Hey, Bored Four-footers!

#1 Post by MarleysGh0st » Thu Jan 24, 2008 3:12 pm

tvgameshows.net says that CBS has picked up three new game shows, one of which offers an opportunity for a long neglected demographic: America's Top Dog.
Top Dog is a competition to test a canine's relationship with his or her owner. The show will mix top pedigrees with Humane Society adoptees in a battle for more than $50,000.
Annie, Casey, Bingo...here's your chance! :)

Thanks, Marley. The CBS site says the show is "now casting," but doesn't include a link to more information or an application. So far, I haven't been able to find out much about this show, but I think standard obedience stuff is part of it, as the press release blurbs say something about the "relationship between a dog and the person who raised and trained it. If that's the case, Annie probably would not be a candidate because she can no longer do -- I mean, she physically cannot do -- some rather simple-sounding stuff, such as "sit." Lizbit is still too young, and she would get bounced on the first episode for stealing all the other dogs' chewie bones and hiding them. She would sit properly and look angelic during the interrogation, however.

Tigger would have been a contender. I expect to see several therapy dogs and rescue dogs among the finalists.

Well, gosh darn it!

I figured Annie would tell about all you've done for her and that relationship story would win by a landslide!

Thanks for thinking of MissCaseyGrrl, Marley!

I'm too lazy to help her log in right now, or she'd thank you too! Because she really is a top dog! And really fast! And cute!

I'd like to get her into agility class, she would be a star. Maybe this summer.
