Street Dogs Rescued and Trained as Balldogs for Brasil Open Tennis Tournament

It looks like these former street dogs have found their dream job after taking on the role of balldogs for a tennis tournament in Sao Paulo.

The canines were rescued from slums and abandoned lots around the city before being trained to collect balls during an exhibition match at the Brasil Open.

While proving more than capable of fetching the balls quickly between points, the pups weren't quite as good at returning them to the players, understandably preferring to play themselves. They are dogs, after all.
