I was glad to see them go. Kenji seemed like a nervous wreck all the time: I guess I would too if I had some shhing me like that all the time. Bella Stralet is a little confusing to me; isn’t she a TV dog? She really does not seem to very well trained at all to me. I love Travis & Presley they are a real inspiration to us novice trainers:)

Elan & Kenji really were the ones that deserved to go, really. I was on the fence with Bella Starlet. The woman backsassed the judge and shouldn’t expect to stay next time ’round. That’s just my opinion. I dress my smallest dog sometimes, so I’m not totally against it, however if they were judging my grooming I would not have dressed her.

Bill & Star are just too cute. I was so scared for Star after the incident, but Bill sure loves her deeply and you can tell. She’s his everything!

I absolutley adore Travis and Presley. They are the poster couple for american “bachelors”. Love them!

When you think about it, the premise of the show is sorta backwards. They send home the dogs/owners who are the worst and weakest. They should be the ones to remain on the show and get one-on-one help! But, that wouldn’t make for a dramatic reality show, of course.

I would like to see a show where they just take average, every-day dogs and owners (like my Lucie and me!) and teach us and coach us one-on-one with a trainer. My dog can do sit, down, come, leave it, and shake. But she’s not too good with stay. I never taught her heel or how to spin around or walk backwards.

We’re big Bill & Star fans! I really enjoy watching them just be together. They just love each other and it’s sweet. It’s nice to se the majority of the people & their dogs get along so wel together. It was cute when Travis & Presley shared their suite with everyone and everydog…really LOVE LOVE LOVE the show!

Bill and Star rule. His obvious love for that precious Brittany shows us what a true gentleman he is.

We totally agree on above remarks – it’s always a shame when a pair is sent home (wish they had devised a kinder way to handle it, tho), but this week was so obvious (it’s a wonder they didn’t decide to send two pairs!) But I really feel that Bill and Star stole the show – they certainly get my vote!
Love those dogs!

We just wanted to add that we hope Beth Joy and Bella Starlet go next. Beth Joy is too stressed out, and yelling at the judges is a very poor decision for her – shows some lack of self-control which effects her relationship with Bella Starlet.

We were quite glad to see Elan & Kenji to go. We hope that Elan sees the error her ways for Kenji’s sake. Even in the closing interview, Elan got onto Kenji – and Kenji wasn’t even doing anything (maybe lifting her head).

We’ve been rooting for Bill and Star since before the 1st show because they’re from Texas and so are we… The more we watch the show, the more we fall in love with them. They definitely have a good, caring relationship as well as work well together.

I really didn’t like how David gave JRTz more bad rap! His dog not listening to him is soley his fault, not “He’s a Jack Russell, their crazy, you never know what they are going to do” Also laughing when your dog bites another dog’s eye is ridiculous, not to mention him confusing Elvis even more by laughing and petting him when he broke his stays. David should really take to heart the advice Bill gave him, and hopefully he will stop blaming his dog not listening to him on the breed!! I really like Bill and Star, and Laurie and Andrew. They are really great owners and they truly know what they are doing. Kudos to them!!

I had a feeling Elan and, unfortunately, Kenji, wouldn’t last after watching the first show. Elan obviously had no control over Kenji because Kenji was totally out of control on the first show. Kenji is a beautiful, beautiful dog and I pray Elan gets it and realizes she must change her training technique — it’s hurting Kenji, not helping her.

I actually thought the judges were going to change their decision and give Beth Joy and Bella Starlet the boot after Beth Joy went off on them. When they said they were judging on grooming and Bella Starlet walked out with clothes on, I thought to myself, uh, I think you better take that off her Beth Joy. Man up, Beth Joy, Man up!!! HA! HA!

My favs are Star and Bill and Travis and Presley. I was in tears, of course, when Bill was missing his family and Star came up to him — I lost it!! Then, when Star was injured and Travis got emotional — I lost it again! I remember the first time Coco had a reverse sneeze attack. It scared the bajeebees out of me. I had never heard of a ‘reverse sneeze’ and I thought she was choking. I called her vet’s office to tell them what was happening and as soon as the vet tech told me what it was, I broke down. I think I lost it because I was scared and relieved all at the same time. So, I probably would have been like Travis — gettin’ all emotional and stuff.
