Zak George Says He Can Teach an Old Dog New Tricks
It's never been easier to parlay a great blog into a movie deal, or in the case of Zak George, flip a YouTube hit into a pet-tastic TV show. At this year's TCAs (a massive television conference happening right now in LA), Animal Planet introduced us to their new show called SuperFetch, which is hosted by extreme dog trainer Zak George. Apparently, Zak can teach your dog any trick and is taking his show on the road to prove it.
Tune In Tonight: Kathy Griffin Visits the Dog Whisperer
Tonight's new episode of Cesar Millan's Dog Whisperer will feature comedienne Kathy Griffin, who is on a quest to get her two beautiful, but mischievous rescue dogs to behave and curb their barking.
Her dogs, Chance, an 8-year-old male Lab and chow mix, and Pom Pom, a 3-year-old female Lab mix, are both regulars on her show My Life on the D List . .
The Greatest American Dog Dressed to Impress at the TCAs!
If you've been following the paths of Pop and Buzz, you'll know they were down in LA at the TCA Press Tour that wrapped up today. With panels and parties with all the major networks, they've met some very cool people, including several contestants from the Greatest American Dog. The five dogs present (left to right: Ezzie, Preston, Beacon, Tillman, and Bella Starlet) were just hanging out in the cabana with their owners all relaxed .
Reader's Choice Recap: Your Fave Small Screen Animal Stars
Great job on this Reader's Choice challenge! We came up with so many pets from TV, there were some furry (and feathered) faces I had totally forgotten about. See how many you can recognize in this slideshow!
Have You Ever Watched a TV Show for the Animals?
I definitely know I notice pets in films, but I think I've got good recall for pets on sitcoms or reality shows, too – many times that's what keeps me tuning in week after week. Have you ever watched a TV show more for the animals than the two-legged stars? I definitely tuned into Frasier for Eddie more than the actual plotline, and I remember when the show was on (and "Moose" was still alive), he got more fan mail than anyone else on the show.
Another Sneak Peek at the Greatest American Dog!
Remember when I hinted about that show Greatest American Dog? Well, I've got some more info courtesy of my pal, BuzzSugar. This new reality/ competition series pits 12 teams of pups and owners – with varying levels of training – against each other in games that test the training abilities and train-ability of the duos.Housecat Housecall Premieres This Saturday!
That's right, doggies aren't the only ones getting their own reality show! Stay tuned for a new show on Animal Planet called Housecat Housecall, where experienced vets help real families solve issues with their furry friends. I haven't gotten a sneak peek at the series yet, but I'm imagining it to be a bit like Supernanny for the four-legged parents who need HELP.
Reader's Choice: Share Your Fave Animals on TV!
Thinking up all those pets from classic TV got me wondering if I could possibly name a fave of all time. I thought I'd open it up to all of you who had such great ideas for movie star pets – do you simply adore any animals from TV, past or present? Be it reality stars or simply Tom&Jerry, as long as the pet played a major, recurring role in the show, that's fair game.
Think You Know Your Classic TV Doggies and Kitties?
When I'm battling a bit of insomnia like I have been lately, sometimes I just need to curl up on my couch with some classic TV . . .
Do You Have America's Greatest Dog?
If you've always wanted to be on TV, and you have a pup with some serious talent, then have I got a contest for you! I just stumbled across CBS's casting call for their new reality show tentatively called America's Greatest Dog, that puts dogs' (and owners') talents in the spotlight as they try to nab the title of Top Dog. That means, if I know anything about reality television, there will be drama, a few brawls (more likely between humans than canine), and a really swank house.
