Not thrilled with American dog...

Stephanie on Behavior - Wed, July 30 2008

Did you watch the show tonight? I couldn't believe that they wanted a dog to portray angry in the photo shoot. That poor dog looked so confused and upset during the whole process - on a brighter note , I was thrilled the pointer mix won as he is the only non-purebred and he is a sweetie

They changed the night to Wednesday, 8pm. I was also very sad to see Tillman leave. Just looking at him made me smile. He didn't seem to have a worry in the world. I thought the judges were kind of harsh, sending him home this early.

I just love that bulldog! I didn't want him to leave. I agree, angry was a silly emotion to have on there.

but it was one I could have done easily. Mom takes my ball and says "Mine"... I end up looking just like Leroy did without the bands. My MilkBone photographer captured this "Cujo" look for Mom before.

Mom agrees that Tillman's dismissal was unjust. We thought that LeRoy should have gone home basically from the handling point of view by his owner. She is pretty rought with her training on him.

Dang, we didn't know they changed the night and we missed it. Sorry to hear that Tillman had to go.

Mom thinks the same thing. totally unjust and leroys mom should have gone home and leroy should have stayed. she could have used some peanut butter i bet and put it on the roof of his mouth. mom has done this before ive looked evil she said

I don't think the dog who had to look angry's mom is very nice, it really bothers me how she talks to him. And don't even get me started on Brandy! I was really hoping she would go home, she drives me crazy! I loved Tillman, he and his dad were a great pair. But I have to say, Presley is my favorite.

Thats Brandy and Beacon right. Mom thinks Beacons a cutie but her mom is hillariously funny, mom just started laughing for no reason yesterday when she was in the kitchen just starting crap when umm hmmm cant think of names but whe nthe two were making food.

I wish they kept it on Thursday nights. Wed. night is when I have been taking more obedience training and I don't get home until 9pm. I'm sorry to hear that Tillman had to leave. I really liked him and his dad. He did the funniest things.

I loved the comment that Travis, presley's owner made to Brandi. She was whining about the judges comments to her,Travis interrupted her and she said "can we focus on me for a minute" and he replied sarcastically, "sure since this might be the last time" I loved it. Brandi talks to her dog very mean, especially when the dog licked the tofu, Brandi went and sat down and pouted and said something nasty to the dog. I'm sure the dog didn't have a clue, but her body language was very obvious.
My favorites are Bill and Star. I thought he did a better job on the photo shoot. He just treats and talks to his dog with much more compassion during down time, and during competition he's precise and to the point. He doesn't do any of that crazy yelling that some of the ladies do. It drive me nuts to listen, I can't imagine how their dogs feel about it.
