East Grinstead's Got Talent!

Today we had our East Grinstead's Got Talent audition! It was in the theatre and Millie had never been there before (I don't remember the last time I went here either!)

Millie was really good, though I felt she was a bit distracted and could have been better, she was still fantastic! She did all her tricks well, though I forgot some of the tricks! Everyone liked her performance and thought that a dog riding a scooter and skateboard was amazing! 

We will find out on Tuesday whether we got through to the finals or not. It would be fantastic if we did but if not Millie still did excellently and it was a good experience!

She's tired out now!



Also, thank you to Earl, Ethel and their lover at Earls World for our fantastic banner! We love it!

Training and a Stolen Stollen!

Today Millie and I have done a bit of training. We haven't been able to go outside though as it's been pouring with rain!

Joe was here too earlier and we had to go our for a few minutes and leave them here. Millie, Joe, or both of them managed to find a stollen and ate it all! Cheeky doggies!

Tricks for the next Geek award!

Today we filmed the last two tricks for the Geek award, playing a musical instrument and finding a named item. The video has now been submitted and hopefully it will be ok! Millie certainly did all the tricks well!

She really loves her tambourine, once she starts, she won't stop!

A Little Update!

Havent posted for a few days so here is a little update!

Millie was a good girl at dog training on Monday and was a lot calmer than she was the week before! She did everything well just she didn't want to wait for the recalls! At least she came to me though which was fine! 

Yesterday, Millie's tambourine came and she picked up how to play jet straight away! It's very sweet and she likes it! 

We haven done much else as there hasn't been time but we are doing another talent show on Sunday so hopefully that will go well!

Talent Show!

Yesterday we came back up to Suffolk for the holiday Millie won and the next round of the talent show!

This morning we had the rehearsals which went very well. It was decided that Millie would go first so she didn't have to wait around! 

We got there this evening and there were loads of people, we struggled to even get to the stage! Millie was absolutely fantastic, despite all the people there! She did all her tricks amazingly!

Afterwards we went to wait outside out of the noise and heat. Millie had a go on her scooter and skateboard there and everyone was taking videos of her on their phones! Everyone who came out said how good she was!

After a long wait, the results were announced and we came 2nd! Millie was brilliant as ever!

A little bit of training

Millie and I did a bit of training today in preparation for our talent show on Saturday! 

She was good and did lots of tricks. Skateboarding, jumping, handstands up the wall, the whole lot! I'm sure she'll be brilliant on Saturday, just as she was last Saturday! 

Can't say the same about me though. I still can't decide what music I want playing in the background...

Paws in the Park

Today was Paws in the Park! We had a good day! We auditioned for 'My Dogs Got Talent', which Millie did very well in and rode both the scooter and the skateboard and did some other tricks too! 

We then did the Heelwork to Music with Richard Curtis, which again, Millie was very good at! She did all the moves easily and wasn't distracted by the other dogs all around her. 

After this we had a walk around the stalls and while we were walking we had a look at the 'My Dogs Got Talent' Finals list and we were in it! We walked around a bit more and then it was time for the finals. All the dogs were very clever and Millie and I were second to go. We started by doing the skateboard and the scooter, which got a huge applause from the audience! We then carried on to do other things such as taking off my coat, all sorts of jumping etc! Once we were done, I couldn't carry the scooter, skateboard and the stick so Millie rode the skateboard out if the ring for me! She was fantastic and loved doing it, the more people watching and applauding her, the more she likes it! The other competitions went and the results were announced. My amazing Millie managed to get 1st place! Everyone said how much we deserved it and how clever she is! We won a 15kg bag of dog food, a dog encyclopaedia, a rosette and a certificate! She was absolutely brilliant!



After this, we entered the 'Best Trick' class in the companion dog show. This is not such a big thing as 'My Dogs Got Talent'. We only had 2 minutes and again, Millie was fantastic and rode the scooter etc. However, 1st place deserved it but the others weren't so good and I think the results were unfair. We got 5th though which was better than nothing! I think sonetimes the judges think that Millie is too good and that she must always win but we hardly ever come 1st in Best Trick because they all seem to think that!

Either way, the 5th was good and the 1st was fantastic! Millie enjoyed herself and is now completely tired out!
