*Dog Show: Across a bright sunny field, we see one small dog barking as other dogs jump through flaming rings, over hurdles, and run around the field.

The camera then cuts to an aerial shot of the field, showing all of the dogs weaving through poles in a circle, as the commanding dog runs around the inside, barking at them.
