ROCKY MOUNT (WSLS 10) -- The Olate Dogs stole the show on NBC's America's Got Talent in 2012 and now they're ready to wow Southwest Virginia.

The variety show starring dogs will be in Rocky Mount Friday as part of their rescue tour to promote animal adoptions. Half of the dogs in the show are rescues.

11 dogs are part of each high-energy, theatrical show but performer Nicholas Olate says there's much more they're bringing to the rescue tour.

"We have comedy, we have a fashion show believe it or not, dogs dressed up in nice dresses and we have batman," he said. "We have all sorts of funny dresses and stuff. We have two short films we're showing as well."

The Olate performance is Friday at 7 pm at the Harvester Performance Center in Rocky Mount. Tickets are available at the box office or online.
