Did anyone see this last night - my lasting memory will be that yappy, snarly little thing with a ridiculous pink outfit on.  No wonder it was so upset - he'll have no street cred now!

AND, AND ... she spends £100 a week on him!!!!  The expression 'more money than sense' comes to mind!  I thought the presenter was very brave putting her hands anywhere near him!

I thought "How sad is she.  She can't love her pet if she dresses him like that"

Poor thing I felt really sorry for it.  I did think that the Yorkie was cute with the telly mind.  Waving and stroking at it.

The parrots were funny too.

Have you done any of the tests?  I have and just as I thouhgt my dogs are not particularly brainy but I love them anyway.

Can't wait for next weeks programme.

I would love to know where bimbos like that get all their money from, it can hardly be from a high powered job. She looked as though she couldn't handle anything too taxing. Must be some gullible sugar daddy.

I did the tests :-P (dog clearly thought I had gone mad and went back to her spot on the back of a chair looking out of the window and frowning at me)  and my dog scored 0 is that a record? :-)

lol@reddoor. I think the test are flawed, I mean not all pets are food orientated, and the one where you have to drop a treat on a cushion above their head height. Some dogs are trained not to go on furniture so they wouldn't feel right jumping up on the cushion to get it. Also the ten commandment one, again that all depends on how much training the dog has had in the first place. It could be a genius dog but if it isn't trained to do those tricks, well it would make it look a right thicko! Maybe I'm taking these tests all a bit too seriously. :P

Hi Harriet - to be fair to good old Rolf, they did say to use treats or favourite toy. Also, the cushion one, it was to see if your pet followed the treat/toy, not to see if it would jump on the chair to get it. You had to see if your pet looked for it on the floor or to see if it realised that it had fallen on the cushion and no further.
I've not bothered trying any of them yet - might try them on hubby first !!!.

Hi Harriet, I only tried three tests, my old girl (13) has heart problems and I let her do her own thing these days, she has earned it and I know the time we have together grows short. She is very bright though,one wet day when she was young I rolled her ball down the stairs, she watched it bounce from stair to stair then fetched it from the bottom returning it to me.  I did this a few times then went to get on with some work. A little while later I heard a thud thud and went in the hall to see she was playing the game by herself! She also used to play cricket with a small ball using a squeaky dog  pork chop as a bat. :-D

I've not tried any tests yet, I have whippets who are only interested in having a kip. Don't think I could motivate them to even bother trying! LOL Maybe I could say to them "hey lads, if you do this test you can have a lie down on my bed afterwards" think that might be a good incentive for them to try. :P
