Carla Zoppé – Canines

The eldest sibling of the Zoppé children, Carla has spent her life in the circus. Early in her circus career Carla preformed as a bareback rider. In the 80s she began her first dog act. As natural active and working animals, dogs love to learn tricks and run out their energy in the ring. When they aren’t preforming, you’ll find them snuggling at home with Carla and Rudy. Rudy Heinan, Carla’s husband and partner in the canine act has an extraordinarily diverse circus history, if you get the chance ask him a story from his past, it is sure to delight.
