High-flying flips, fast-paced tricks and plenty of tail-wagging charm — Mutts Gone Nuts brings its comedic canine stunt show to the GPAC stage on March 15, 2026, for an afternoon of family-friendly fun.

Get ready for a howling good time as Mutts Gone Nuts, a comedic dog stunt show, comes to the Givens Performing Arts Center (GPAC) at UNC Pembroke on March 15 at 3 p.m.

Tickets are just $15 for adults and $5 for children.

Blending canine cabaret with laugh-out-loud comedy, Mutts Gone Nuts features rescue dogs performing astonishing tricks and athletic feats. From flipping and flying through the air to catching, jumping rope and even performing magic, these talented pups keep audiences of all ages cheering. The show stars Guinness World Records dog trainer Samantha Valle, whose work has been featured nationwide.

Beyond the entertainment, the show carries a heartwarming message. Many of the dogs were adopted from shelters — and in some cases, the very behaviors that led to their surrender became their standout talents. Through positive reinforcement and trust-based training, the dogs and their trainers build remarkable partnerships that shine on stage.

Audience members are encouraged to arrive early to meet some other great doggies and learn about pet adoptions in Robeson County. Representatives from the Robeson County Humane Society, Franny’s Friends and the Robeson County Sheriff’s Office Animal Control Division will be on site.
