Pet Star show

I was watching a tv show on animal planet a few months ago. Its called pet star and it is a pet trick contest. They have some really cool tricks and some stupid ones. There was a guinea pig on the one I saw. It didnt look like a trick though. The boy had the pig sitting in his lap. The boy roughly pushed the guinea pigs hair backwards. The pig screamed, of course. This was the trick. I was so mad. That wasent a trick it was tourcher(sp). Did anybody see that show?

Re: Pet Star show

Oh my gosh! That's horrible! I can't believe how stupid people are. Yeah, let's make it scream and call that a trick. Oh, and let's air it on TV so that everyone else can see my really cool idea, especially kids who don't know better! Gosh, I get mad at stuff like this. Whatever happened to common sense?

Re: Pet Star show

For me animal planet is on channel 43. But check your local listings or tv guide, or the tv guide channel .

I saw that too, wasnt the kid singing a song as he was pushing the hair up to make the piggy squeal? I think he was singing 'pop goes the weasel' or what ever the heck that weird song is called.

I like Animal Planet over all, but some shows I don't totally like. Like "Thats my Baby" half of the time the animals that are having babies were breed animals, or had only been bred once because they are pure bred, so they 'have' {being sarcastic} to have babies once...
And that stupid vet LA vet show, with that lady who I doubt was an actual vet, I don't know if that is still even on TV but when it was it was totally stupid....
But I like the Animal Curelty Investigation shows {not how the abusive people treat the animals but the other parts of the show like when they rescue them and arrest the animal abuser}.

I also like Emergency Vets, and A Pet Story.
But I don't like King Of the Jungle, Crocidile Hunter, or any show with snakes or reptiles. I prefer small and furry, not scaley and slippery....

Re: Pet Star show

I think the pet phycik is dumb (no idea how to spell that)

Anyway, Ive been finding alot of nice shows on discovery kids... Like adventure camp is pretty cool, its a bounch of kids who spend the summer going to seaworld doing each job once.... Last one I saw they got to go into the penguin display and feed them, they ended up in a snowfight, it's really a cute show, I'm trying to think of someothers (see I got stuck watching these because nothing was on this last saturday) Outward bound is good if your into oudoorzie stuff its some aussie and some american kids doing stuff in austraila, I think they are trying to get to a destination or something but they do alot of things like rockclimbing and other stuff along the way

They arnt great shows but they're ok

Hey does anyone know if they still have that game show type thing on the animal planet where the kids do corses and answer questions on all things related to animals? And win like a day at a really big zoo?

Re: Pet Star show

ya it is, but then again its sending off the message that people can have this power... which certainly isnt true. I just found the show a bit cheesy, thinking "how can anyone believe this junk?" .

What are you guys favorite animal shows?

Re: Pet Star show

Ohhh, I used to love that pet psychic show, but then it was the same stuff over and over again. And I watched emergency vets for a long time, but then I had to put my dog to sleep, and it just became hard to watch other families go through it sometimes. but on a happier note, i always watch adoption tales...every day! i love it...there were eskimo dogs on it today....verryyyy cute! i like it because the animals are always just the sweetest little things. i always watch animal planet while doing my work (i'm homeschooled)...i'm sucha dork ... only a few months til graduation!

Re: Pet Star show

The zoo thing isint on anymore. They hosted it at the SanDiego Zoo. Ive seen it. They took it down now, so I think its over. The pet pyscic is on at like five in the morning my time. The only reason I even saw it at that time was because I needed to get up early for work. One of my favorite show is Animal Miricales. Its on at like 10am. The stories are really awsome. Im home schooled too!

Re: Pet Star show

Lol I go to online school (same as being home schooled except on a computer).. But I don't watch TV during school, because we don't have cable.
I saw that Pet Star show with the poor piggy! That kid was mean.

Re: Pet Star show

yeah. i do alot of it at night...like 11pm. sometime i have to work in the evenings, so i do school during the day until i have to go to work.
my friends that still go to public school want to hang out after they're done w/school, i work around that too...but my mom is strict about making sure it gets done, it just doesn't matter when.

Re: Pet Star show

I do most of my school at night (because I don't sleep very much {10 pm - 1 am}), but I do some of it during the day. It depends on how busy I am during the day.
