IlovmydogMax (7/30/2008)
I was not able to watch tonights episode due to not knowing of the time change but i don't think it will be posted online untill tommarrow. I don't know if i will be home long enough to watch it and be on here to chat but i did want to say i really think Bill and travis have well trained dogs(Star and Presley) i also think both Bill and Travis have close relationships with their dogsAgree with your comments about Bill and Travis and their respective dogs. Close, loving, respectful relationships. Good role models for new dog owners.

starry*boy (7/31/2008)
First of all, I think that becan should of went home because first of all, that photo showed no love in it and honestly, I think she thought of that answer to the judges at the "last" minute. Plus I also feel like she is really "rude" and mean. I saw how she talked to Travis when she said "can we just focus here on my dog?" I know what she is doing though... She is attracted to Travis but he isn't attracted to her, he is attracted to laura and that makes becans owner mad which is why she is being rude like she did at the beg. of the show when she ruined his talk with laura in the kitchen.
Wow, was this bella scarlets first time not being at the elmination table?!? Impressive lol. I do have to say that I thought the judge that had the little dog in her arm was a total SNOB and she clearly needs help controlling her mouth. There was things she said last night that she should of maintained from saying and I don't like her.
That was a really good photo of galxey and sneaky! I want to tell Allan Reznik that I thought your comment to Travis was untrue. I didn't think the photo was generic. Personally, I thought it was a good photo and believe me I am not a fan of boxer photos. Joyess was a hard word and I thought that jumping was a perfect catagory.
Star, Galxey, Presley and preston are all very well trained dogs! I know they will make it to the final four. Least, I hope so anyway.
I was sad to see the bulldog go becuase the owner was very funny. He made me laugh on his jokes. I think I was uncontrollably laughing when he made the joke about how he drank four gallons of water from the pool and put it all back from farting. I felt like the photo expressed lazy and the black and white WAS a good choice because it made it look even more lazy for not picking color.
I knew when JD won the bone room that he was gonna send Travis to the dog house. I really like what Travis said, that he was just putting the farm boy back on the farm because he has a degree in farming, I read his bio on cbs lol. That made my mom even more happy since she is a farm girl and she has more faith in farmers then any other occupation. That is why she is rooting for Stars owner.
That is my input for the weekThanks for your input! Much appreciated.

Yoda's mom (7/31/2008)
I think last night's challenge was a difficult one to judge.
How do you rate creativity and artistry? What's looks "good" to one person may be "bad" to someone else.
I was impressed by all the photos last night -- even Tillman's and Beacon's.
What was it about Tillman's photo that made you decide that he had to go?
Seriously, was his photo worse than the use of snarl bands?Thanks for acknowledging that it was a difficult challenge to judge. It's hard to convey those qualities/emotions in a photo. Ron and Tillman were a great pair... very likeable. I think Ron just figured he could cruise through this one and not give it much thought. Unfortunately, in a black-and-white photo, all we saw was a black blob taking up half the picture. We couldn't tell if it was a piece of furniture, or a box, or... With all the goofy things we've seen that dog do, it really seemed like a lost opportunity.

lizabear (7/31/2008)
I must say that I think that using "angry" as an emotion for the photo shoot was not the best idea. Who want to see an angry dog? I cringed when I saw that photo of Leroy but hey, the producers wanted angry and they got it.
I have also decided that I don't agree with the judges not seeing what takes place in the house. In a previous best in show, the judges (I think it was you that pointed this out) took up issue with David switching hands while doing stay with Elvis which "confused" the dog. How about this for confusion: Being a loving, compassionate owner one minute, and then spraying citrus water in the dog's face...not for discipline...to try to get the dog angry. Poor Leroy was probably really CONFUSED wondering what he had done to deserve that. Then, blowing air in his face with a dryer spooking him to the point that he bit (I really think he was biting at the dryer and not her because if he was aiming for her he would've bit more than just a finger), then having your owner yelling and calling you inappropriate names (b**tard). Then annoying you while putting elastics in your mouth. Watching all of this was very disturbing. During the photo shoot poor Leroy was so stressed out he went right to her side either for comfort from being under so much stress and CONFUSION or to beg her to calm down and just love him and stop the tactics she was taking to make him angry. And her response to him..."I'm not your mommy right now". A lot of people are really upset with Teresa for making the choices she made but, at the same time, she should not have been put in that position to try to show an angry dog. Basically, the message I'm getting is that as long as the judges don't see it, it's ok. It's ok to act one way in the house but as long as it works out in best in show for the judges then nothing else matters...I'm CONFUSED.I wouldn't say that "nothing else matters" but in the reality shows that I watch (and it's not many, I confess), the judges don't get to see how the contestants interact with one another in the house they share, or how they prepare for the elimination round. This seems to be standard procedure. It's probably done to make sure that the judges don't get to know too much about any of the contestants or end up subconsciously favoring anyone.

I was SHOCKED to see Tillman go home last night. I really thought Leroy would leave.
What was the decision behind sending Tillman home vs. Leroy? If you had seen the photoshoot, do you think the results (of who got sent home) would have been different?

Still wish Ron had done something more interesting than give us a big black blob taking up half his photo. I think he figured Tillman pulling "lazy" was an automatic slamdunk and he could cruise through this one without exerting much effort or creativity.
