ALBION – Nicholas Olate performs with the Olate Dogs during Thursday’s Billy Martin’s Cole All-Star Circus at Albion High School. About 700 people attended the show.
The Olate Dogs, previous winners of America’s Got Talent, were the headliners in the show. The dogs amazed the crowd with high-energy, fast-paced pet tricks.

At intermission, people could get their picture taken with the dogs. Lux and Harrison Froman of Albion pose with the famous canines.
The circus performed two shows in Medina on Jan. 17, and also was in Holley on Wednesday. They will be in Kendall today at 7 p.m.

Elena impressed the crowd with a series of quick costume changes that seemed like magic. She switched into many different outfits. Alex, in back, also made a lightning-fast switch into a white suit.
