| Aww..I was sad to see Ron and Tilman go...I really dont get the judges. I mean, Bulldogs look "lazy" naturally- they lay on the floor half asleep most of the day. So Ron tried something different. Tillman laying his head on the back of the chair while Ron was trying to get him to do SOMETHING was actually LAZY! I cant believe the judges didnt get that 
I REALLY disagree with a photoshoot with the emotion ANGRY. HOW this show could even get away with having that is beyond me! In order to get a dog to become angry, you would have to do some pretty cruel things to it, such as yelling at it or acting like you are going to hit it or scaring it or any number of things that would be cruel. Even then some dogs might not get angry. But just having to practice for that would put the dog in such distress and be utterly confusing.
Not cool. Whoever came up with that is beyond stupid, and are totally to blame..I mean, not only does it do nothing for the dog, its dangerous..as shown when Teresa got bitten. Noone wants to make a dog angry, and the snarl band (which I believe is approved for use on movie and TV sets) was a bad choice...but a lot less problematic for me that having the owner taunt their pet, possibly leading to other trust issues down the road.
I cant really think of what she could have done. Unless he had a toy that he growled at or something  Or let him rip something to shreds or something?
I thought Bill, for all his worry, did a good job. The first thing I thought of with "Stubborn" was my dog NOT wanting to move and just planking her butt down
Hilarious moment...Tillman farted on the way out the door! Priceless.
