Benny, a 5-year-old rescue pup, has been learning to skate ever
since he was rescued as a pup from a Las Vegas shelter."You can’t keep him off the ice," Benny’s owner Cheryl Del Sangro said. "He just keeps getting better and better."
Del Sangro, 56, a former skating coach, takes her pup to the rink every two weeks or so.
With tiny skates on his front paws, equipped with two blades glued to each doggy boot, and mittens on his back paws for stability, Benny has mastered basic steps like turns, crossovers and even bunny hops.
"He’s the happiest dog and he loves learning tricks," Del Sangro said. "You can’t help but smile when you see it."
“We’ve looked into it and we can’t find any other dogs that can skate," she said.
