00:11the annual Dubai Pet Show.

00:14The crowds were treated to magnificent displays as police dogs showed off their skills, sniffing

00:19for drugs and catching criminals on the run.

00:27They jumped effortlessly over hurdles and flew through circles of fire.

00:33Other dogs took this as a challenge and were eager to show off a few tricks of their own.

00:57These are our two dogs, they're Alaskan Malamutes, not Huskies.

01:27They're so loving that they're just part of the family.

01:39Some animals took the opportunity to flaunt their fashion sense, sporting sunglasses,

01:44designer scarves and stylish outfits.
