GAD’s Laurie And Andrew Interview

I’m happy to announce I will be doing an interview with Laurie and Andrew of Greatest American Dog fame.
I know they had a lot of Dogster fans, so I thought it would be fun to do something a little different than the standard interview.
Rather than me coming up with questions for the 2nd place duo, I’m asking you to submit questions, then I’ll pick some to be included.
Ask anything you want, about the show or Laurie’s dog training business. Find out what Andrew really thought about sleeping in the Dog Bone suite. This is your chance to get the real scoop on the behind the scenes goings on at Greatest American Dog.
Leave your question in the comment section by Monday, October 13th if you would like a chance at being included in the interview. Bark away!






Oh My GOSH… we are so excited to hear that you are going to do an interview with Laurie. We liked her so much on Greatest American Dog and we still laugh when Andrew stood there still as could be with the elephant foot looming over his head.
We do have a question for Laurie: How hard was it for you to be away from your family during the filming of Greatest American Dog?
We love Andrew and you are a pawsome trainer Laurie.
Love your pals in Charlotte….

Hi Laurie and Andrew! What is the first thing you sould teach a dog? Also can they be taught at any age? We have two Rott/Lab’s .one Cocker Spaniel and one Yorkie. Thank’s
We’d like to know: If you could change one thing about the competition, what would it be and why?
In your Dogster bio it said Andrew started off with no hair and was the runt. He is one of many dogs you own. Why did you choose him to enter into the Greatest American Dog over your other fur babies?
Hi Laurie and Andrew, I was routing for the both of you and let me tell you the outstanding job you both did. I admire the way you handle Andrew and his devotion to you was remarkable. How did you get to be on on America’s Greatest Dog? I have an amazing Sheltie and would love to be on the show any suggestions? Thanks Lisa and Lola
OMG! I was wondering, How old is Andrew? By the way,
he`s adorable! How do u sighn up for Greatest American dog?
Your fan,
Autumn
Laurie and Andrew, you were my favorites. How did you really feel about that challenge with the elephant and zip line?
Hi Laurie and Andrew,
First I’d like to say that it was a delight to see someone who was knowledgeable about dog training and using positive methods. You were very inspiring.
My question is: how different was your experience from what aired on TV? I know there is a ton of editing involved. Was what we saw as viewers representative of the actual experience?
Thank you for everything and take care
We so admire Andrew and Laurie’s connection. How long per day does Laurie work with Andrew and her other dogs? Who does she feel was the toughest judge? Is she still friends with any of the other contestants? What suggestions would she give to multi dog owners about keeping peace within the pack? How did she come to love dogs so much….family or something inside her? What breed was her very first dogs she ever owned? We love you, Laurie and Andrew. You rock!
Hello, I have a question for Laurie & Andrew for Monday October 13th. I have been wondering if only the first place winner got a prize or if maybe the top six were given prizes or maybe the top 2 or 3. I also thought possibly all of the contestants that made it to the television show might get a prize according to how long they were on the show.
Thank you,
Cassie Russell
