Coco the mini poodle is not only a flyball dog, but quite a performer. She is still learning the sport, but always looking for applause whenever she can get it. A brief pause at the box, a look to the right as she goes over a jump, or a prance at the finish line are all good places for little Coco to get extra recognition.
