Miss B. Kelly and Mr. M. Snapper bring their team of jumping Alsatians to the camera.
Introduced by Cecil Lewis.
This team consists of four dogs, who possess what must be truly called canine genius. Viewers will see them jump a fence and do the usual hoop stunts. Two of them, Coona and Mikeve, are particularly clever: the former can recognise the letters of the alphabet and the latter would be the envy of an Olympic games athlete - he can jump nine feet six inches high and a length of thirty feet.

Only twenty-four years of age, Lisa Minghetti has already had a brilliant career.
