We recently took Best to his first parade. It was in the little town he is currently living in and was just a few blocks long - perfect for a first try. The night was mild so there was huge turnout (I'll be honest, I didn't know there were that many people in Afton). He was frustrated at first as we were behind my Mother's minis and they walk too slow for Best but as soon as we were in front of them, he was golden.
Police lights were flashing, music was playing (plus we went past the band in the warm up area) and he just raised his head and flick his ears. All total I think we were in the line up for maybe a mile. After the 4th time we stopped when the wagon in front stopped he figured out the pattern. He then stopped and stood like a seasoned carriage ride horse every time they stopped.
