Our favorite funsters, Improv Everywhere, decided to spook the citizens of Brooklyn by enlisting at least 2,000 co-conspirators to walk invisible dogs on plastic leashes, all on the same Sunday afternoon. The leashes were on loan from the current owner of 51 Bergen Street, the factory space where the Invisible Dog toy was invented in the 1970s. The toy consists of a leash and dog harness that stands up on its own. I remember having one of these invisible pets when I was growing up in a New York apartment building that banned dogs, and it gave me great pleasure to take it out on the sidewalk. But imagine if there were hundreds, even thousands of Brooklynites doing the same thing? Would such a stunt penetrate the famous New Yorker nonplussedness?

In all my spent in Brooklyn Dog Training I have never seen such well behaved dogs and puppies.
