Elmo Blatch Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 Did any of you have a pet on tour? If so, what was it and how did you care for it? Elmo Blatch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tristan Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 In 2003 during everydays, a stray dog started hanging out with the corps. He looked really pathetic and loved hanging around the corps. We eventually took him in and began feeding him, and when we couldn't find any information on who owned him (no id tags or anything), we took him on tour with us for the rest of the season. A bunch of volunteers chipped in to get him his shots and everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sopchick_01 Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 (edited) I remember once in 2003 during a rehearsal we saw the biggest dog ever to wander around the school. We called it "beardog", lol. Unfortunately, we didnt take him in since he just seemed to wander and see what we were doing and then he headed off somewhere else. I'll never forget that dog. He was HUGE Edited April 25, 2007 by sopchick_01 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

musicislife26 Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 Cap Reg 06 had a turtle that some members found on a free day at State Park in Georgia...We called him Donatello and he lived in a bus box that was taken out to the field each day (if i remember correctly). We fed him/her food from the food truck like lettuce and such. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GGarrett Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 One of the most famous pets that traveled with a corps was also part of one of the saddest stories in Blue Devils history. They had an instructor who was confined to wheelchair, and he had a loyal and well trained and behaved dog that was always with him. I remember the guys name was Tom, but I don't remember what he instructed or what the reason was he was in a wheelchair. But he and his dog were present at every corps show, and I saw them personally a few times back in the 70's. The sad part is that both Tom and his dog were killed in a car accident while they were traveling home from an event one year. It was featured (I believe) in DCW, and there is a picture of Tom and his dog in one of the DCI yearbooks, I believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
