You did a great job and I wish that I was there to see it. I saw board up a month or so ago and I did not see Eddie there. Otherwise I would have voted for him. Darn. WTG Eddie. You are my Grandkids Idol. They want to grow up just like you.

Thanks, everybody.

Sharon, sure I'll train your gang! Guaranteed top-3 finish in next year's Pet Idol. But you have to leave them with me for a full year! I'll let you visit, though!

And mypreciouspups, here's a picture of Eddie with many of the remaining toys. He has already demolished most of the first ones I gave him. I think the fire hydrant is a hoot. It was packed full of toys. He also got an $85 gift certificate to the feed store that hosted the event, a $75 gift certificate to a dog wash/doggie daycare/boarding facility and a $40 gift certificate to a scoop the poop service. Once the snow starts thawing, I'm going to call the scoop service to help clean up the park I where I walk the boys.

Formycoby, yes, you're absolutely right. And if I can ever figure out what it is he wants me to do, I think we're going to be great!

Congratulations!! And I love your shirt Mike, you like like a proud papa!

"Congratulations" Eddie & Mikie. You both did a great job. Ah....Eddie, you deserve all those toys you got. You worked hard for them. Thanks for sharing that video with all of us.

LOL, thanks. I have a shirt that a YTer made for me (eek, I forget who right now!), but I couldn't find it. So I went through a Kodak web site the week before the semifinals and paid for overnight delivery to get a shirt with a picture of Eddie on it.

I'm such a pageant dad.

your video tickled me ...
great job you did with your Yorkie.

He really is a winner.

I don't know that is aweful tempting, but I think that we are just going to have to train for it on our own. I just don't know how I can part with my little ones. I would feel naked or something weird like that. LOL. But you and I can have training visits and I will just be okay with 9 or 10th. LOL.

It looks like you and Eddie cleaned up really good. All those wonderful toys and goodies that you totally deserve for all that hard work.
