Spotlight on       Brewser

Please meet Brewser, the smallest performer in the Merry-Maker group.  He is also the biggest stealer of hearts, oooohhhs, and aaaaaahhhs that there is.  Brewser is a tan Chihuahua that belong to Dubble Bubble and Pepper.  He is about 2 and a half years old, but has been in parades since he was 4 months old.

His first parade debut was at the COAI Convention in Corpus Christi Texas in 2004, riding the the palm of Pepper's hand as they strolled thru the wide ocean boulevard during the Buccaneer Day Parade Event.  Many a person's eyes would light up when they saw him and we heard them say "Gee, look at that cute little dog".

Brewser just attended another parade on March 12, 2006 in the Dallas St. Patrick's Parade.  Once again, he was getting the ooohhs and aahhhs and making the children smile.  He was between the Twist Radio truck and the Girl Scout Horse Troop either in Pepper's plam or running along side of "Frank" Dubble Bubble's HotDog on a leash and trying to aviod Pepper's big feet.

It just goes to show that anyone can be a clown, all you have to do is want to make someone laugh or smile, or simply brighten someone's day. (or just go on an ofternoon walk with your "People")                 Pepper                     

 

In April, Carl "Topper the Clown" Jones will bring to us an exciting and clownified magic lecture
