms, to the ground! Then, people clapped because the dog was able to run from the oncoming horses??? Animals (and, people) can appear perfectly well after an accident due to the high rush of adrenaline which is the result of the "fight or flight" instinct when danger is sensed - he flew/ran! He could have been injured even though they picked him up and put him down, letting him run off! He should have been examined on the GROUND because moving him might have made an unknown injury worse. Then carry him off - even if he wants to walk. This is basic First Aid any time there is a fall from a high distance! I'm shocked and disappointed! I do hope the dog was, indeed, uninjured. They need to extend the length of the bench for the dog in cases of emergency, like happened there. It was completely avoidable had the bench been longer. They were relieved that he could run because it made it look like their irresponsible handling of the dog, both, before and after the fall, had no negative effect!

Dog needs a seat belt.

Dog didn't fall off. She was pushed off.
