i just watched online, and was so impressed with presley, and with travis too.
my buster is only a few months younger than presley, and would have bolted at the first squeak from a toy, or at the invitation from absolutely anyone to play. i actually felt as if the second challenge was more torturous than just making him sit/stay on the stump, and felt worse for him when he was trying so hard to be a good boy and listen to his daddy while there was so much fun stuff around him. i could see his muscles tensing and imagined the debate going on inside his puppy mind. i thought he showed remarkable restraint and loyalty, but i am way prejudiced.
while andrew is clearly obedient, he just does not seem to have any joy or exuberance in him. he is what i would call "robotic" as the judges labeled galaxy. as for the judge who clearly does not like presely, buster and i decided that she seems to be the type of gal who carries her dog around in a purse, so we don't value her opinion at all.
