Romeo gets a callback!

Romeo at the callback, fixated on that most wonderful toy - his frisbee

Last night was consumed by the season finale of Grey's Anatomy. At midnight I realized I had phone messages, so I checked them. The messages were for Romeo. The open casting call Romeo walked into on Friday for Pedigree wanted our little mini aussie in for a callback!

Things happened pretty fast. I called back this morning and they were only doing callbacks today. So Romeo, Dena, and I went since we were all together when we got into this crazy mess! I was told to bring something that Romeo would get excited about, so out came the frisbee and some meatballs and the Natural Balance training sausage, just in case he needed a little "motivation" to eat Pedigree food or something. More Polaroids abound. Hollywood must keep Polaroid in business. Romeo's getting good at posing for Polaroids.

So we go in, and the first thing the crew commented on was Romeo's eyes. The crew apparently had been talking Romeo's eyes from his casting call audition thing. I was told to play with him for a bit while they filmed him. He was a good little performer, very motivated by his treats and his frisbee. We didn't need to break out the sausages since he was so excited and happy looking in front of complete strangers filming him. Dena thought it was funny that Romeo would look into the camera whenever he was near it.

We'll see what happens next. Joel, who is our entertainment industry expert, says there may be one or two more callbacks. But no matter what, Romeo made the first cut. Maybe he can be a real Hollywood pooch after all!
