Should Presley and Travis Have Won Greatest American Dog?
Yesterday 56 percent of PetSugar readers predicted Presley and Travis would be crowned the champions of Greatest American Dog and they were spot on! Travis, the lovable 29-year-old bartender, and Presley, his one-and-a-half year old Boxer, took their triumphant victory lap together after beating out the 11 other teams of dogs and owners from across the US. Travis accepted the honor with complete humility, saying:
"The greatest American dog doesn't have to be perfect...It's about the love for your animals."

First off, I can't believe this show is over already! It feels like just yesterday we were getting to know these super pooches and their (sometimes dramatic) owners. But last night it was all about the final three.

It was another doozy on Greatest American Dog. With dancing last time and now painting this week . .
What Do You Know About Boxers?
It wasn't a huge surprise when Travis's darling Boxer, Presley, was crowned the Greatest American Dog this week, especially because the two were one of my favorite teams from the get-go. Travis describes Presley as "hyper, intelligent, affectionate, ultrafriendly, and playful," which fits right in line with the Boxer breed. What else do you know about Boxers?
Greatest American Dog: Brandy Tells All to PetSugar!
Last week's episode of the Greatest American Dog saw Brandy and her Miniature Schnauzer, Beacon, leave the house. I had the chance to speak with Brandy about her time on the show, plus her plans now that she's home again, and I can't wait to share it all with you! Was Beacon really sad in the end?
Greatest American Dog: The Fast and the Furriest
There is always time for love in between team challenges and I think something is a-brewing on Greatest American Dog between Travis (single!) and Laura as they start "getting to know each other" a little better. I get the feeling the entire house is developing a crush on Travis considering the daggers Laura was getting thrown by the other ladies! Something tells me there is some juicy drama on the way .
Who Do You Want to Win Greatest American Dog?
Check out the last three pups standing for the title of Greatest American Dog! The show's finale is tonight and I know I'm tuning in to watch Galaxy (J.D.'s Border Collie/Pointer mix), Presley (Travis' Boxer), and Andrew (Laurie's Maltese) battle it out for a cool $250,000. No doubt there'll be more crazy competitions – before seeing who performs the best, who'd get your vote now?
Do You Let Pets Jump Up?
One of my favorite comments from last night's episode of Greatest American Dog came from Laurie's interaction with the other contestants' dogs. While her Maltese, Andrew, is tiny, he's also super mellow and well-behaved. When Presley (Travis's big Boxer) jumped up on her, she seemed shocked and said that wasn't OK with "Auntie Laurie" .
Greatest American Dog Recap: My Dog Can Fly!
First puppies and now an elephant?! For last night's episode of Greatest American Dog, the remaining humans (Travis, J.D., Bill, Laurie, and Teresa) had to get their pets (Presley, Galaxy, Star, Andrew, and Leroy) to sit in a circle as an elephant approached them, made tons of noise and flapped its ears, and eventually got close enough to pick up a banana placed nearby. It came down to a faceoff between Presley and Andrew, and the smallest pooch there (Laurie's Maltese) didn't move a muscle – wow!
