Unfortunately I can’t see them dropping the public vote as this would curtail the revenue, some of which I notice goes to Children in need. Surely it should all go to dog orientated charities. It was great to see the dogs do well, lets hope that they go to good homes. Cute though Casper was it was a relief that Chump won the final. It would have made a mockery of the whole series had he won.

I’m glad Casper has regained his confidence and hope he finds a loving home BUT the idea of training is so that the dog can go out and react to commands from a new owner for the dogs sake and for others. If a competition is about one thing you can’t enter and then do whatever you think i.e. use a skateboard in the Marathon. Enjoyable and amusing but not the point.

I would have liked to see what Chump could have done without the constant feeding around the course.

I have to say that I disagree. The Underdog show was not really about dancing dogs and getting them to jump through hoops and most certainly not about the handlers, it was about raising awareness of the plight of rescue dogs.

Casper made the biggest journey and I think that the public reflected that in its votes.

I must say I was put off my dinner by judges who were constantly fawning over Selina Scott.

What Huey and his trainer did do for Casper was to teach him to be a dog again and to start a new life.

The dogs are the winners here but lets not forget the thousands abused dogs that need rescuing out there.

Common sense has prevailed!

Congratulations to Selina Scott and Chump, well deserved winners.

Good luck Casper, we hope you find a good home, you certainly deserve to.
