A Canine Wonder (1938)

Soundtrack is missing for this item. Titles read: “A CANINE WONDER“. Location of events unknown - could be Sunderland, Tyne and Wear. Various shots of an Alsatian dog called ’Wolf’ doing tricks in a field with his master, Mr Moore, while a small group of schoolchildren watch. Wolf jumps through hoops held at shoulder height, one time with a dumbbell in his mouth and another time he jumps through a paper-covered hoop. Wolf leaps over the outstretched arms of some children - he is amazing! He then picks out a domino piece from a pile on the ground and gives it to Mr Moore - presumably he has been asked to pick a certain piece. Wolf poses with the children. C/U of Wolf.
