Greatest American Dog - Week 10 Final

Posted on: Wednesday, September 10th, 2008 in: Greatest Dog Comments

While many people said they were done with the show the only measurement that I could see was in our site’s visitor count. This week’s visitor count exceeded all other weeks. As far as I could see the number of views has increased.

Overall I thought the last show was anti-climatic the interviews were boring, the obstacle course was a re-run and final exam had nothing new in it. I would have like d to see more comments from the other contestants. That would have been much more interesting.

This week two Best in Show Challenges with two eliminations.

The Best in Show Challenge #1: Interview

Lori & Andrew: Andrew showed just how much he is attached to Lori. He really does not have much independence.

JD & Galaxy: The only part of this interview shown was about JD not bathing Galaxy

Travis & Presley: Presley was the only dog that was tested.

Sent Home: JD & Galaxy. While JD was a poor looser I still don’t understand why JD & Galaxy.

The Best in Show Challenge #2: Part 1: Obstacle Course; Part 2: Final Exam

There was no winner or loser in the obstacle course. The Final Exam really did not tell us much. The deliberation was also boring.

The Greatest American Dog is: Presley

Overall I think Travis’ final comments were right on when he described the most important part of the show as demonstrating the bond and love between owner and dog.

Greatest American Dog - Week 9 Loyalty

Posted on: Thursday, September 4th, 2008 in: Greatest Dog Comments

Last week’s show resulted in a lot of fans stating that they were done with the show after Bill & Star were sent home. They were a favorite from the very beginning of the show. Maybe those reality shows that depend upon call in results have it right. The voting public never would have let something like this happen.

This week’s Dog Bone Challenge: How to overcome boredom. Tree stump sitting? What were they thinking? The winner: Theresa & Leroy, when Travis called Presley off from his stump sitting task.

The Best in Show Challenge:

Best in Show: Lori & Andrew

I have no idea about the value of this exercise. Rather than training with your dog each of the competitors got to bond with the other dogs. The higher the dog’s energy level the more difficult it was for the dog to stay. The judges decided who lost based upon how threatening (?) an owner was in their actions. I liked hearing the judges deliberate but I still don’t understand what they were thinking. The judges decided to send Theresa & Leroy home. The Judges decided that Leroy only stayed because of fear. I really don’t understand how they determined that.

Next week we find out who will win the title of the Greatest American Dog. Unfortunately I really don’t understand what will make any of these dogs the winner.
