The Olate Dogs are the winning participants from Season 7 of America's Got Talent. Led by father Richard Olate and his son Nicholas Olate, the Olate Dogs are a high-energy, fast-paced act filled with doggie friendly and amazing pet tricks.
The all-new LIVE theatrical show includes the infamous jumping rope, twirling spinning and fun-loving Olate Dogs made famous on America's Got Talent... but there's much more. With a doggy fashion show, a classic comedic routine by Richard Olate, music by Nicholas Olate and amazing cycling and juggling by his wife, the Olate Dogs show is fun for kids of all ages. While on tour, they spend much of their time supporting dog rescues and animal shelters, bringing awareness to the need for families to rescue and adopt stray dogs and pets.
The Olate family story is a unique "only in America," rags to riches journey. In 2012, the Olate Dogs shot to stardom with their victorious performances and grand-prize win on America's Got Talent. These sweet, funny, talented dogs and their entertaining owners/handlers have been capturing hearts across the world ever since matriarch Richard Olate developed his act on the streets of his native Chile. Richard Olate grew up very poor in South America and began rescuing stray dogs from the street and training them to be part of his amateur show. Today, Richard and his wife, Rebecca and son, Nicholas, continue to rescue dogs from shelters and homes and train them to become part of their professional troupe. The Olate Dogs travel across the continent, amazing audiences with their talents and supporting dog rescues and shelters all across America.
Ever since father and son took their 10 flipping, twirling dogs from the center ring of a circus to the stage where they won the TV competition America's Got Talent, people have been packing their performances and watching their films. The Olate Dogs use slides and jump ropes good as any playground expert. They fall into a conga line in perfect sync and perform flawless backflips. Richard Olate, son Nicholas and their poodle-mix rescue dogs continue to dazzle audiences with their fast-paced, trick-filled shows.
The VIP ticket includes premium seating, after-show meet-and-greet and photo opportunity with the dogs. VIP packages can only be picked up at will call on the day of show.
