Woof, everypups. I really have to say that last night's show was the worst I've seen, with the two lady judges screaming at each other over JD being the best part of the show. The Dog Bone Challenge was really lame. The teams were paired together and while one human was hidden in a wooden box the other human had to get one dog to ring a bell and then lead the remaining dog up the steps to the top of the wooden box. There the dog would dig until a lever was released, thus opening the door to the box. Travis and Presley teamed with Bill and Star, winning the challenge. The last challenge was a maze in which the dog had to work their way to the end with only their owner's voice to guide them. With one catch, there were three puppies that were also in the maze and they had to follow the dog out of the maze. Now I know everyone loves puppies but I think it was very irresponsible to introduce strange pups into the show. Many older dogs just don't appreciate that puppy energy and tend to get a little cranky which was obvious with Star as she did whatever she could to stay away from the puppies. Teresa and Leroy were picked Best in Show and Beth Joy and Bella Starlet were shown the Doggie Door.SCUBA'S FIRST PICK - RON AND TILLMAN ARE GONESCUBA'S SECOND PICK - BILL AND STAR
I have to agree with you about the puppies,Scuba. That was just a bad idea. Sure Presley loved the pups but he's still a young dog. Some older dogs just don't like pups, not to mention the puppies were bigger than Andrew and Bella Starlet, no wonder they were freaked out. And after listening to those judges jump all over Bill for his aggressive treatment of Star, I'm beginning to think that Toby is right, the show is rigged and the judges just don't know what the hell is going on. I didn't see any thing wrong with the way Bill treated Star except making her run the maze. If he didn't make her run the maze then the judges would have been all over him for not challenging his dog. The judges stink like puppy poop and are doggies behinds.KEIKO'S PICK - BILL AND STAR
Amen to that!!! Those judges are just getting worse with every show, though their little 'cat fight' was very entertaining. And about the puppies, it was just a bad idea. I considered myself to be somewhat of a young dog and I wouldn't want three rambunctious pups crawling all over me. It was a poor choice and whoever made it is a doggies behind. But I do have to say that Teresa and Leroy just ripped through that maze and beat out JD and Galaxy. Great job!!! NORMAN'S PICK - TRAVIS AND PRESLEY
Well, I hate to sound like a broken record but I agree with everyone's take on PuppyGate. It was just a stupid idea to include the pups in the maze challenge. A couple of the older dogs actually snapped at the pups and though no pup was hurt, things could have gotten out of control. I do admit that the fight between the judges was the best part of the show, though I'm not really sure what the hell they were fighting about.DUKE'S FIRST PICK - RON AND TILLMAN ARE GONEDUKE'S SECOND PICK - TRAVIS AND PRESLEY
I've been saying it, the show is rigged and the judges suck!!! Really, jumping on Bill like that, poor guy. He was damned if he did and damned if he didn't and he knew it. On one hand the judges want you to challenge your dog but just don't do it if Miss Victoria is having a bad hair day. And as far as that little spat between the two lady judges, that was fixed to drive the ratings up.
