0:00:02 > 0:00:06Welcome to Animals At Work, the show that brings you animals at work.
0:00:06 > 0:00:10Around the world, there are millions of animals that have jobs.
0:00:10 > 0:00:11Agh! Agh!
0:00:13 > 0:00:16This is the show that brings you the most extraordinary, bizarre
0:00:16 > 0:00:18and unusual animals at work.
0:00:18 > 0:00:20Coming up...
0:00:20 > 0:00:23A spaniel who might have a champion's nose
0:00:23 > 0:00:25for truffle hunting...
0:00:25 > 0:00:28I'm trying to make her sit. Nellie, sit.
0:00:29 > 0:00:31..an extreme doggy athlete
0:00:31 > 0:00:33about to take on his next adventure challenge...
0:00:35 > 0:00:38..and a swimming sports star who's practising
0:00:38 > 0:00:40to be the smartest fish in the world.
0:00:40 > 0:00:41Enjoy the show.
0:00:57 > 0:00:59We've caught a whiff of one animal at work
0:00:59 > 0:01:01who is certainly not to be sniffed at.
0:01:02 > 0:01:05I knew I should have had a bath this morning.
0:01:05 > 0:01:06Sorry, Dennis.
0:01:08 > 0:01:12We're joining a snooping spaniel at the UK's first Truffle Championships.
0:01:15 > 0:01:17We're off to Wiltshire in England.
0:01:23 > 0:01:27In the heart of rural Wiltshire, there's a rare breed of dog
0:01:27 > 0:01:29on a gourmet mission.
0:01:29 > 0:01:33This special Sussex spaniel has an exceptional job.
0:01:34 > 0:01:37In just two months she's going to be taking part
0:01:37 > 0:01:41in the first ever British Truffle Hunting Championships.
0:01:41 > 0:01:44One of the most expensive foods money can buy.
0:01:45 > 0:01:48Sit, sit. Obey.
0:01:48 > 0:01:52I'm Sophie, I'm 13 years old and I'm Nellie's handler
0:01:52 > 0:01:55and I'm training her to be a truffle hunter.
0:01:55 > 0:01:58Basically she has to go around woods, good girl,
0:01:58 > 0:02:00and sniff out these, which are truffles,
0:02:00 > 0:02:04and tell us where they are, so we can dig them out,
0:02:04 > 0:02:06cos they're valuable.
0:02:06 > 0:02:07Yeah.
0:02:07 > 0:02:09Nellie! Nellie!
0:02:09 > 0:02:11Truffles are referred to as "diamonds of the kitchen."
0:02:11 > 0:02:15They grow in the earth to about the size of a ping-pong ball.
0:02:17 > 0:02:20Nellie! Truffles!
0:02:20 > 0:02:25They are massively popular, massively strong tasting
0:02:25 > 0:02:28and massively expensive.
0:02:28 > 0:02:31A kilo of truffles can cost £200.
0:02:32 > 0:02:33I felt pretty stupid
0:02:33 > 0:02:38when I found out that they're not just chocolates.
0:02:39 > 0:02:43At home with the rest of her clan, Nellie is a bit of a let down.
0:02:43 > 0:02:45She's not the shining star at home.
0:02:45 > 0:02:47I'm trying to make her sit.
0:02:47 > 0:02:48Nellie, sit.
0:02:52 > 0:02:53How do you make them sit?
0:02:54 > 0:02:57Nellie lives alongside six brothers and sisters
0:02:57 > 0:03:00who are renowned for their beauty in the dog show world.
0:03:00 > 0:03:08Meet Crufts contenders Onslow, Betty, Thelma, Sybil, Dizzy and Fred.
0:03:08 > 0:03:10Nellie hasn't always been the runt of the litter.
0:03:10 > 0:03:13When she was born she was named after Nellie the elephant
0:03:13 > 0:03:15because she was the heaviest pup in the pack.
0:03:15 > 0:03:17# Off she went with a trumpety-trump,
0:03:17 > 0:03:18# Trump, trump, trump! #
0:03:18 > 0:03:20But she grew up to be the smallest.
0:03:20 > 0:03:23But that's not the only reason
0:03:23 > 0:03:26Nellie hasn't been invited to the family pretty party.
0:03:26 > 0:03:29Nellie's not doing showing because she has two crooked teeth.
0:03:29 > 0:03:32These two teeth here.
0:03:32 > 0:03:36Taking part in the truffle hunting championships
0:03:36 > 0:03:39is Nellie's chance to show her family that she is just as good as them -
0:03:39 > 0:03:41just a little bit different.
0:03:41 > 0:03:44It's important that she has a job and she gets to do this.
0:03:44 > 0:03:46This is her chance to shine.
0:03:46 > 0:03:50Being a truffle hunter should be the ideal job for her.
0:03:50 > 0:03:53Like all spaniels, Nellie is good with people and loves being busy.
0:03:55 > 0:03:58But her extra special talent is in her nose.
0:03:58 > 0:04:01Whenever we take her around she's always sniffing.
0:04:01 > 0:04:04She sniffs a lot, more than they usually do.
0:04:04 > 0:04:07Noses are to spaniels like eyes are to humans.
0:04:07 > 0:04:10They use them to smell everything.
0:04:10 > 0:04:12Usually truffle hunting in open ground
0:04:12 > 0:04:16is carried out by specially trained dogs,
0:04:16 > 0:04:18but Nellie is brand new to the game.
0:04:18 > 0:04:21With only eight weeks until the championship,
0:04:21 > 0:04:23she's got a lot of learning to do.
0:04:23 > 0:04:26To get Nellie in fine snuffling truffling form,
0:04:26 > 0:04:29Sophie is taking her to a truffle hunting expert.
0:04:29 > 0:04:33They will go on a crash training course that will teach Nellie
0:04:33 > 0:04:36to divert her attention away from other smells
0:04:36 > 0:04:38and towards the goal - the truffle!
0:04:38 > 0:04:40I'm putting all my trust in Nellie.
0:04:40 > 0:04:43I'm not sure how stiff the competition will be,
0:04:43 > 0:04:44but it will probably be quite stiff.
0:04:44 > 0:04:47We have quite high expectations of her, really.
0:04:47 > 0:04:50Truffle hunting is going to be, like, her calling.
0:04:54 > 0:04:57From sniffing to surfing, we're off to Cornwall.
0:05:05 > 0:05:07In the sand and surf of coastal Cornwall,
0:05:07 > 0:05:11lives a 15lb adventure fanatic.
0:05:12 > 0:05:17Meet Part Ex, a Jack Russell Terrier who lives life on the edge.
0:05:19 > 0:05:23Part Ex holds the Guinness world record for most extreme sports dog.
0:05:23 > 0:05:28With his adventure buddy JP he kayaks, he rock climbs,
0:05:28 > 0:05:31he surfs, and he cliff-jumps!
0:05:33 > 0:05:36That's right. Ciff-jumps.
0:05:42 > 0:05:46Whenever we go near moving water, Part Ex gets really, really excited.
0:05:46 > 0:05:50I think what's going on in his head is "Yay! Time to go and play!"
0:05:52 > 0:05:55What he tries to do, he tries to woof and bite the wave,
0:05:55 > 0:05:58and as you can see on the way out, he'll just try and yap, bite,
0:05:58 > 0:06:02grab the wave and it's impossible, you know, he can't grab the wave.
0:06:02 > 0:06:04He often ends up swallowing quite a bit.
0:06:06 > 0:06:08Even JP was surprised when he found out
0:06:08 > 0:06:12that his puppy pal was an enthusiastic natural at watersports.
0:06:14 > 0:06:16Four or five years ago I was being filmed surfing
0:06:16 > 0:06:20and Part Ex was along for the ride and going up and down the beach.
0:06:20 > 0:06:22I happened to drag my board out behind me,
0:06:22 > 0:06:25thinking that Part Ex was safe on the beach.
0:06:25 > 0:06:28I turned around and there he was on the board on all fours,
0:06:28 > 0:06:30ready to play, so I thought "Oh, I'll give this a go!"
0:06:30 > 0:06:33I tried surfing in two or three times and from then on
0:06:33 > 0:06:35he's been surfing with me all the time.
0:06:39 > 0:06:41They think they are bigger, better, stronger, faster
0:06:41 > 0:06:45than anything else around them. Even though they're really small,
0:06:45 > 0:06:48they think they're bigger than any Rottweiler that's around
0:06:48 > 0:06:50and they'll challenge and take on anything.
0:06:53 > 0:06:56Today Part Ex is ready to make a splash
0:06:56 > 0:06:59at the brand new extreme sport - waterskiing!
0:06:59 > 0:07:03I've chosen waterskiing cos it's another water-related activity.
0:07:03 > 0:07:04I know that he really likes that.
0:07:04 > 0:07:07I'm worried about the speed of the boat
0:07:07 > 0:07:10and if he jumps off or falls off while it's going really fast,
0:07:10 > 0:07:14but he's tough little cookie and he always comes back for more,
0:07:14 > 0:07:16so we'll just see. We'll take it at his pace.
0:07:18 > 0:07:20Will this crazy, courageous athlete
0:07:20 > 0:07:23be able to stay on the narrow board behind a speeding boat?
0:07:23 > 0:07:26The way that we're planning to take on the waterskiing
0:07:26 > 0:07:29is to first go surfing on the big board where both of us can get on
0:07:29 > 0:07:33and I can see how he's doing, see if he enjoys it or not.
0:07:33 > 0:07:36If he does well on that we're gonna move on to the little board
0:07:36 > 0:07:39and he's gonna do it all by himself without any help from me.
0:07:39 > 0:07:42MUSIC: "Wipeout" by The Surfaris
0:07:51 > 0:07:55He stays on the board! Part Ex can add another sport to his name!
0:07:55 > 0:07:57This dog can ski!
0:08:03 > 0:08:06Part Ex seems worried about losing his board buddy.
0:08:10 > 0:08:13Wait a minute - no he's loving it!
0:08:13 > 0:08:16Part Ex has no trouble keeping his balance, unlike JP.
0:08:18 > 0:08:19Man overboard!
0:08:20 > 0:08:21Again.
0:08:21 > 0:08:24Little Part Ex has mastered the big board.
0:08:24 > 0:08:26Time to take it to the next level.
0:08:33 > 0:08:37The extreme doggy athlete triumphs again!
0:08:40 > 0:08:43I think the next thing on Part Ex's list must be something like
0:08:43 > 0:08:47parachuting tandem from a great height, or something
0:08:47 > 0:08:49wild and extreme like that.
0:08:49 > 0:08:52But that's work for another sunny day.
0:08:52 > 0:08:57For now, Part Ex is clocking off and doing a little extreme napping.
0:09:02 > 0:09:05We've been looking out for your home videos
0:09:05 > 0:09:07of what animals get up to on the weekend.
0:09:07 > 0:09:10Take these two racing ferrets from Kent, England.
0:09:10 > 0:09:12- This is Lala.- And this is Crystal.
0:09:12 > 0:09:14Ferrets have the most fun
0:09:14 > 0:09:16when they can race in a place shaped like a tunnel.
0:09:33 > 0:09:35And Crystal wins by a ferrety furry nose!
0:09:40 > 0:09:44Back to the super-sniffer Nellie in Wiltshire.
0:09:44 > 0:09:47Nellie the Sussex spaniel is on track
0:09:47 > 0:09:51for her new job as a professional truffle hunter.
0:09:51 > 0:09:54So basically she has to go around woods, good girl,
0:09:54 > 0:09:57and sniff out these, which are truffles.
0:09:57 > 0:10:00It's been a slow start for smelling Nellie.
0:10:00 > 0:10:01Nellie! Truffles!
0:10:01 > 0:10:05If she is to have any chance of winning
0:10:05 > 0:10:07the British Truffle Championships
0:10:07 > 0:10:10she has to put her nose to the ground for her first day of training.
0:10:10 > 0:10:16She also has to prove to her family that she can live up to the breed.
0:10:16 > 0:10:19I'm pretty nervous because I've never done this before.
0:10:19 > 0:10:22These luscious grounds are specifically designed
0:10:22 > 0:10:25for the immense task, and the dogs in training will be taught
0:10:25 > 0:10:28to look for the truffle scent by expert tutor, Marion.
0:10:28 > 0:10:33This exercise is more on scent recognition
0:10:33 > 0:10:38and strengthening the dog's response with its indication.
0:10:38 > 0:10:41For the first lesson, Marion puts some truffle oil in a cup
0:10:41 > 0:10:44so that the dogs can recognize the scent.
0:10:46 > 0:10:48Step one, the dog must walk and sniff.
0:10:50 > 0:10:54Step two, the dog must snuffle truffle and sit.
0:10:54 > 0:10:55Well done.
0:10:55 > 0:10:57Step three, the dog is rewarded.
0:10:57 > 0:11:01So what we have to do is make sure the dog
0:11:01 > 0:11:05is really, really, really motivated to find a truffle.
0:11:05 > 0:11:08But Nellie slept through the lesson.
0:11:08 > 0:11:10For your dog to learn anything, it needs to be awake.
0:11:10 > 0:11:14Sleepy Nellie is the first dog to give it a go.
0:11:15 > 0:11:17She masters walking and sniffing.
0:11:17 > 0:11:20Sit. Sit. Nellie, sit.
0:11:20 > 0:11:23- But sitting has always been a bit of a problem for Nellie.- Nellie!
0:11:23 > 0:11:27Next is Gabby the King Charles spaniel, who goes off like a shot.
0:11:27 > 0:11:29- Go on, Gabby.- Come on, Gabby.
0:11:31 > 0:11:32Good girl.
0:11:32 > 0:11:36Nellie takes the opportunity to have a good think about the lessons.
0:11:36 > 0:11:39- Sit. Good girl.- That was beautiful.
0:11:39 > 0:11:43After Gabby's star performance, Nellie bounces back.
0:11:43 > 0:11:51Come on, Nellie! There's a good girl. Sit. Nellie, sit.
0:11:51 > 0:11:55Oh, well done. Oh, she really looks pleased with herself.
0:11:55 > 0:11:59It's a good comeback, but Gabby is obviously a clear rival.
0:11:59 > 0:12:02Her owner gives her a pep talk. How will she respond?
0:12:06 > 0:12:09Oh, that was very nice.
0:12:09 > 0:12:10She's a very clever little dog.
0:12:10 > 0:12:14She seems to use her nose really well and she's very enthusiastic.
0:12:14 > 0:12:16Nellie's a little bit too laid back.
0:12:16 > 0:12:19Nellie's proved she can sniff her way to success,
0:12:19 > 0:12:22but she really needs to stay focused on the job at hand
0:12:22 > 0:12:24and not spend so much time in meditation.
0:12:24 > 0:12:28When we stop playing games this afternoon,
0:12:28 > 0:12:30she might think that's more worthwhile.
0:12:30 > 0:12:34For the second part of the training, the class are led outside.
0:12:34 > 0:12:38Nellie must keep her concentration centred on the lesson or her chances
0:12:38 > 0:12:43at the championship and her new job could be whiffed away.
0:12:43 > 0:12:44I think she's going to do OK.
0:12:44 > 0:12:48I think Nellie's, you know, she's got potential,
0:12:48 > 0:12:52but she seems to have to work a lot harder than Gabby naturally does.
0:12:52 > 0:12:53Come on!
0:12:53 > 0:12:57Marion has hidden a truffle somewhere in this two acres of land.
0:12:57 > 0:13:01All the dogs have to do is sniff it out to graduate from truffle school.
0:13:01 > 0:13:03Go, Nellie! Find truffles.
0:13:03 > 0:13:07Can Nellie make a comeback and do it better than teacher's pet Gabby?
0:13:07 > 0:13:10Nellie! Nellie!
0:13:10 > 0:13:14Truffles then. Find truffles.
0:13:14 > 0:13:18Oooh! She misses it completely.
0:13:18 > 0:13:19Nellie.
0:13:19 > 0:13:23It's time to call it quits. Gabby's turn is next.
0:13:28 > 0:13:34Gabby's done it again! Oh, dear, and Nellie is feeling the strain.
0:13:34 > 0:13:36If she's in the competition
0:13:36 > 0:13:40it's going to be very hard to compete against her, yeah.
0:13:44 > 0:13:48Look, there is definitely something fishy going on here.
0:13:48 > 0:13:50They've just handed me a script.
0:13:50 > 0:13:52Listen to what it... Listen. I'm quoting this.
0:13:52 > 0:13:58"Join us on Animals At Work as we go flipping wild under the water
0:13:58 > 0:14:00"and meet a small-scale soccer star."
0:14:00 > 0:14:02A fish that can play football?
0:14:02 > 0:14:04Do you expect me to swallow this hook, line and sinker?
0:14:04 > 0:14:07What position is he gonna play?
0:14:08 > 0:14:09Goalfish.
0:14:13 > 0:14:19And we're off to Pennsylvania to meet an unexpected underwater genius.
0:14:24 > 0:14:27Once upon a time in Gibsonia, a brother and sister had a problem.
0:14:27 > 0:14:29Go fetch, Kendall.
0:14:30 > 0:14:33- No. You go get it.- No. You get it.
0:14:33 > 0:14:35- No. You get it. - No. You have to go get it.
0:14:37 > 0:14:38They had no pet to play with.
0:14:38 > 0:14:41I'm bored. This is kinda...
0:14:44 > 0:14:46- I'm so bored.- So am I.
0:14:48 > 0:14:50- You get it.- No you go get it.
0:14:52 > 0:14:56At home, their father, a computer scientist,
0:14:56 > 0:14:57found a fishy fix to this predicament.
0:15:01 > 0:15:03Hey, Comet, how are you doing today?
0:15:03 > 0:15:07Meet Comet, a two year old common goldfish who's training
0:15:07 > 0:15:11to set a record as the world's smartest fish.
0:15:11 > 0:15:14MUSIC: "Chelsea Dagger" by The Fratellis
0:15:19 > 0:15:23We're planning on entering Comet into the Guinness Book
0:15:23 > 0:15:25for world's smartest fish.
0:15:25 > 0:15:27Hello, my name is Comet.
0:15:27 > 0:15:28What's yours?
0:15:28 > 0:15:32He really is curious and when you come to the tank
0:15:32 > 0:15:35he'll swim up and wiggle his tail.
0:15:35 > 0:15:39Well, Comet likes food and attention I think.
0:15:39 > 0:15:42He's pretty playful.
0:15:53 > 0:15:59The other employee in Coach Comet's fish school is his buddy, Brainiac.
0:15:59 > 0:16:02Hello, I'm Brainiac. Hi, hi.
0:16:02 > 0:16:05We call him Comet's sidekick.
0:16:05 > 0:16:07# Wild thing... #
0:16:10 > 0:16:12Brainiac is really not very smart.
0:16:12 > 0:16:16- Huh?- He looks like he has a big brain, but I think that's all fat.
0:16:16 > 0:16:19- Huh?- He's not as smart as Comet is.
0:16:20 > 0:16:24The chief fish trainer rewards his four-inch employee
0:16:24 > 0:16:26with positive reinforcement,
0:16:26 > 0:16:29which means clever Comet gets food from the training wand
0:16:29 > 0:16:31whenever he completes a trick.
0:16:31 > 0:16:34I've never seen Comet not be able to do a trick.
0:16:34 > 0:16:35Come on, Comet.
0:16:35 > 0:16:38I'm sure if we did a really complicated trick
0:16:38 > 0:16:41it would be really hard for him to learn it, but he probably could.
0:16:41 > 0:16:44Comet will do fetch just like dogs do.
0:16:46 > 0:16:50People don't think that fish have any intelligence whatsoever
0:16:50 > 0:16:54and when you tell them that they can do tricks better than many dogs,
0:16:54 > 0:16:55it just floors them.
0:16:59 > 0:17:03With proper props, sporty Comet can complete nine tricks.
0:17:04 > 0:17:06So the first one is basketball.
0:17:06 > 0:17:08The next trick is the hoop.
0:17:08 > 0:17:10After that is the tunnel,
0:17:10 > 0:17:13the chimney.
0:17:13 > 0:17:15One of the really fun ones is limbo.
0:17:15 > 0:17:17Then there's slalom,
0:17:17 > 0:17:18European football or soccer.
0:17:18 > 0:17:21We have American football
0:17:21 > 0:17:24and my personal favourite
0:17:24 > 0:17:27is actually the ring trick, the fetch trick.
0:17:27 > 0:17:30There has not ever been a fish that I couldn't train
0:17:30 > 0:17:34to do anything, so there are a lot of myths associated with goldfish
0:17:34 > 0:17:37and fish intelligence in general.
0:17:37 > 0:17:41The classic one is that goldfish have only a three-second memory.
0:17:46 > 0:17:49And we've clearly shown through what we've done with Comet
0:17:49 > 0:17:52and our other fish that this is not the case.
0:17:52 > 0:17:56Cunning Comet is training for the title of world's smartest fish
0:17:56 > 0:17:58in the Guinness Book Of Records.
0:17:58 > 0:18:01To win his place, he must complete all nine tricks.
0:18:03 > 0:18:04Here we go, Comet! Good luck!
0:18:04 > 0:18:07Trick number one is basketball.
0:18:09 > 0:18:11Trick number two is hoop.
0:18:14 > 0:18:16Trick number three is tunnel.
0:18:18 > 0:18:20Trick number four is chimney.
0:18:22 > 0:18:25Trick number five is limbo.
0:18:28 > 0:18:33Trick number six is slalom.
0:18:33 > 0:18:35Trick number seven is football.
0:18:37 > 0:18:39Trick number eight is soccer.
0:18:42 > 0:18:46The last trick, trick number nine, is fetch.
0:18:48 > 0:18:50Those are the nine tricks that Comet can do
0:18:50 > 0:18:53and we're pretty proud that he can do them all.
0:18:53 > 0:18:56BOTH: Great job, Comet!
0:19:00 > 0:19:03We've been looking out for your home videos
0:19:03 > 0:19:05of what animals get up to in their spare time.
0:19:05 > 0:19:07Meet Sam, a retired show donkey
0:19:07 > 0:19:09who is still up to his old tricks.
0:19:09 > 0:19:12# Trouble now I'm trouble y'all
0:19:12 > 0:19:13# I got trouble in my town... #
0:19:13 > 0:19:16This is one wonky donkey!
0:19:16 > 0:19:19# Yeah, trouble now I'm trouble y'all
0:19:19 > 0:19:22# I got trouble in my town
0:19:22 > 0:19:26# Trouble, yeah trouble now I'm trouble y'all
0:19:26 > 0:19:28# I got trouble in my town... #
0:19:31 > 0:19:34Onwards to Oregon to meet a model.
0:19:41 > 0:19:45This luscious lumpy babe is supermodel Zelda.
0:19:49 > 0:19:53Her gorgeous face is the heart of an empire worth millions of dollars.
0:19:54 > 0:19:56Zelda is featured on greeting cards,
0:19:56 > 0:20:02collectibles and stationery in her zany outfits to spread positivity.
0:20:02 > 0:20:07She is happy with who she is, and she has turned a disadvantage
0:20:07 > 0:20:11to an advantage which is a great wisdom in and of itself.
0:20:11 > 0:20:16Who would think that, you know, a fat little podgy chick like Zelda
0:20:16 > 0:20:19could become a supermodel?
0:20:19 > 0:20:22She lets us sort of laugh at ourselves
0:20:22 > 0:20:25and feel a little better about not being perfect.
0:20:25 > 0:20:29MUSIC: "Don't Cha" by Cee-Lo, Sir Mix-a-Lot and Busta Rhymes
0:20:29 > 0:20:32Plus-size model Zelda has to keep her figure photo-shoot ready
0:20:32 > 0:20:36because there's always the competition to consider.
0:20:36 > 0:20:39Zelda's weight is a constant concern for us.
0:20:39 > 0:20:42Tomorrow we're starting the swimsuit calendar
0:20:42 > 0:20:44which I'm most excited about.
0:20:44 > 0:20:48I've gone all over and found all sorts of colourful bikinis.
0:20:48 > 0:20:52The only problem that we may have is, will they fit?
0:20:53 > 0:20:56Zelda the multi-millionaire shares her luxurious mansion
0:20:56 > 0:21:00with her agent Carol and another Zelda!
0:21:01 > 0:21:07You're gonna really love this one, baby, cos you get to be Cleopatra.
0:21:07 > 0:21:11When we got Baby, it was as a companion for Zelda.
0:21:11 > 0:21:15And, Zelda, you're Anthony.
0:21:15 > 0:21:19It was also a look-alike because we knew down the road
0:21:19 > 0:21:23that Zelda would retire and so we were looking for a look-alike
0:21:23 > 0:21:24who could be her understudy.
0:21:25 > 0:21:28Come on, come on, Zelda. Will you turn around?
0:21:28 > 0:21:32You're really sort of grumpy, aren't you?
0:21:32 > 0:21:35When we first got Baby Zelda, Zelda was not happy at all
0:21:35 > 0:21:40because Zelda thinks she is the queen,
0:21:40 > 0:21:44Zelda rules and she did not have room in her heart initially
0:21:44 > 0:21:49to share her space with Baby.
0:21:49 > 0:21:53I think in Baby's head she wants to star.
0:21:53 > 0:21:56I can see that in some of the photographs
0:21:56 > 0:21:57where she takes over.
0:21:57 > 0:22:01There's one where they're on a park bench and you can tell
0:22:01 > 0:22:03Zelda was not happy to share the spotlight with Baby,
0:22:03 > 0:22:10and Zelda hunched her shoulders and hunkered down and looked grumpy
0:22:10 > 0:22:13And Baby just was on and she was just like,
0:22:13 > 0:22:17"Whoa! Photograph ME because I want to be the star!"
0:22:17 > 0:22:20Today, Zelda is being featured in a swimsuit shoot.
0:22:20 > 0:22:24Baby is on standby in case the star has any wardrobe malfunctions.
0:22:24 > 0:22:28- You think she'll still fit in that though?- Good question.
0:22:28 > 0:22:31Carol and photographer Shane size up Zelda's suits.
0:22:31 > 0:22:34Come on, Sweetie.
0:22:34 > 0:22:38Luckily, the suit fits! The camera loves this bathing beauty.
0:22:38 > 0:22:41# My style can't be duplicated or recycled
0:22:42 > 0:22:44# Oh! Hah!
0:22:44 > 0:22:48# Let me switch up the game I drink that cognac
0:22:48 > 0:22:51# Step back cos I might put it on ya
0:22:51 > 0:22:54# My curves they swerve so superb My word is my word
0:22:54 > 0:22:55# And I came to serve
0:22:55 > 0:22:58- # We run this, we run this - Run this, run this
0:22:58 > 0:23:00We run this oh, oh... #
0:23:00 > 0:23:04Baby is going to have to wait in the corner just a little longer.
0:23:04 > 0:23:07Zelda is still top model.
0:23:11 > 0:23:14Time for a truffle hunt.
0:23:17 > 0:23:20Nellie the laid back Sussex spaniel has a job to do today.
0:23:20 > 0:23:24She is starting her career as a truffle hunting hound
0:23:24 > 0:23:27in the first ever British Truffle Hunting Championships.
0:23:28 > 0:23:31She's been in training with handler Sophie for two months.
0:23:31 > 0:23:36Today is not only about doing well in the competition,
0:23:36 > 0:23:39but bringing honour to her high-achieving Crufts-winning family.
0:23:39 > 0:23:43Nellie has never been a champion at anything.
0:23:43 > 0:23:47I'm pretty nervous. Nellie's feeling... Well, she's shaking.
0:23:47 > 0:23:52She's the only Sussex spaniel here I think, so that's pretty special.
0:23:52 > 0:23:56Nellie's also representing the Sussex spaniel population of Great Britain.
0:23:56 > 0:23:59If she can pull off a good performance in the championships,
0:23:59 > 0:24:03then she'll have earned the respect of her family as well.
0:24:03 > 0:24:06She's different to all the others cos this isn't like a dog show,
0:24:06 > 0:24:12so she's actually got a job to do - something that's an occupation.
0:24:12 > 0:24:14I think she's had it quite easy until now,
0:24:14 > 0:24:17but I think she's going to be thrown into the deep end.
0:24:17 > 0:24:20Nellie might be the one who has to perform on cue,
0:24:20 > 0:24:23but this is also unknown territory for Sophie.
0:24:23 > 0:24:27I have no idea what's gonna happen. Just go with the flow.
0:24:29 > 0:24:31She's trying to get ahead by sniffing out any rivals.
0:24:38 > 0:24:41Apart from some obvious distractions,
0:24:41 > 0:24:44it's up in the air how Nellie will react in a competition.
0:24:44 > 0:24:49I'm not actually sure how she's gonna do today
0:24:49 > 0:24:51because she's either focused and really wants to do well,
0:24:51 > 0:24:53or she's not doing anything.
0:24:53 > 0:24:56Just "Oh, I can't be bothered to do this."
0:24:56 > 0:24:58It's like an on and off switch. She's either off or on.
0:24:58 > 0:25:02The anxious competitors wait while the course is prepared.
0:25:02 > 0:25:06Three expensive truffles are buried in the ground
0:25:06 > 0:25:08for the hopeful snufflers to find.
0:25:10 > 0:25:12The first contender starts the sniffing.
0:25:20 > 0:25:23Nervous Nellie and Sophie wait for their turn to truffle.
0:25:23 > 0:25:26Next into ring one we have Sophie.
0:25:26 > 0:25:27It's the moment of truth.
0:25:27 > 0:25:29Will Nellie snuffle her way to doggy glory?
0:25:29 > 0:25:32It's time to meet the judge.
0:25:32 > 0:25:35- Do come in. Don't worry, just take your time.- Yeah.
0:25:37 > 0:25:41- The panel start their stopwatches. - Truffles. Nellie.
0:25:42 > 0:25:47Nellie's not in the zone. Sophie is hoping for a very quick turnaround.
0:25:49 > 0:25:51Go, Nellie. Find truffles. You stupid dog!
0:25:51 > 0:25:52Nellie.
0:25:52 > 0:25:56Suddenly Nellie flips on her switch and springs into action,
0:25:56 > 0:25:59scouting the area for the scent of truffles.
0:25:59 > 0:26:02There's no stopping her and she is determined
0:26:02 > 0:26:03to find that elusive odour.
0:26:04 > 0:26:06She found her first truffle!
0:26:08 > 0:26:09Truffles!
0:26:09 > 0:26:10Yes, she's found it. Well done.
0:26:10 > 0:26:13She's indicating that she's found the truffle by sitting.
0:26:13 > 0:26:14- Good girl.- Very nice.
0:26:14 > 0:26:15Onto the next truffle!
0:26:15 > 0:26:16Nellie!
0:26:19 > 0:26:21Nellie has snuffled the second truffle!
0:26:21 > 0:26:25- Good girl!- Excellent find.
0:26:25 > 0:26:28- Very nice handling.- Good girl!
0:26:28 > 0:26:30Time to track the last truffle!
0:26:30 > 0:26:31Truffles! Nellie!
0:26:31 > 0:26:33If Nellie is a successful sniffer,
0:26:33 > 0:26:35she has a chance at the truffle title.
0:26:35 > 0:26:36Nellie has found all three truffles
0:26:36 > 0:26:39in speedy spaniel time!
0:26:39 > 0:26:42Excellent handling. Very calm handling
0:26:42 > 0:26:45and the dog certainly knows her nose work. Beautiful handling.
0:26:45 > 0:26:49She switched on, on her own. Whether you want her to or not
0:26:49 > 0:26:51she'll only switch on if she wants to.
0:26:51 > 0:26:54She seems to switch on at the right moment.
0:26:54 > 0:26:57Nellie pulled all her training out of her hat
0:26:57 > 0:27:00for the competition and is given a very respectable eighth place,
0:27:00 > 0:27:04out of 25 experienced truffle hunting hounds.
0:27:07 > 0:27:11But for Nellie, winning the respect of her family is the real prize.
0:27:11 > 0:27:14She's represented their breed in a national championship
0:27:14 > 0:27:16and come out smelling of success.
0:27:16 > 0:27:18Her future is definitely in truffle hunting
0:27:18 > 0:27:19cos she's a natural at it.
0:27:19 > 0:27:22Congratulations, Nellie!
0:27:22 > 0:27:24You are a truffling snuffling champion!
0:27:24 > 0:27:26Hey, Pepper, I got some more jokes. Listen.
0:27:26 > 0:27:29What dogs are good with children?
0:27:29 > 0:27:30Baby setters.
0:27:32 > 0:27:34That's a really, really good one.
0:27:34 > 0:27:36HE LAUGHS
0:27:37 > 0:27:40Hey, they weren't that bad!
