# Who let the dogs out? #

0:01:120:01:13

Today three trainers and their dogs

0:01:150:01:17

are going to attempt to defy gravity by teaching the high jump.

0:01:170:01:21

Out of hundreds of young trainers

0:01:210:01:23

who applied to be on Who Let The Dogs Out?,

0:01:230:01:25

only 27 were chosen to come here to the Dog House.

0:01:250:01:29

Katie and Twilight, Io and Ernie and Thomas and Ziggy are among those 27.

0:01:290:01:35

Let's see these guys in action.

0:01:350:01:37

At the try-outs dozens of dogs and their trainers were hoping to get

0:01:410:01:44

to the Dog House for a crack at that ultimate prize of Top Dog Trainer.

0:01:440:01:47

The competition was fierce and only the very best would get there.

0:01:470:01:52

Katie and her Labrador, Twilight, were among the chosen few.

0:01:520:01:55

Twilight and me have got a very good bond and we work well together.

0:01:580:02:03

-Look how high this is.

-Over, come on.

-Oh, reward that, reward that.

0:02:030:02:08

Let her know. That was an amazing attempt.

0:02:080:02:11

-She's just the best dog you can ever have.

-She's a superstar.

0:02:110:02:14

Oh, good girl.

0:02:140:02:16

My name is Io and my dog's name's Ernie

0:02:170:02:20

and Ernie is a Hungarian wirehaired Vizsla.

0:02:200:02:23

-Paw.

-Perfect.

0:02:230:02:25

Io and Ernie's try-out didn't go exactly to plan.

0:02:250:02:28

When Ernie went to the toilet on the floor, it just felt so embarrassing.

0:02:280:02:34

Ernie!

0:02:340:02:36

Ernie, I thought you were housetrained!

0:02:360:02:38

But Zak was impressed with Io's determination to succeed.

0:02:390:02:43

There were points which went well. It wasn't all bad.

0:02:430:02:46

-Come on.

-You can do it.

0:02:460:02:47

I'm just going to treat him for the effort because he's gorgeous.

0:02:490:02:52

That was awesome.

0:02:520:02:53

I'm Thomas. I come from Milton Keynes and this is Ziggy.

0:02:550:02:59

Spin. Good boy. Sit.

0:02:590:03:01

-Border collie eyes.

-Say please.

0:03:010:03:02

Hold hands.

0:03:020:03:04

To prepare, we've been doing tricks, we've been practising our agility.

0:03:040:03:07

Very good. And reward him. There you go.

0:03:070:03:11

What went well in our try-out

0:03:110:03:13

was when Ziggy did the jumping.

0:03:130:03:15

He jumped really high and was just confident.

0:03:150:03:17

Very good.

0:03:170:03:18

I hope I can make it into the Dog House but I'm not quite sure.

0:03:180:03:21

Ziggy's a great dog. You're free to go. Thank you.

0:03:210:03:24

# Who let the dogs out? #

0:03:270:03:29

Thomas needn't have worried.

0:03:290:03:31

Zak could tell they made a great team

0:03:310:03:34

and he has a fantastic trick to teach them and the others.

0:03:340:03:38

-How's everyone doing? ALL:

-Good.

0:03:380:03:39

Very, very good.

0:03:390:03:41

Now you guys are going to be learning to teach your dogs the high jump.

0:03:410:03:45

For this trick the dogs will learn to jump over a jump

0:03:460:03:49

without knocking down the pole.

0:03:490:03:51

At show time the bar will get higher and higher.

0:03:510:03:55

The dog that clears the highest bar will be the winner

0:03:550:03:58

and make it into the next round of Who Let The Dogs Out?

0:03:580:04:00

# Who let the dogs out? #

0:04:010:04:03

It's time for the training to begin but something's up with Ziggy.

0:04:040:04:08

I notice Ziggy seems a bit nervous right now.

0:04:080:04:11

-Yeah, he's heard some loud noises and he's really scared.

-OK.

0:04:110:04:15

We usually have to give our dogs a break in a situation like this.

0:04:150:04:18

Why don't you go and take a break, and keep up the good attitude?

0:04:180:04:22

Poor Thomas and Ziggy. Hopefully they can re-join the gang later.

0:04:220:04:25

-Katie, how are we doing?

-Good.

-Let's see what you got. Start with small.

0:04:250:04:29

Twilight's jumping at the try-outs really impressed Zak.

0:04:290:04:32

Over.

0:04:320:04:34

-Good girl.

-Very nice. Easily clears it.

0:04:340:04:36

Had about this much room.

0:04:360:04:38

I'll to put a couple of poles up and see if she can go higher.

0:04:380:04:41

It looks like Twilight's already an expert jumper.

0:04:410:04:44

Go ahead.

0:04:440:04:45

Twilight, over.

0:04:450:04:47

-Good girl.

-Unbelievable. Really, really nice.

0:04:470:04:49

Good girl.

0:04:490:04:51

Wow, they made that look easy.

0:04:510:04:54

She's happy, she's enjoying it

0:04:540:04:56

and that's what having a dog is about.

0:04:560:04:58

And you get that. Very nice.

0:04:580:04:59

All right, Io and Ernie.

0:04:590:05:02

I'm curious to see what we have here.

0:05:020:05:05

-Are you feeling optimistic?

-I'm a bit nervous.

0:05:050:05:08

I remember at try-outs we tried to see how good

0:05:080:05:11

Ernie would be with the high jump.

0:05:110:05:12

He was having no part of it.

0:05:120:05:15

Let's give it a shot. Go ahead.

0:05:150:05:16

Come on, come on, up, up.

0:05:160:05:18

-Good boy!

-Wonderful job. Very good work.

0:05:180:05:21

-Good boy.

-The reason I'm so excited...

0:05:210:05:24

All right, we just saw Twilight clear a pretty significant height.

0:05:240:05:27

Ernie just kind of stepped over it a little bit

0:05:270:05:30

but why am I so excited about this?

0:05:300:05:31

Because for Ernie on this particular trick, that is real progress.

0:05:310:05:35

Well, it's a step in the right direction,

0:05:350:05:37

but will Io and Ernie ever reach the same heady heights

0:05:370:05:40

-as Katie and Twilight?

-OK, you continue to work on one bar.

0:05:400:05:45

Let's see if you can consistently, three times in a row,

0:05:450:05:48

have Twilight jump over those bars, OK?

0:05:480:05:51

So far it looks like Katie and Twilight are the ones to beat.

0:05:510:05:54

Come on, over.

0:05:560:05:58

Good girl.

0:05:580:06:00

# Who let the dogs out? #

0:06:000:06:03

While those guys are hard at work training,

0:06:040:06:06

I'm going to watch some dogs jumping about

0:06:060:06:08

for a completely different reason.

0:06:080:06:10

Hmm. If dogs chose their own Olympic Games, what would they be?

0:06:100:06:15

This is the hammer throw... With a watering can.

0:06:150:06:19

Er, I think you're supposed to let go.

0:06:190:06:21

Gymnastics. Oh, yes.

0:06:210:06:25

Football. Of course. Great dribbling skills, look.

0:06:250:06:28

But you are supposed to use your feet.

0:06:280:06:30

That's why it's called FOOTball.

0:06:300:06:33

This dog's taking a penalty kick.

0:06:330:06:36

Look, he's trying to fool the keeper by having such a terrible football.

0:06:360:06:39

Potholing is very popular. But you have to dig your own hole.

0:06:390:06:43

You'll never get in there.

0:06:430:06:44

Told you.

0:06:440:06:46

Oh, look, the dog luge. Oh, yeah.

0:06:460:06:49

And rugby, Canadian style. Oh, yes.

0:06:510:06:54

Only one player per match.

0:06:540:06:56

Everyone's a winner.

0:06:560:06:57

Surfing with ducks is very popular in the canine world.

0:06:590:07:03

But the Olympic hairstyle says it all.

0:07:030:07:08

# Who let the dog out? #

0:07:080:07:09

Still to come... Zak's new trick.

0:07:110:07:14

And the bar is raised when the teams battle to reach the quarterfinals.

0:07:140:07:18

# Who let the dogs out? #

0:07:180:07:19

Good girl!

0:07:220:07:24

HE LAUGHS

0:07:240:07:25

Training's in full flow,

0:07:250:07:26

but it looks like Thomas is still worried about poor Ziggy.

0:07:260:07:31

-Er, Ziggy is over in a different area trying to calm down.

-OK.

0:07:310:07:35

He's relaxing but he's still really nervous. He's still shaking.

0:07:350:07:39

It'll be interesting to see if he's interested in training later on.

0:07:390:07:43

-But if he's not, we never push them.

-Yeah.

0:07:430:07:45

Dogs have to want to do it. That is the golden rule of dog training.

0:07:450:07:49

Keep up the good work. Love your attitude.

0:07:490:07:51

While Thomas heads off to take care of Ziggy,

0:07:510:07:53

Zak notices that Ernie's beginning to lose interest in the high jump.

0:07:530:07:58

I want to see if you can really, really get Ernie's energy up.

0:07:580:08:02

Do whatever you have to do. If you've got to act ridiculous, do it.

0:08:020:08:05

-Know what I mean?

-Yeah.

-You smile because you're good at it.

0:08:050:08:08

SHE GIGGLES

0:08:080:08:09

Who's a good boy?

0:08:090:08:11

Watch that tail - we're looking for that,

0:08:110:08:12

that's our thermometer here, to see...

0:08:120:08:14

-There we go! Look at him, he's playing.

-Here we go!

0:08:140:08:18

Whoo! Yes!

0:08:180:08:21

That's a play bark. You can tell by his body language he's happy.

0:08:210:08:24

-Come on, up, up.

-Yeah, good dog!

-Yeah, good dog!

-Very nice.

0:08:240:08:29

Come on, let's go! Yeah! That's mega-good. Keep it going.

0:08:290:08:34

Wow, it's working!

0:08:340:08:36

Yes, three in a row! Very good.

0:08:360:08:40

Io's going to need a lie down after all this.

0:08:400:08:43

-Come on, let's go.

-Come on!

0:08:430:08:45

-Arrrrgh!

-Come on!

0:08:450:08:48

-And so's Zak!

-What's this?

0:08:480:08:50

-Come on. Come on, Ernie,

-Oh!

-Let him know you love it.

0:08:500:08:55

Even tiring for me.

0:08:550:08:57

Oh, where's he gone?

0:08:570:09:00

That's what it takes.

0:09:000:09:01

You've got to act silly, but you've got to reach deep.

0:09:010:09:04

Your dog has to know you're willing to play

0:09:040:09:06

before they're willing to play sometimes.

0:09:060:09:08

OK, Katie and Twilight, I see we've already got five bars,

0:09:080:09:11

so we're going for six bars now.

0:09:110:09:13

Six?! Don't let Ernie see that.

0:09:130:09:15

-In your own time, whenever you're ready.

-Ready, ready, ready?

0:09:150:09:18

-Go! Good girl.

-Oh, wow, very good. A little tougher.

0:09:180:09:24

We always want to make sure we end a training session on a high note,

0:09:240:09:27

especially training like this right now,

0:09:270:09:29

and I think that's really good for you.

0:09:290:09:32

SHE LAUGHS

0:09:320:09:34

Ernie! Aw, I love you, boy.

0:09:340:09:38

All right, guys, you have one week to really get this nailed.

0:09:380:09:41

So keep it fun, and we'll see you back here. All right? Bye.

0:09:410:09:45

-Bye!

-Bye!

0:09:450:09:46

The teams have plenty of work before they return next week.

0:09:460:09:50

Come on. What's this? What's this?

0:09:500:09:52

And for Thomas and Ziggy, there's some serious catching up to do.

0:09:540:09:58

I was a little disappointed

0:09:580:10:00

that we weren't able to do more in the training session,

0:10:000:10:03

but as long as Zig's happy, that's the main thing to me.

0:10:030:10:06

Went really well today.

0:10:060:10:08

Twilight is a very good jumper, very strong muscles.

0:10:080:10:12

We're really pleased with the trick we got. We have an advantage now.

0:10:120:10:16

He was quite rubbish at the start, but then Ernie improved a lot more.

0:10:160:10:21

He jumped in the end and that's a good thing, a sign of improvement.

0:10:210:10:25

I've got confidence. Ernie's going to do it, I know it.

0:10:250:10:28

Oh, all right then, boy.

0:10:280:10:30

Twilight, Ernie and Ziggy are three really unique dogs.

0:10:300:10:34

Let's see what makes them special in their own way.

0:10:340:10:37

First up, we've got two-year-old Twilight, the Labrador retriever.

0:10:380:10:42

She loves dancing and playing hide-and-seek.

0:10:420:10:44

Labrador retrievers are usually very active dogs

0:10:440:10:47

that love to jump about

0:10:470:10:50

and this could give Twilight a real advantage.

0:10:500:10:52

Ernie is a three-year-old, Hungarian wirehaired vizsla.

0:10:520:10:55

He loves gravy bones and swimming

0:10:550:10:58

pretty handy, really,

0:10:580:11:00

cos his breed have waterproof coats!

0:11:000:11:02

Vizslas are usually very energetic,

0:11:020:11:05

but Ernie loves sleeping in front of the fire!

0:11:050:11:08

Last, but not least, is Ziggy, a two-year-old Border collie,

0:11:080:11:12

who, true to his breed, is super-smart,

0:11:120:11:15

loves playing and NEVER gets tired.

0:11:150:11:17

Ziggy is scared of loud noises, though,

0:11:170:11:20

but will he put his fears to one side

0:11:200:11:22

to concentrate on this high-flying stunt? Hmm...

0:11:220:11:26

# Who let the dogs out? #

0:11:260:11:29

Show time is just one week away,

0:11:330:11:34

and with a place in the quarter-finals at stake,

0:11:340:11:36

everyone's giving it their all.

0:11:360:11:38

The teams have returned, and Zak wants to make sure

0:11:380:11:41

that Thomas and Ziggy have a chance to catch up

0:11:410:11:44

on the training they missed last time around.

0:11:440:11:47

Hey, guys! How's everyone doing?

0:11:470:11:48

-ALL:

-Good.

0:11:480:11:50

Really good! High-jumping is looking fantastic here.

0:11:500:11:53

Why don't you two take a break, I'll work with Thomas and Ziggy.

0:11:530:11:56

Nice work, cos...

0:11:580:11:59

That's OK, that's OK.

0:11:590:12:01

Tell me how you feel training has gone,

0:12:010:12:04

-because last time you had some issues.

-We did.

0:12:040:12:06

And then, in practice, how did that go after he left here?

0:12:060:12:09

It went really well, actually.

0:12:090:12:11

We got him back and he jumped, like, five or six poles,

0:12:110:12:14

which was going really well.

0:12:140:12:16

Yes! Good boy.

0:12:160:12:17

-Let's go up a bit here.

-OK.

0:12:170:12:19

I can tell you straight off the bat, Thomas, where you need to improve,

0:12:190:12:22

because you've got an amazing dog -

0:12:220:12:24

and you are doing terrific, by the way.

0:12:240:12:26

You've got to amp up your energy, make this a game.

0:12:260:12:29

-Does your dog play tug-of-war?

-Yes, he does.

0:12:290:12:32

-Grab that tug toy over there.

-What's this? Come on.

0:12:320:12:35

Look at how your dog just lit up right now.

0:12:350:12:37

Get him amped up with the tug toy. Good.

0:12:370:12:40

And then send him over, run with him, show him some energy, keep it happy.

0:12:400:12:44

-Easily clears it, reward your dog with a tug toy right there.

-Good boy!

0:12:440:12:47

Fantastic job!

0:12:470:12:49

Wow! Looks like Thomas and Ziggy are right back in the game.

0:12:490:12:54

I wonder how Katie and Twilight are doing.

0:12:540:12:56

I would say, if she clears this I would be just amazed.

0:12:560:12:59

Good girl.

0:12:590:13:02

We only had six last week and now we have nine - maybe. We'll see.

0:13:020:13:05

Over! Over! Good girl.

0:13:050:13:07

Whoa! Unbelievable! Did you see that, guys?

0:13:070:13:09

Wo-ow-ow!

0:13:090:13:11

We've got ourselves a competition right here.

0:13:110:13:13

Katie and Twilight are still the firm favourites.

0:13:130:13:16

Do Io and Ernie have any chance of catching up?

0:13:160:13:20

He's doing, like, six or seven now,

0:13:200:13:21

-compared to the two he was doing last time.

-No way.

0:13:210:13:25

-Yes, way!

-Are you serious?! Really, seven?

0:13:250:13:28

-Yep.

-Let's see if we can get three here though, Io.

0:13:280:13:31

Ernie, come here. Sit.

0:13:310:13:34

Six or seven? Could that be true?

0:13:340:13:36

Come! Over!

0:13:360:13:37

Easily clears it - by a substantial margin.

0:13:390:13:41

Do you know, you might be right.

0:13:410:13:43

Let me grab some more bars. Ready to try this again?

0:13:430:13:45

-Go ahead and get back in position.

-Stay.

0:13:450:13:48

OK, that's seven.

0:13:480:13:50

All right.

0:13:500:13:51

-Stay.

-I mean, look at how high this is.

0:13:510:13:54

-Come, over!

-Good luck, Ernie.

0:13:540:13:56

Unbelievable!

0:13:580:14:00

Wow! Are we seeing the same dog?

0:14:000:14:02

I mean, this is probably the most dramatic improvement

0:14:020:14:05

I can remember seeing in a one-week time frame

0:14:050:14:09

-on a trick on this show, ever.

-Ernie has just become a contender.

0:14:090:14:13

I just wish someone would ask Io

0:14:130:14:15

how she got such a massive improvement out of Ernie...

0:14:150:14:17

Io, how did you get such a massive improvement out of Ernie?

0:14:170:14:22

Thanks, Zak!

0:14:220:14:23

Well, I brought up a new tactic of getting him to sit with a run-up.

0:14:230:14:28

I'm at the other side, and I tell him, "Ernie, come! Over!"

0:14:280:14:33

And then he just comes over and jumps easily.

0:14:330:14:36

Really, really good work so far.

0:14:360:14:38

All right, guys, you have one more week to practise with this.

0:14:380:14:41

Just keep up the good work, I'm really proud of you.

0:14:410:14:44

-All right, why don't you get back to training? Bye, guys! ALL:

-Bye!

0:14:440:14:48

High-jumping isn't just jumping over a bar, you know.

0:14:480:14:50

There's real skill in this trick.

0:14:500:14:52

Here are Zak's five steps to successful high-jumping.

0:14:520:14:56

1 - start low and encourage your dog over the jump using a treat.

0:14:570:15:03

2 - use a running start to help your dog clear the jump more easily.

0:15:030:15:07

3 - gradually raise the bar to find a jump your dog can clear every time

0:15:070:15:15

4 - If your dog doesn't make the jump,

0:15:150:15:18

lower the bar one level and try again.

0:15:180:15:21

5 - keep up the energy. Make it fun

0:15:210:15:24

and your dog will soon be jumping for joy.

0:15:240:15:27

I think me and Ziggy are really serious contenders

0:15:270:15:30

to get through to the next round.

0:15:300:15:32

Our only competition will be Twilight,

0:15:320:15:34

because they're just so good.

0:15:340:15:36

For the finale, I'm a bit worried because now

0:15:360:15:40

seeing Ziggy, he's very confident and at ease doing them at height.

0:15:400:15:45

Ernie's improved massively since last week.

0:15:450:15:47

He's like a shooting star or something now,

0:15:470:15:49

but I've still got a bit of competition with Ziggy and Twilight.

0:15:490:15:54

We teach our dogs tricks because they're fun, they're cool

0:15:590:16:02

and sometimes they are downright incredible.

0:16:020:16:04

But remember, the real reason we teach them

0:16:040:16:07

is because it brings us closer together.

0:16:070:16:09

Come on in, Nellie!

0:16:090:16:10

Hey, girl. How are you today? You look stunning.

0:16:120:16:16

Today, I'll show you how to teach your dog to walk backwards.

0:16:160:16:19

All right, girl. So stand in front of me.

0:16:190:16:21

I'm going to lure her over here. Very good, Nellie.

0:16:210:16:24

With the treat, I encourage her to walk backwards.

0:16:240:16:27

No, that's cute, but not what I'm looking for.

0:16:270:16:29

By the way, that's completely normal.

0:16:290:16:32

Our dogs will often say, "What do I already know that gets me a treat?"

0:16:320:16:35

Don't be discouraged. They're just thinking.

0:16:350:16:37

No, not lie down. Come here. Come on, Nellie. Good!

0:16:370:16:40

Let's back up. Yes, good! Very good!

0:16:400:16:42

She took one step back right there

0:16:420:16:44

and I want to let her know that's fantastic.

0:16:440:16:46

You're on the right track. Come here.

0:16:460:16:48

This way forwards. Good.

0:16:480:16:50

Now, let's see if we can get her to walk backwards. Oh, look at her go!

0:16:500:16:53

Fantastic, Nellie. Over here.

0:16:530:16:56

Very good. Ready? Let's try it. Back up, back up, back up!

0:16:560:16:59

Wow, she has really taken to this one good.

0:16:590:17:02

All right, Nellie, here we go. Ready? Back up, back up, back up.

0:17:020:17:06

Oh, you are looking fantastic. Forward, forward, forward.

0:17:060:17:10

Teach your dog to back up today. It's a lot of fun. Good girl, Nellie.

0:17:100:17:15

# Who let the dogs out? #

0:17:150:17:17

It might be hard work training dogs,

0:17:190:17:21

but our dogs do seem to love it.

0:17:210:17:24

In fact, even dogs with real jobs seem to love what they do.

0:17:240:17:28

This is a sheepdog. Sheepdogs are always black and white, right?

0:17:310:17:35

Wrong! No! There are actually more than 70 different herding breeds

0:17:350:17:40

all over the world.

0:17:400:17:42

Tall ones, skinny ones, and even shaggy ones like this.

0:17:420:17:47

Now, this sheepdog thinks he has his work cut out,

0:17:470:17:50

herding seven sheep.

0:17:500:17:52

But try herding 8,000!

0:17:520:17:54

In Australia, sheep farms can be massive

0:17:540:17:57

and farmers need a very special sheepdog.

0:17:570:18:00

Introducing the Australian kelpie.

0:18:000:18:03

These guys are like the superheroes of the sheepdog world.

0:18:030:18:06

Check this out. That's one way to get to the front of the queue!

0:18:060:18:10

It's called backing.

0:18:100:18:12

The main purpose of going over their backs is to get to the front

0:18:120:18:15

of the mob. That's where they naturally want to be.

0:18:150:18:18

Dogs will back naturally. It's something that's in them.

0:18:180:18:21

They'll automatically want to get up on top and bark

0:18:210:18:25

and travel to the front, over the top.

0:18:250:18:27

Time for a break and a cool bath. Then it's back to work.

0:18:270:18:31

8,000 sheep won't herd themselves, you know!

0:18:310:18:34

# Who let the dogs out? #

0:18:370:18:39

Two weeks' intensive training is over

0:18:400:18:42

and it's time for our three trainers to battle it out

0:18:420:18:45

for a place in the quarterfinals.

0:18:450:18:47

The stakes are high and with just one place up for grabs,

0:18:530:18:56

nothing is guaranteed.

0:18:560:18:58

Training at home this week went OK

0:18:580:19:01

up until about Wednesday.

0:19:010:19:04

But then she's getting bored of it now.

0:19:040:19:07

It could go either way, so we'll just hope for the best.

0:19:070:19:09

Who will keep their focus?

0:19:090:19:12

I'm quietly confident we can get through to the next round.

0:19:120:19:15

Even though there is stiff competition,

0:19:150:19:17

we've done really well over the past two weeks.

0:19:170:19:20

Who will jump their way into the quarterfinal?

0:19:200:19:22

If I got through to the next round with Ernie,

0:19:220:19:25

I'd be over the moon

0:19:250:19:27

because Ernie is unpredictable

0:19:270:19:29

and no-one will really expect him to get through.

0:19:290:19:32

It's time to find out.

0:19:340:19:35

# Who let the dogs out? #

0:19:370:19:38

It's show time and our high-jumping dogs are on standby,

0:19:410:19:45

ready to leap into action.

0:19:450:19:46

Now this is the high jump and once all three dogs have cleared

0:19:460:19:49

the bar, we are going to raise it higher and higher.

0:19:490:19:52

Now if a dog knocks down the bar,

0:19:520:19:54

they will have two more chances to clear it.

0:19:540:19:56

So if they clear it on their second or third attempt,

0:19:560:19:59

they stay in the competition.

0:19:590:20:00

If they don't clear it after three attempts?

0:20:000:20:02

Well, they are out of the competition.

0:20:020:20:04

The winner will of course be the dog that clears the highest jump

0:20:040:20:08

and only they will move on to the quarterfinals.

0:20:080:20:11

Let's get those high-jumpers out here.

0:20:110:20:13

Katie and Twilight have been almost unstoppable since training began,

0:20:140:20:18

but now Katie's worried that Twilight could be losing interest.

0:20:180:20:21

Have they peaked too soon?

0:20:210:20:24

The bar is set at 60cm,

0:20:240:20:26

but what will Katie use to encourage Twilight over the jump.

0:20:260:20:29

The Frisbee? The ball? No, it's food.

0:20:290:20:33

Easily clearing it. Wonderful job! Thomas and Ziggy, come on.

0:20:330:20:37

It was a disastrous start for Thomas and Ziggy

0:20:370:20:40

when they missed the first day of training.

0:20:400:20:43

But they've come back stronger and are serious contenders

0:20:430:20:45

for that quarterfinal spot.

0:20:450:20:48

No food for Ziggy, but he knows that that squeaky red bone

0:20:490:20:54

is all his if he can clear that bar.

0:20:540:20:56

Incredible focus. He made it over there. This is very impressive.

0:20:560:20:59

Io and Ernie, come on out here. Show me what you got.

0:20:590:21:03

The clear underdogs in the competition,

0:21:030:21:06

Io and Ernie, took a while to get going.

0:21:060:21:09

But once Ernie found his groove, there was no stopping him.

0:21:090:21:13

Do they have one more surprise, when it really matters?

0:21:130:21:17

Stay.

0:21:170:21:18

-Come! Over!

-Wow!

0:21:200:21:22

Excellent job, Ernie. Fantastic work.

0:21:220:21:25

All three dogs made THAT look like a walk in the park!

0:21:250:21:29

Time to get serious.

0:21:290:21:31

The bar goes up to 80cm

0:21:310:21:33

and Katie's now using a tennis ball to encourage Twilight over the jump.

0:21:330:21:37

Clever stuff. That way Twilight won't get bored.

0:21:370:21:41

Wow!

0:21:410:21:43

And in slow motion too! Clever dog.

0:21:430:21:47

-Oh, my goodness!

-Come on! Good girl!

0:21:470:21:50

Can Ziggy keep the contest alive by matching Twilight's effort?

0:21:500:21:54

OK.

0:21:540:21:56

Yes, he can!

0:21:580:22:00

Oh, my goodness! Ziggy, looking amazing!

0:22:000:22:04

Stay.

0:22:040:22:06

Come on, Ernie. You can do this.

0:22:060:22:08

Come! Over!

0:22:080:22:09

And that is our first knock down.

0:22:140:22:16

Don't worry, you've still got two attempts left.

0:22:160:22:19

And Io's going for a longer run-up this time.

0:22:190:22:22

Come! Over!

0:22:220:22:24

Ooh!

0:22:250:22:27

Stay.

0:22:270:22:28

Could this be Ernie's last leap?

0:22:280:22:31

Io's looking nervous.

0:22:310:22:33

Come! Over!

0:22:330:22:36

Come on!

0:22:360:22:37

Oh, just missed!

0:22:390:22:41

-Ooh!

-That's OK.

0:22:410:22:42

You guys have nothing to be ashamed of, Io.

0:22:420:22:45

You did incredible. Think about how far you came.

0:22:450:22:47

-You did amazing. Go and take your seat. Nice work.

-Come on, boy.

0:22:470:22:51

It might be all over for Io and Ernie,

0:22:510:22:53

but for the others, the contest is just getting started.

0:22:530:22:57

When both dogs clear 100cm, Zak has to build a bigger jump.

0:22:570:23:03

For Thomas and Ziggy, it's another easy clearance.

0:23:030:23:08

-Good boy!

-You've got to be kidding me!

0:23:080:23:10

For Katie and Twilight, disaster strikes.

0:23:100:23:15

That is your first knock down. You have two more attempts at this.

0:23:150:23:18

Could Twilight be losing interest, just as Katie feared?

0:23:180:23:23

O-ho! 110cm, unbelievable!

0:23:250:23:31

The bar is raised to 120cm.

0:23:320:23:34

That's nearly as tall as Zak!

0:23:340:23:37

My heart is racing right now.

0:23:380:23:40

Go, go, go! Come on, come on!

0:23:400:23:42

Wow!

0:23:420:23:45

Good girl! Oh, well done!

0:23:450:23:47

Well done, Twilight.

0:23:470:23:49

I am in disbelief. I cannot believe

0:23:490:23:51

you guys have gotten this high, this quickly.

0:23:510:23:53

Neither can Thomas. The competition is definitely on for him.

0:23:530:23:57

Wait. Wait.

0:23:570:24:01

OK!

0:24:010:24:02

That is Thomas and Ziggy's first knock down. Two more attempts.

0:24:040:24:08

Wait.

0:24:080:24:10

Wait. OK!

0:24:100:24:13

-Yes! Good boy!

-What?! You've got to be kidding me!

0:24:170:24:20

Did you see that extra effort that Ziggy made

0:24:200:24:23

to get over the bar? Incredible!

0:24:230:24:25

The bar goes up again, this time to 130cm.

0:24:250:24:30

Come on, Twilight!

0:24:300:24:32

If you can do this, you deserve free treats for life.

0:24:320:24:35

Knocking down two bars. That's OK, though.

0:24:370:24:39

It's all about timing on this one.

0:24:390:24:41

Katie's looking really focused for this second attempt.

0:24:430:24:46

Come on, come on!

0:24:460:24:48

Come on, over!

0:24:480:24:51

-That's all right. This is really challenging.

-Good girl.

0:24:510:24:54

If Twilight misses this time, it's over to Thomas and Ziggy.

0:24:540:24:58

Come on, come on!

0:24:580:25:00

Oh, so close!

0:25:010:25:04

-Oh, much better! Much better. Still knocks it down.

-Well done!

0:25:040:25:08

It looks like Twilight has finally reached her limit

0:25:080:25:10

and for Thomas and Ziggy, it's the same story.

0:25:100:25:14

When Ziggy also fails to clear the bar in three attempts...

0:25:140:25:17

So close! He tried so hard on that.

0:25:170:25:19

..it's all square. But Zak has to find a winner.

0:25:190:25:24

We have a tie today.

0:25:240:25:25

So we're going to have to go into our tie-break scenario.

0:25:250:25:28

Ooh, nail-biting time!

0:25:280:25:31

The bar's lowered to 120cm once more

0:25:310:25:35

and now it's sudden death.

0:25:350:25:37

If Katie and Twilight fail to clear the bar,

0:25:370:25:41

Thomas and Ziggy could steal it.

0:25:410:25:42

-You cleared 120cm, you are still alive in the competition.

-Good girl!

0:25:460:25:49

Thomas and Ziggy, get up here. Let's see what you can do.

0:25:490:25:54

This is it. If Ziggy clears the bar,

0:25:540:25:57

both teams will go again.

0:25:570:25:59

If he fails, they're out

0:25:590:26:01

and that quarterfinal place will go to Katie and Twilight.

0:26:010:26:04

Here he comes.

0:26:060:26:08

But what's he doing?

0:26:080:26:09

He's refused the jump

0:26:090:26:11

and Katie and Twilight have just been handed the victory.

0:26:110:26:14

Wow, a shocker right at the finish.

0:26:140:26:18

You put up a great fight. Be very proud of Ziggy.

0:26:180:26:20

Show him some love over here.

0:26:200:26:22

# Who let the dogs out? #

0:26:220:26:25

What a thrilling, exciting competition we had here.

0:26:270:26:31

It came down to a tie-breaker today.

0:26:310:26:33

All of you had such dramatic improvement.

0:26:330:26:35

Obviously, our winner is Katie and Twilight.

0:26:350:26:39

You will advance to the next round

0:26:390:26:41

and you are so right to be excited. Tell me how you feel about this.

0:26:410:26:44

Amazing, because I think she's really worked for it

0:26:440:26:47

and I think everybody here would be worthy.

0:26:470:26:49

But on the day, it's just how they go, isn't it?

0:26:490:26:52

I'm happy with each and every one of you. Give your dogs some love.

0:26:520:26:56

-Let them know what a great job they did.

-Good girl! Well done!

0:26:560:26:58

Who's the best doggie?

0:26:580:27:00

So Katie and Twilight will move on to the quarterfinals.

0:27:000:27:03

Next time, three more trainers and their dogs will compete

0:27:030:27:06

for their spot in the quarterfinals with another amazing stunt.

0:27:060:27:10

Don't miss it!

Next time, James and Delta, Isaac and Barney,

0:27:130:27:16

and Jake and Ice get set

0:27:160:27:17

some sporty shenanigans

that will test their dogs to the limit.

Very, very good!

So watch it, you!

Being on Who Let The Dogs Out, I've bonded more with Ernie

0:27:270:27:30

and now I have more confidence to teach him new tricks.

0:27:300:27:33

Obviously I'm disappointed, because we had such a great experience.

0:27:330:27:37

But we tried our best and we're going to leave

0:27:370:27:39

with our heads held high.

0:27:390:27:41

I'm really proud of Twilight.

0:27:410:27:43

Really excited that we won the show time

0:27:430:27:46

and I can't wait till the quarterfinals.
