The men from Australia's "Thunder from Down Under" show traveled to Houston, Texas, on Monday for a performance at the House of Blues and to volunteer at the Houston Humane Society.

The men spent their time bathing, walking and playing with the dogs and cats in the shelter. They also donated a portion of the proceeds from the show to the shelter.

“It’s getting a little emotional at the time when you see what these poor animals have gone through,” said Beau, one of the dancers.

The men who went to Houston are part of the group's traveling show. Members of the group have performed in Las Vegas.

"Thunder from Down Under" is one of the most popular shows for women in Las Vegas. The show has been presented for 16 years at the Excalibur hotel-casino in Las Vegas. The group has also entertained nearly 4 million fans around the world.
