0:01:10 > 0:01:14And three new teams take the plunge for a place in the quarterfinals.
0:01:14 > 0:01:16# Who let the dogs out? #
0:01:18 > 0:01:20We searched the country far and wide
0:01:20 > 0:01:22for the best young dog-trainers in the UK
0:01:22 > 0:01:25and invited them here to the Dog House
0:01:25 > 0:01:29to compete for the title of Who Let The Dogs Out Top Dog Trainer.
0:01:29 > 0:01:30Today Charlotte and Harry,
0:01:30 > 0:01:32Jasmine and Angus
0:01:32 > 0:01:34and Jessica and Tilly
0:01:34 > 0:01:37are diving straight into a very exciting challenge.
0:01:37 > 0:01:40Let's find out why they made it into the Dog House.
0:01:47 > 0:01:49At the try-outs dozens of dogs and their trainers
0:01:49 > 0:01:51were hoping to get to the Dog House,
0:01:51 > 0:01:54and get their paws on the ultimate prize - the Top Dog Trainer Trophy.
0:01:56 > 0:01:57Competition was fierce,
0:01:57 > 0:02:00and Zak was on the lookout for three dogs with a love of water
0:02:00 > 0:02:02and bags of energy.
0:02:02 > 0:02:05My name's Charlotte and this is Harry. He is a Labrador retriever.
0:02:07 > 0:02:09Oh, wow! Right back, and pretty accurate.
0:02:09 > 0:02:16I think Harry is very intelligent, and he learns stuff REALLY quickly.
0:02:17 > 0:02:20Harry, c'mon, get that ball!
0:02:20 > 0:02:23That's it, good dog, go on!
0:02:23 > 0:02:24To me he's the best dog in the world.
0:02:24 > 0:02:29Harry's exceptional, Charlotte. You've done a very good job.
0:02:30 > 0:02:31Wow!
0:02:31 > 0:02:33I'm Jas and this is Angus.
0:02:33 > 0:02:34And I come from Plymouth.
0:02:34 > 0:02:36- Sit! - ANGUS BARKS
0:02:36 > 0:02:41- No, that's "lie down", isn't it? Come on, you!- I like your attitude.
0:02:41 > 0:02:48Angus is a briard. His personality is cheeky, mischievous and clumsy.
0:02:48 > 0:02:53- Will he bring it back?- No. Angus was pretty well-behaved for him.
0:02:56 > 0:02:59If I get into the Dog House I would feel so proud of him
0:02:59 > 0:03:02and quite proud of myself.
0:03:02 > 0:03:05He's great. You're lucky to have him and he's lucky to have you.
0:03:07 > 0:03:11My name's Jessica and my dog's name is Tilly. She's a Labradoodle.
0:03:12 > 0:03:14Nice. I like the way you're interacting.
0:03:14 > 0:03:17Tilly just likes to be the centre of attention.
0:03:17 > 0:03:20- Very good. - Good girl!
0:03:20 > 0:03:24I think Zak was impressed with Tilly because she was always happy.
0:03:24 > 0:03:28And she did her tricks and bounced around.
0:03:28 > 0:03:31Do you see the laughter here? It just feels good!
0:03:31 > 0:03:34And the better training feels, the better training is.
0:03:34 > 0:03:37I think she did the best she can, so I'm really pleased with her.
0:03:37 > 0:03:38- Yes! - Good girl!
0:03:40 > 0:03:42# Who let the dogs out? #
0:03:42 > 0:03:45Three very different dogs have made it to the Dog House -
0:03:45 > 0:03:49will Zak's stunt put a smile on the hairy faces?
0:03:50 > 0:03:52Today's event is a Who Let The Dogs Out classic!
0:03:52 > 0:03:56Jasmine and Angus, Charlotte and Harry and Jessica and Tilly
0:03:56 > 0:03:59are going to be teaching their dogs dock diving.
0:03:59 > 0:04:01This in an incredibly difficult stunt
0:04:01 > 0:04:03that requires dogs with a love of fetch and water,
0:04:03 > 0:04:06and, of course, nerves of steel.
0:04:07 > 0:04:09Wow! Look at these dogs!
0:04:09 > 0:04:13Angus! Such a big boy! Let me hold onto you.
0:04:13 > 0:04:14How are you guys doing?
0:04:14 > 0:04:15Fine, thank you.
0:04:15 > 0:04:18I am so excited about our stunt.
0:04:18 > 0:04:22It'll be interesting to see a wet dog like this one!
0:04:22 > 0:04:25Now, do you have any idea what we might be teaching today?
0:04:25 > 0:04:28- Erm, dock diving?- Exactly right!
0:04:29 > 0:04:33So popular last series, we thought we'd bring it back,
0:04:33 > 0:04:36the aim is for the dogs to jump into the lake as far as they can
0:04:36 > 0:04:39from the edge of either the low or high dock.
0:04:39 > 0:04:42At showtime, the dog that jumps the furthest will win.
0:04:42 > 0:04:45# Who let the dogs out? #
0:04:45 > 0:04:50Training day one, and the weather's a bit soggy for Jasmine and Angus.
0:04:50 > 0:04:53- I want you to play fetch.- All right. - You think he's good off leash?- Yeah.
0:04:53 > 0:04:56This will be like playing fetch with a Shetland pony!
0:04:56 > 0:04:58- Look what I got, Angus!- Oooh!
0:05:00 > 0:05:03Hey, come here, Angus - look! Check it out! Go!
0:05:04 > 0:05:07Yes! Go get it!
0:05:07 > 0:05:10He's not too sure about going into the water just yet.
0:05:10 > 0:05:14OK. What's this? Get it.
0:05:14 > 0:05:16So close!
0:05:18 > 0:05:22I think Angus would rather play fetch on land than go in water.
0:05:22 > 0:05:25What we're doing is encouraging him to get into the water.
0:05:25 > 0:05:27We've got him in play mode - where we want him -
0:05:27 > 0:05:31but we've got to make the water fun to encourage him in.
0:05:32 > 0:05:35He's gone from play mode to cheeky mode!
0:05:35 > 0:05:37- Uh-oh!- Angus...! - JASMINE LAUGHS
0:05:37 > 0:05:41- Angus, come in. - Angus, c'mon, buddy! You try it now.
0:05:41 > 0:05:45- Go!- Get it, go! Get in there!
0:05:45 > 0:05:49Yeah! Good boy! Yeah!
0:05:49 > 0:05:52That's fantastic. Great work, Angus! Well done!
0:05:52 > 0:05:54Rock and roll, baby! We got him in the water.
0:05:54 > 0:05:58Making it to the Dog House feels absolutely amazing.
0:05:58 > 0:06:02I never thought we'd get here. Yeah, it's really special.
0:06:02 > 0:06:05Looks like Jessica and Tilly are ready to have fun.
0:06:05 > 0:06:09Jessica and Tilly, good to have you here.
0:06:09 > 0:06:12You're one of the happiest people I've ever seen - always smiling.
0:06:12 > 0:06:16Tilly's so keen to get started, she's helped herself to a ball!
0:06:16 > 0:06:17So she likes it!
0:06:17 > 0:06:20Our goal is to get her comfortable going into the water.
0:06:20 > 0:06:25- And if she does that, what will we do?- Reward her with another throw.
0:06:25 > 0:06:28Exactly. NOT a treat, right?
0:06:28 > 0:06:30So, let's see. Come on! Get it.
0:06:30 > 0:06:31Go get it.
0:06:31 > 0:06:35Go on, Tilly! Go on. Good girl. Go on, Tilly!
0:06:35 > 0:06:39- She's exploring it... Let her know you like that.- Good girl!
0:06:39 > 0:06:41Where's your ball, Tilly?
0:06:41 > 0:06:43- Good girl!- She did it!
0:06:43 > 0:06:47- Look at her go! She did it! She's swimming and enjoying it.- Good girl!
0:06:47 > 0:06:50A perfect example of the doggy paddle. Lovely swimming.
0:06:50 > 0:06:52So exciting! Good job!
0:06:52 > 0:06:55She looks really confident and raring to go again!
0:06:55 > 0:06:57This is looking good.
0:06:57 > 0:07:00Once they're comfortable getting in the water, they'll do it again.
0:07:00 > 0:07:03Where's your ball, Tilly? Where's your ball?
0:07:03 > 0:07:05- Good girl! - It's kind of like warming up.
0:07:05 > 0:07:08Once you get comfortable with the environment...
0:07:08 > 0:07:10Really, really good job!
0:07:10 > 0:07:15Wow, this really is a great start for Jessica and Tilly.
0:07:15 > 0:07:19I'm really pleased because I know Tilly loves dock diving.
0:07:19 > 0:07:22I think Tilly will get the hang of it.
0:07:22 > 0:07:24Nice work! See? Third time's a charm!
0:07:24 > 0:07:26She was much more into it.
0:07:28 > 0:07:29I'm excited about you guys,
0:07:29 > 0:07:33because you already have a lot of experience with this.
0:07:33 > 0:07:36Harry has done dock diving before but he did it with my mum.
0:07:36 > 0:07:39This is the first time me and Harry have done it together.
0:07:39 > 0:07:44Looks like Harry has a head start, but will he dock dive for Charlotte?
0:07:44 > 0:07:47Do you think he could do the big dock right now?
0:07:48 > 0:07:50Maybe. Shall we have a go? I want to.
0:07:50 > 0:07:53Good for you, Charlotte.
0:07:53 > 0:07:54- OK, come to the dock. - Harry.
0:07:54 > 0:07:56A big test for the new partnership.
0:07:56 > 0:07:58He already seems so at home.
0:07:58 > 0:08:00- This will go quick. - He's going to jump in.
0:08:00 > 0:08:03Oh, he didn't. You thought he would, but he didn't.
0:08:03 > 0:08:08But let's see - let him explore the environment. Take your time.
0:08:08 > 0:08:11Harry seems happy with the dock - but will he jump?
0:08:12 > 0:08:14Get it!
0:08:15 > 0:08:18Ha-ha-ha, oh, my goodness gracious!
0:08:18 > 0:08:20Look at that!
0:08:20 > 0:08:22That was an INCREDIBLE jump!
0:08:22 > 0:08:26It looks Harry's previous dock-diving experience is paying off.
0:08:26 > 0:08:27The stakes just got high!
0:08:27 > 0:08:32Jessica and Jasmine must work extra hard for a shot at the quarterfinal.
0:08:32 > 0:08:34They still have a shot, though.
0:08:34 > 0:08:37Because if you're too overconfident, that can work against you too.
0:08:39 > 0:08:42Harry jumped really far and I was amazed he could do that with me.
0:08:45 > 0:08:46# Who let the dogs out? #
0:08:48 > 0:08:51While those guys are having fun at the lake,
0:08:51 > 0:08:54let's see some more dogs who love a good time!
0:08:57 > 0:09:01Time for some of the hippest dogs in town!
0:09:01 > 0:09:05These guys have got it going on - whether it's headbands...
0:09:05 > 0:09:07a spot of surfing...
0:09:07 > 0:09:09or just bein' cool on the beach.
0:09:11 > 0:09:13DJ SCRATCHING
0:09:14 > 0:09:16The windswept look!
0:09:16 > 0:09:20The chillin' in the hammock, laid-back and panting look!
0:09:20 > 0:09:21The DOGWALK look.
0:09:23 > 0:09:27Hey, why walk, when you can ride, man?!
0:09:32 > 0:09:36The suited, booted and goggled look.
0:09:36 > 0:09:39SNEEZES You can always sneeze to the beat.
0:09:39 > 0:09:42Or hop backwards to the beat.
0:09:43 > 0:09:46Open the door and come in from work to the beat.
0:09:47 > 0:09:51And then close the door sensibly to the beat.
0:09:51 > 0:09:53And wipe your feet to the beat.
0:09:56 > 0:09:58But here's the ultimate cool look -
0:09:58 > 0:10:03riding a Jet Ski while licking your nose! Oh, yeah!
0:10:03 > 0:10:05# Who let the dogs out? #
0:10:05 > 0:10:08Still to come on Who Let The Dogs Out? -
0:10:08 > 0:10:10a dog who thinks he's a dolphin.
0:10:10 > 0:10:12And which of the young trainers will be able to shake off
0:10:12 > 0:10:16the opposition to reach the quarterfinals?
0:10:16 > 0:10:18# Who let the dogs out? #
0:10:18 > 0:10:21Back at the lake they're still hard at work.
0:10:21 > 0:10:24Time for Angus to move onto the next stage of training
0:10:24 > 0:10:26and that means introducing him to the dock.
0:10:27 > 0:10:30I think we should move onto the lower dock,
0:10:30 > 0:10:32and encourage him to go there to get it.
0:10:32 > 0:10:34Angus, look! Come here! Look!
0:10:34 > 0:10:36Angus! OK, here we go.
0:10:36 > 0:10:39Be VERY careful. Look, what's this? Look!
0:10:41 > 0:10:43- Look, it's over there. Go get it!- Angus!
0:10:43 > 0:10:46That's OK. We're just trying to encourage him.
0:10:46 > 0:10:47Let him know it's a fun place to be.
0:10:47 > 0:10:51- He sees the tennis ball.- In you go!
0:10:51 > 0:10:56- He just wants a drink.- There's not enough water in this lake for you!
0:10:57 > 0:11:00- Go on, then.- Thinking about it. - Ooh.
0:11:00 > 0:11:02He's trying to DRINK his way to the ball!
0:11:02 > 0:11:05- Look at him thinking about it. Very good!- Good boy!
0:11:05 > 0:11:07We're not going to pressure him into it.
0:11:07 > 0:11:11It doesn't look like Angus is a huge fan of the dock.
0:11:11 > 0:11:15The training session went O...K,
0:11:15 > 0:11:20because Angus didn't go fully into the water, but he sort of went in.
0:11:20 > 0:11:23I think there's a lot of room for improvement.
0:11:23 > 0:11:27When you practise this later, I want you to really encourage him.
0:11:27 > 0:11:31You've got a lot of work to do, but I have faith that you can do it.
0:11:31 > 0:11:35Would you like to go back in, Angus? Nah, thought not!
0:11:35 > 0:11:39Next up, super-happy duo Jessica and Tilly.
0:11:39 > 0:11:42- I think we're ready for the lower dock. What do you think?- Yeah.
0:11:44 > 0:11:46Come on, let's go. I like how she went right on the dock.
0:11:49 > 0:11:51I want to get her pepped up, so she's more likely to jump in.
0:11:51 > 0:11:53Hey, Tilly, what's this? Get it!
0:11:53 > 0:11:55- Go get that ball!- Go on, Tilly.
0:11:55 > 0:11:58- Go on, get the ball. - Get it, get it, get it, get it!
0:11:58 > 0:12:00- Get that ball!- Go on, Tillsie!
0:12:00 > 0:12:01Definitely thinking about it!
0:12:01 > 0:12:06- YES! Very good! She did it! - Aw, ho-ho-ho...!
0:12:06 > 0:12:10- She actually went underwater. - Aw...! Yay!
0:12:10 > 0:12:12JESSICA GIGGLES
0:12:12 > 0:12:15Just part of doin' the job, man.
0:12:15 > 0:12:20- Very good. - Good girl! Come on, Tilly!
0:12:20 > 0:12:23- Can you not get to it? - Oh, she's trying so hard!
0:12:23 > 0:12:26Good girl! Very good!
0:12:26 > 0:12:28Well done, Tilly! That showed real determination.
0:12:28 > 0:12:33An awesome first session for learning dock diving. Good work.
0:12:35 > 0:12:39The best bit about my training was when Tilly jumped off the board,
0:12:39 > 0:12:44because she kept trying and then she did it in the end.
0:12:44 > 0:12:47Charlotte and Harry have one successful dock dive
0:12:47 > 0:12:49under their belt - let's see how they are getting on.
0:12:49 > 0:12:52OK, try it again, but this time get Harry to come up the bank.
0:12:52 > 0:12:55- That one or that one - which ever side he favours.- OK.
0:12:55 > 0:12:58- So make sure communications are ultra clear.- Yeah.- Go ahead.
0:12:58 > 0:13:03- Harry... - I want to get a good look at this!
0:13:03 > 0:13:05Go ahead!
0:13:05 > 0:13:07Whoa-oh! Look at this! Incredible.
0:13:07 > 0:13:11- Harry! Harry! - Harry, this way, buddy! Here!
0:13:11 > 0:13:14Despite their best efforts, he's still heading for the dock.
0:13:14 > 0:13:18He needs to come up on the bank instead of the dock.
0:13:18 > 0:13:24My plan to help with that is to call him from as far away as I can,
0:13:24 > 0:13:26so he'll come and follow me.
0:13:26 > 0:13:30OK, one more day to practise, then I'll see you here tomorrow, OK?
0:13:30 > 0:13:32- Bye, guys! - ALL: Bye!
0:13:35 > 0:13:38Angus, Harry and Tilly, like all dogs,
0:13:38 > 0:13:40have their own individual quirks and charms.
0:13:40 > 0:13:42Let's find out more about them.
0:13:42 > 0:13:46Harry is a Labrador retriever, and according to Charlotte,
0:13:46 > 0:13:49Harry likes everything - even trips to the vet. Weird!
0:13:50 > 0:13:52Harry has very tickly feet
0:13:52 > 0:13:56and his favourite thing to do is spin around with a toy in his mouth.
0:13:56 > 0:14:00Labrador retrievers have webbed paws which makes them excellent swimmers
0:14:00 > 0:14:02so Harry should be great at dock diving.
0:14:03 > 0:14:05Tilly, a two-year-old Labradoodle.
0:14:05 > 0:14:08A Labradoodle is a cross between a Labrador and a poodle.
0:14:08 > 0:14:12Tilly loves chasing balls, eating treats, and - wait for it -
0:14:12 > 0:14:15licking people's feet. Yu-uk!
0:14:15 > 0:14:19But its Tilly's love of swimming that makes her perfect here.
0:14:19 > 0:14:21Angus is a two-year-old briard.
0:14:22 > 0:14:24Briards originally come from France.
0:14:24 > 0:14:26Bonjour, Angus!
0:14:26 > 0:14:30Angus has won awards for being big and hairy
0:14:30 > 0:14:33and he's definitely both of those!
0:14:33 > 0:14:35Briards have good hearing and intelligence,
0:14:35 > 0:14:38so let's hope Angus can use his awesome brainpower
0:14:38 > 0:14:40to master dock diving.
0:14:40 > 0:14:41# Who let the dogs out? #
0:14:43 > 0:14:47It's training day two and with show time just one week away,
0:14:47 > 0:14:51our teams have been practising hard to win a place in the quarterfinals.
0:14:51 > 0:14:53But Charlotte's having trouble
0:14:53 > 0:14:55convincing Harry to jump off the dock.
0:14:57 > 0:14:58Go! Go! Harry!
0:15:00 > 0:15:01Go get it! Go on.
0:15:03 > 0:15:05He's thinking about doing it.
0:15:05 > 0:15:07A little reluctant...
0:15:07 > 0:15:10This is an interesting development, here.
0:15:10 > 0:15:12Where's the ball? Good boy.
0:15:12 > 0:15:14- What's this about? - HARRY WHINES
0:15:14 > 0:15:16What's he saying, Charlotte?
0:15:16 > 0:15:21- He's...he doesn't want to do it. - I see the concern on your face.
0:15:21 > 0:15:24I think we should encourage him to use the lower dock.
0:15:24 > 0:15:27- Just to reacclimatise him. Does that make sense?- Yeah.
0:15:27 > 0:15:29- Keep up the good work. - Harry?
0:15:29 > 0:15:34- Pick up the energy a little bit. - Come on! C'mon!- Nice!- C'mon, Harry!
0:15:34 > 0:15:36Let him think about it.
0:15:36 > 0:15:39Looks like Harry still isn't quite sure about going off the dock.
0:15:39 > 0:15:43If this happens at showtime, it could be a disaster.
0:15:43 > 0:15:46Maybe some extra practice would build his confidence back up.
0:15:46 > 0:15:50Yesterday Jessica and Tilly made real progress
0:15:50 > 0:15:52going into the water from the lower dock twice.
0:15:52 > 0:15:55But why's Tilly not going off the dock today?
0:15:55 > 0:15:59Tilly got a bit scared yesterday when she jumped off the dock,
0:15:59 > 0:16:03because her head and front legs went under
0:16:03 > 0:16:07and she doesn't like her head under the water.
0:16:07 > 0:16:11You can tell she wants to do it, she just thinks it will happen again.
0:16:11 > 0:16:14See if we can do that twice more then try the small dock again.
0:16:14 > 0:16:18- Yay! Good girl! - Keep the rhythm going.- Good girl!
0:16:18 > 0:16:22Finding a rhythm when teaching your dog a trick is incredibly important.
0:16:22 > 0:16:25- Keep her going. Keep her going. - Go on, Tilly. Good girl, good girl.
0:16:25 > 0:16:31Go on, Tilly. Good girl. Good girl! Come on, Tilly.
0:16:31 > 0:16:34Oh, no. That's now TWO of the dogs refusing to jump off the dock.
0:16:34 > 0:16:39Jessica needs to help Tilly get her confidence back before showtime,
0:16:39 > 0:16:41to stand a chance of winning the title.
0:16:41 > 0:16:43When she brings it back, maybe throw a couple on land,
0:16:43 > 0:16:47- and then into the water.- Yes! - Just really keep it up.
0:16:47 > 0:16:50If you have too much of a pause between turns,
0:16:50 > 0:16:54- you'll make less progress. OK? - Yeah.- So you go practise,
0:16:54 > 0:16:56while we'll bring in Jasmine and Angus.
0:16:56 > 0:16:58Tell me how training went yesterday?
0:16:58 > 0:17:01Well, it didn't go the best.
0:17:01 > 0:17:04He didn't quite get off the dock, but he was thinking about it.
0:17:04 > 0:17:07So I'm hoping we can improve that.
0:17:07 > 0:17:09Just encourage him, get him excited!
0:17:09 > 0:17:11Get it in the water.
0:17:12 > 0:17:14Good boy!
0:17:14 > 0:17:16- There's a good boy! - He might do it! He might do it!
0:17:16 > 0:17:18Nope. He's not going to do it.
0:17:18 > 0:17:19He found one!
0:17:19 > 0:17:26Oh, look. He let go. Yes, good dog! That's called "let go" - good job!
0:17:26 > 0:17:28Let him know you love it when he does comply.
0:17:28 > 0:17:30- Good boy!- It's easy to miss the opportunities
0:17:30 > 0:17:34to let your dog know they've done the right thing, and it's critical!
0:17:34 > 0:17:37I want you guys to work on getting that solid fetch.
0:17:37 > 0:17:43Try fetch on land, then when he's doing well, sneak one into water.
0:17:43 > 0:17:48See if you can get him to just be spontaneous and plunge. OK?
0:17:48 > 0:17:52Oh, dear! Will ANY of our dogs jump from the dock at showtime?
0:17:52 > 0:17:55I'm not overly confident with mine and Angus's chances.
0:17:55 > 0:17:59We're just here to have some fun and try our best.
0:17:59 > 0:18:01Come gather round, gather round.
0:18:01 > 0:18:05You guys should be proud of yourselves, you've done incredible.
0:18:05 > 0:18:06You kept the mood upbeat,
0:18:06 > 0:18:08lively and happy - that's what you have to do
0:18:08 > 0:18:10to master dock diving.
0:18:10 > 0:18:12You have one week until showtime,
0:18:12 > 0:18:16so practise a lot, keep it upbeat and fun and we'll see you in a week.
0:18:16 > 0:18:18- Bye, guys! - ALL: Bye!
0:18:20 > 0:18:23Dock diving is one of the most difficult stunts to master
0:18:23 > 0:18:25but if your dog's brave enough to take a leap of faith,
0:18:25 > 0:18:28the rewards are well worth it.
0:18:28 > 0:18:32Here are Zak's five steps to successful dock diving.
0:18:33 > 0:18:38One: Get your dog used to the water by playing fetch from the bank.
0:18:38 > 0:18:43Two: Use your dog's favourite toy to get it used to the lower dock.
0:18:43 > 0:18:47Three: Encourage your dog to go into the water from the lower dock -
0:18:47 > 0:18:49keep it fun.
0:18:49 > 0:18:54Four: Encourage your dog to come up the bank - it's easier and safer.
0:18:54 > 0:18:58Five: Once your dog is comfortable, try the higher dock.
0:18:58 > 0:18:59If they jump - great!
0:18:59 > 0:19:03If not, keep building confidence on the lower dock and try again.
0:19:06 > 0:19:09Today I'll show you how to teach your dog
0:19:09 > 0:19:11something every dog should know.
0:19:11 > 0:19:15If you can teach this to your dog, you'll be hooked on dog training.
0:19:15 > 0:19:19I'm going to teach you how to teach your dog to leave anything alone.
0:19:19 > 0:19:22And I'm talking ANYTHING. Like real meat!
0:19:22 > 0:19:24Come here, Nelly!
0:19:24 > 0:19:28Look what I got. First, I want to get Nelly know it's OK to get this.
0:19:28 > 0:19:32Just to show you she is interested in eating this meat off the ground.
0:19:32 > 0:19:34I'm using tiny pieces. There... She takes it off the ground.
0:19:34 > 0:19:40Now, I drop it...and if she goes for it...I cover it.
0:19:40 > 0:19:43She's trying to get it, but the second she moves her head away...
0:19:43 > 0:19:45Guess what I'll do.
0:19:46 > 0:19:48Yes! Good.
0:19:48 > 0:19:50Leave it! I'm saying, "Leave it,"
0:19:50 > 0:19:53but you can say, "Don't touch", "Pay attention to me," it doesn't matter.
0:19:53 > 0:19:57Our dogs are capable of understanding anything,
0:19:57 > 0:19:58we just got to teach them.
0:19:58 > 0:20:01Ready? Just like this - do you see this?
0:20:01 > 0:20:05The tendency is a lot of people want to pull their dogs away.
0:20:05 > 0:20:08That's lazy. That's not dog training -
0:20:08 > 0:20:12anybody can do that. We want our dogs to think.
0:20:13 > 0:20:15Leave it. Yes, good!
0:20:15 > 0:20:20I'm going to pick up the treat and give it to her, like that. Ready?
0:20:20 > 0:20:22Covering it up. She goes for it...
0:20:22 > 0:20:25she's starting to get it already. Leave it. Leave it!
0:20:25 > 0:20:28Good girl. Now, check this out.
0:20:28 > 0:20:32I've got hot dogs. I'm going to drop them in front of her.
0:20:32 > 0:20:36Come on, get up, get up. Good. See this? Leave it alone.
0:20:40 > 0:20:43And, Nelly - you are just a superstar as usual.
0:20:43 > 0:20:46Take a big hotdog there.
0:20:46 > 0:20:49That's how you teach Leave It. Very important command.
0:20:53 > 0:20:56Dogs are often called man's best friend,
0:20:56 > 0:20:58but dogs aren't exactly exclusive.
0:20:58 > 0:21:02In fact, they can be best friends with any animal.
0:21:05 > 0:21:09This story begins on Tory Island off the Donegal coast
0:21:09 > 0:21:13where an unlikely friendship has blossomed.
0:21:13 > 0:21:16Zak says a man's best friend is his dog,
0:21:16 > 0:21:18but who is a dog's best friend?
0:21:18 > 0:21:20That's right - it's Dougie the dolphin!
0:21:20 > 0:21:24This is Ben the Labrador and according to his family
0:21:24 > 0:21:28he never used to like water much at all until he met Dougie.
0:21:28 > 0:21:30Now Ben regularly paces the pier
0:21:30 > 0:21:33waiting for Dougie to come and play with him.
0:21:33 > 0:21:37Dougie is a bottlenose dolphin and was given the name Dougie
0:21:37 > 0:21:40because everyone thought she was a boy.
0:21:40 > 0:21:43Turns out Dougie was actually a girl. Whoops!
0:21:43 > 0:21:46No-one knows how these two became friends,
0:21:46 > 0:21:49but maybe they found a common interest,
0:21:49 > 0:21:52which is amazing when you think about it.
0:21:52 > 0:21:56Another theory is that Ben is a dolphin trapped inside a dog's body
0:21:56 > 0:22:00and I just made that last bit up because it's stupid.
0:22:02 > 0:22:05The two weeks' intensive training is over
0:22:05 > 0:22:07and it's time for our trainers
0:22:07 > 0:22:09to put all they've learned to the test
0:22:09 > 0:22:13as they battle it out for a place in the quarterfinals.
0:22:14 > 0:22:16The stakes are high
0:22:16 > 0:22:21and with just one place up for grabs, nothing is guaranteed.
0:22:21 > 0:22:24To make Angus jump, we might put a bit of food in the pool
0:22:24 > 0:22:28and we're going to tie his hair up so he can see a bit better.
0:22:28 > 0:22:30Who will hold their nerve?
0:22:30 > 0:22:33Taking part in the challenge is exciting.
0:22:33 > 0:22:36My main competition will be Jessica.
0:22:36 > 0:22:40I think she'll be very good by the time she comes back.
0:22:40 > 0:22:43And who will dive into the quarterfinals?
0:22:43 > 0:22:46If I get through, I'll feel really pleased
0:22:46 > 0:22:51because we've done loads of training sessions and I hope they'll pay off.
0:22:51 > 0:22:54It is time to find out.
0:22:59 > 0:23:01It's showtime for our dock-diving dogs.
0:23:01 > 0:23:04One by one, our dogs will hopefully jump
0:23:04 > 0:23:07from the low or high dock - I don't mind which -
0:23:07 > 0:23:10and the dog which jumps furthest
0:23:10 > 0:23:13will be one step closer to taking home this
0:23:13 > 0:23:17the first Who Let The Dogs Out? top dog-trainer trophy.
0:23:17 > 0:23:20First up, we have Charlotte and Harry.
0:23:20 > 0:23:25Charlotte's been struggling to get Harry to jump in training.
0:23:25 > 0:23:30Will he keep his focus and secure a place in the quarterfinals?
0:23:32 > 0:23:36Wow! He's remembered how to jump. It's only his first attempt.
0:23:36 > 0:23:38Good boy!
0:23:38 > 0:23:41Charlotte looks relieved - and so she should be.
0:23:43 > 0:23:47He's like a graceful gazelle - except he's a dog, obviously.
0:23:47 > 0:23:51Pretty impressive for a first jump, but how far was it?
0:23:51 > 0:23:53Wow!
0:23:53 > 0:23:58That is amazing considering we saw him refuse to jump during training.
0:23:58 > 0:24:03He seems focused, but can he pull another massive jump out of the bag?
0:24:03 > 0:24:06- Go on.- Yes! It's another great jump.
0:24:06 > 0:24:11He's some kind of super dog from another planet or something.
0:24:11 > 0:24:14And how far was that one?
0:24:16 > 0:24:19Whoa! He's jumping further every time.
0:24:19 > 0:24:24Charlotte really must have worked hard on their partnership
0:24:24 > 0:24:28to get results like these. It's a slow start, getting faster...
0:24:29 > 0:24:33- Wa-hey! It's another huge jump! - Come here.
0:24:33 > 0:24:37He's amazing - look at the height he jumps. Brilliant!
0:24:37 > 0:24:39But did he go longer?
0:24:46 > 0:24:50So Harry's second jump of 3.8m is the distance to beat.
0:24:50 > 0:24:54Really nice to watch. Next up we've got Jasmine and Angus.
0:24:54 > 0:24:59Jasmine's had to work really hard on Angus' confidence in the water.
0:24:59 > 0:25:02Good boy, Angus!
0:25:03 > 0:25:06Let's hope this is their time to shine.
0:25:06 > 0:25:11Oh, but what's this? She's not even throwing it off the dock.
0:25:11 > 0:25:16It still counts as one of their three attempts. Attempt number two.
0:25:16 > 0:25:18Jasmine's remembered Zak's training.
0:25:18 > 0:25:24She's trying to get Angus in play mode. He's made it on to the dock.
0:25:24 > 0:25:26Oh, Angus - that won't count either.
0:25:27 > 0:25:33It's Angus' final attempt and Jasmine has decided to play a game of fetch.
0:25:33 > 0:25:37He hasn't done any diving, but it was great to see him get this far.
0:25:37 > 0:25:41Really, really good work, guys. Really proud of you.
0:25:41 > 0:25:45He may not have the dock dived, but he looks really cool in slow mo.
0:25:45 > 0:25:51- No need to dry off this soggy doggy. - Next up, Jessica and Tilly.
0:25:51 > 0:25:54During training, Tilly went headfirst into the lake,
0:25:54 > 0:25:57but took a knock to her confidence.
0:25:57 > 0:25:59Now they're the only team left
0:25:59 > 0:26:02with any chance at all of snatching the win
0:26:02 > 0:26:04from Charlotte and Harry.
0:26:04 > 0:26:07It looks like Jessica's used her first attempt
0:26:07 > 0:26:09to get Tilly used to the water.
0:26:09 > 0:26:13It's their second attempt and more confidence building.
0:26:13 > 0:26:17Jessica is pinning their hopes on the final attempt.
0:26:17 > 0:26:21This is their last chance to win a place in the quarterfinals.
0:26:21 > 0:26:24She's on the dock. This could be the one.
0:26:24 > 0:26:26- Yes - jump in the water! - Go on, Tilly.
0:26:26 > 0:26:28She's going back to the bank.
0:26:28 > 0:26:32It won't count. Impressive swimming, though.
0:26:32 > 0:26:35Tilly may not be a champion dock-diving dog,
0:26:35 > 0:26:38but she's certainly a mean mover and shaker.
0:26:38 > 0:26:40# Who let the dogs out? #
0:26:42 > 0:26:48You guys did an incredible job. I enjoyed watching you compete today,
0:26:48 > 0:26:54but I can now reveal that the winner of today's dock-diving challenge
0:26:54 > 0:26:56is Charlotte and Harry.
0:26:56 > 0:26:59Congratulations. How do you feel about it?
0:26:59 > 0:27:03I think it's been really nice working with Harry
0:27:03 > 0:27:07- and winning is just really nice. - Your hard work has paid off.
0:27:07 > 0:27:10You have all enjoyed it and that's what we're after here.
0:27:10 > 0:27:13I'm pleased that you guys enjoyed your experience at the Dog House.
0:27:13 > 0:27:18So Charlotte and Harry will go on to the quarterfinals next time.
0:27:18 > 0:27:21Next time, three more trainers and their dogs
0:27:21 > 0:27:24will attempt to secure their spot in the quarterfinals
0:27:24 > 0:27:27with another amazing stunt. Don't miss it.
0:27:29 > 0:27:33Next time, Hannah and Tilly, Dylan and Chase and Kimberly and Millie
0:27:33 > 0:27:38get set for magical mayhem when Zak reveals an incredible new trick.
0:27:38 > 0:27:42You're going to teach your dogs how to disappear.
0:27:43 > 0:27:45I think we came third, me and Angus,
0:27:45 > 0:27:49but it's still a great achievement to be at the Dog House.
0:27:49 > 0:27:52I really enjoyed coming and taking part.
0:27:52 > 0:27:56Tilly tried hard and I'm really pleased at how good she did.
0:27:56 > 0:27:59Harry is the best dog in the world to me.
0:27:59 > 0:28:01I feel really excited
0:28:01 > 0:28:04because I think I can beat the others in the quarterfinals.
