Cas - Richard Hammond

Travelled down to London with Cas as we had been invited on the show because they were looking for talented pets. The show was filmed live so we had a couple of rehearsals. It is the first time Cas has been in a studio environment so I was really pleased with how she coped, I thought she might freak out but she was absolutely fine! We had one rehearsal then I had a bit of lunch then in the afternoon we had a dress rehearsal. We were in the second quarter of the live show so we got into position behind the curtains ready to go on. It was very dark and Cas is scared stiff of the dark and she saw the shadow of someone and barked, apparently you can just about hear it on the show lol!

Anyway it was our cue and we walked down the steps onto set. Richard asked me some different questions to the ones he had asked me in rehearsals, so it threw me a bit. But Cassie did her moves perfectly. In rehearsal they had had some videos of animals doing various tricks they were going to play but they likes Cas so much they cut those out.

It was another tiring day and Cas couldn't wait to get in the car to go home!!
