Providence resident Gary Walton was channel surfing Wednesday night when he stumbled across an episode of Animal Planet's "Pet Star," a show featuring animals tricked into performing wild and zany feats with the elusive promise of being fed.
"I saw the dog on the TV," recounted Walton, "and that's when I got the idea: what if my dog saw the dog on TV?"
Walton had many hypotheses about what would happen when his dog Atticus, a Chow Hound whose name he denies comes from the father in "To Kill A Mockingbird," would see the dog on television.
