I know some of you on here watch this show...I do too, although I will say it is quite absurd...but amusing. I am wondering, what was it that JD did with Galaxy that was so bad? Victoria Stillwell really ripped on him. I thought he had a great strategy to get Galaxy through the maze? I didn't think that Leroy's owner did all that much, it just seemed like the puppies followed on their own. And can I say, thank goodness the weepy girl is gone. I'm sorry if i offend anyone, but she needs to get a grip...

I watched it for the first time last night, and was wondering why I never watched it before now. I loved it! I knew Bella-starlett (or whatever) needed to go during the first obstacle. Then she did horrible in the maze. What was the funniest part was when the judges were fighting, then kissed pottymouth and made up.

LOL!! I agree about Beth Joy and Bella Starlet. I couldn't watch her cry one more time! I was surprised that Bill pushed Star as hard as he did. I think he got caught up in the moment and didn't want to fail. I love those two! Preston and Travis are probably another fave of mine. I swear that dog ran the maze in 15 secs flat!! LOL!! He may not have gotten the pups out, but he was sure having a GREAT time! I don't know what JD did to Galaxy. I know that there was some drama about him using the scruff grabbing to get Galaxy to do what he told her too, but he in NO way has hurt that dog.

I agree with the magazine editor judge, that different people have different ways of training dogs. JD didn't do anything horrible to galaxy. Bill was a little hard on star, but he just wanted to see her succeed. I LOVE Preston. I had a boxer, and the way preston was jumping around, and throwing his paw over the puppy in the leg up thing, reminded me so much of him. I think Preston is awesome for such a young dog!

I think the judges were a little to critical of Travis and Presley. Yes I know he didn't bring the pups out BUT he ran that maze better than anyone and more times! And the last time Travis sent him in he went and FOUND THE PUPPIES just as Travis said! Beth and Bella NEEDED to go. I couldn't handle another week of those two. Bill and Star were a sad site. It was tough to watch. JD is good to Galaxy overall I think. He just trains him differently. Leroy was a fluke I think.

It's funny, my 8 year old son and I watch this together and he always feels sorry for the ones who get booted off. He's so sweet, he actually feels bad for the dogs. I couldn't have been happier when the schnauzer girl (can't remember names well) and now Beth Joy. Next I would like to see Laurie and Andrew (maltese) go. I really like Travis, but I think I want Bill and Star to win it. He seems so genuine. Yes, he did push Star a bit last night, but he had good intentions. The little judge showdown was hilarious! This is definitely a show that you go, oh this is silly, but you can't help but watch it!

I sure was sad to see Bill and his 'orange dog' go home. Andrew is next for sure. I feel so bad for galaxy and her leg injury because i know she would win without it.

I got teary eyed watching Bill say goodbye to everyone. He was such a good guy and I loved Star. I'm mad that they criticized him for having her take the blue ramp, he was looking out for her. Last week they criticized him for pushing her to hard. I don't think he would have done anything right in their eyes. Why didn't they give Andrew a hard time for using the blue ramp too? Little dog, he could have made it up that ramp too I think. Grrr. The elephant stunt was crazy! I am so surprised any of them stayed put....

Oh man did last nights show make me cry. First I was SO moved by the trust that the dogs had in their owners for staying with the elephant coming at them. Then when Galaxy went flying down the zipline without hesitation......wow....blew my mind. Then when JD realized she was hurt...man....more crying. Then Bill going home. I can't take it.

I'm just glad Bella Star and her crazy mom are off the show! But I did hate to see Bill and Star leave. They were the sweetest pair.

It was so awful for them to go! I thought Bill and Star or Laurie and Andrew should win. I also like Travis and Presley. And JD and Galaxy are impressive, even if they've not won my heart. So I wish that Teresa and Leroy went home... But unfortunately, the judges made the only fair decision in this matter, considering the situation!
