Missy is an outstanding dog. Once she wins this contest she deserves to be on the Greatest American Dog show. The bond between dog and owner is obvious. She has my vote!!!!

Sweet Dog, awesome handling skills. That is just some amazing work from the both of you. You two get my vote. Good Luck!

Is it just me, or is the owner pretending to be a different person, and writing down pleasant comments for a mediocre trick just five minutes apart?

Sheryl says ...

On Saturday, Aug 2 at 11:03 AM

Missy is great. She should win hands down.

Mike Harvey says ...

To suspicious Commenter. I really dont have that kind of time to put into creating that many names. I also am not to the kind of person to resort to such tactics to win. I was urged to enter the competition by friends and family and did.

Mike, Missy is awesome! When I saw her at Kyle's, I knew she was talented, but that video blew my mind. Kudos to you and Missy. I hope you win.

Missy is the greatest. She teaches all the other dogs in class how to behave and is the sweetest, smartest dog you could ever want to have. Missy and Mike - what a team! They definitely deserve to win!!! Go Missy!

Suspicious Commenter, I don't think they judge on how many people write in or the comments they leave. Yes it seems many have commented 5 minutes apart, but how could one person do that. Friends may have been in on it though. Its judged on the vidio.

Cindy says ...

Commenter

You guys rock!! Mike and Missy are such an inspiration to all of us in the canine community. The rapport that you too have shows in all your efforts and makes you both shine!! With much support and admiration, we think you're the best!!

Spongebob Squarepants says ...

On Tuesday, Aug 5 at 8:08 PM

Commenter

I'd have to agree with the supicious commenter, because I noticed that they are 5 mintues apart, but it also seems like most of these commenters aren't friends...so does he call unkown people and tell them to vote for thier dog?

Brenda says ...

On Wednesday, Aug 6 at 10:07 AM

Commenter

It sounds like the suspcicious commenter is jealous. This is one great video and I am completely amazed at Missy's skills and the rapport the handler has with the dog. Absolutely wonderful! She is truly a great dog that has been trained very well!

I know both Mike and Missy and can vouch for the character of both--yes even the dog. Suspicious commenter needs to get a life. Who has time to document the time elapsed between comments? Mike, I hope all of your friends and fans comment.

Maritza says ...

Commenter

Well, I don't know if I'm commenting within five mnts. of anyone else whoever they are...but I saw the video and I think they are a great team!! Missy does great and one can tell she's very happy doing all of it.

Josie says ...

Commenter

My best friend's dog is deaf and Mike's training with him has been phenonemal...as is this video! The love and dedi- cation Mike & Missy have for each other speaks loud and clear as do the responses. Friends or not, what does it matter?

Laurie Hayes says ...

On Wednesday, Aug 6 at 11:08 AM

Commenter

The love and respect between you and Missy really shines through. You have a wonderful bond with Missy! Good luck!

Cruiser says ...

Commenter

I have seen Missy in person, she is extremely talented!! Hands down, one of best trained dogs I have ever met. Suspicious/Spongebob- this is about awesome training of his four legged friend not about who you think may have posted comments...

Sheamus says ...

On Wednesday, Aug 6 at 11:15 AM

Commenter

My owner tells me time and time again that she wishes I could act like Missy and then I dream that I wish my owner was like Mike. We both think that you should win!!!

Judie says ...

On Wednesday, Aug 6 at 12:45 PM

Commenter

First of all, you need't respond to someone like Suspicious Commenter; he or she apparently has entered a dog of less quality & talent. Secondly, you and Missy are an awesome duo. You've got my vote! Keep up the great work.

I've seen this duo in action,and the video while it is awesome,does not do Missy Justice. She is incredible. Her enthusiasm and desire to please along with her discipline is amazing to see in person.Truly a remarkable and beautifully trained dog.

Just thought it was good for a professional dog trainer, the others are actually real people with their pets that they have taught stuff too.

Joe says ...

On Saturday, Aug 9 at 4:33 PM

While Missy is a great dog, is it really fair to have a PROFESSIONAL dog trainer up against regular folks and their dogs?

I THINK WE HAVE THE WINNERS WITH MIKE & MISSY. ANYONE WHO PUTS THIS MUCH TIME INTO TRAINING A DOG PROFESSIONAL OR NOT HAS A REAL LOVE FOR ANIMALS. THEY ALWAYS SAY YOU SHOULD FIND A JOB YOU LOVE, THANKS FOR ENTERING..

We are friends of Mike and Missy and both are wonderful. I know that Mike and Missy are devoted to each other and he and Missy should have been selected for the national contest. I hope they win this contest anyway. We love you Mike and Missy.

It seems that " Wondering Watcher " and "Joe " are saying that professional dog trainers ARE NOT " real people " and should not be in this contest. Get a life BOYS ! Mike is a real person and his love of dogs shows in his work. GO MISSY !!!!!!

wow this dog is amazing... this doggie definitely deserves to win this contest... and a good job to you (the owner) who spent so much time with this dog for her to master these tricks. good luck & i hope you win Missy.

Awesome! I cannot see there is even a close runner to Missy! Go for the Gold Missy & Mike. Hands down my choice for 1st place!

Wondering Watcher says ...

On Monday, Aug 11 at 12:07 PM

Commenter

I never said that they weren't good, but that the other videos of regular folks that aren't trainers that love their pets and taught them all kinds of tricks is what makes them more real because they have no formal training in dog training.

Marcy says ...

On Monday, Aug 11 at 1:57 PM

Commenter

Well, a pro dog trainer shouldn't really be running along with the other dogs, I mean, the other ones are showing that they have a real connection with their dog, rather than you learning how to connect with a dog.

I hope that bugsy wins says ...

On Monday, Aug 11 at 1:59 PM

That girl took that dog out of death, and she taught it fantastic tricks... AND she probably had no experience with dog training.

Response to Judie from Jenna says ...

On Monday, Aug 11 at 3:52 PM

Commenter

Your horrible remark to the commenter of the time elapse was mean-spirited. Saying that they are angry, and they probably entered a dog of less quality! That's rude, and I don't know if I'll vote for this dog, I might go vote for the lesser dog!!!!!

Mindy says ...

That was great and you both deserve to win this one HANDS DOWN!!!!

What a great gal! I am a retriever lover and I wanted to like the lab, but there was no contest. Missy wins my vote! That type of training takes alot of time, patience and love between dog and owner. Do not discount that! GOOD LUCK MISSY!!
