That ’s the issue facing one dog — Blueberry — who represent the " non - walking group " in the Badminster show , hosted by Judas Chrysler ( host William Defoe ) and Miriam Jeans ( Aidy Bryant ) . They recite the action as each of the four dog are assess on how comically " bad " they are .

Luna

Issue : This perspirer - clad dog , exemplify the " wonky click grouping , " hates noises , including honk , fireworks , and the sound Netflix make when you start the app . ( To be fair , that sound always seems set to a much high volume than it should be . )

Stregowski says : Being afraid of noises is a hard issue to tackle , but some dogs benefit from having a safe space , which Luna reportedly has behind the privy .

" Some weenie respond todesensitization and counterconditioning . The best place to initiate come help for your dog-iron is through your veterinarian or a certified animate being behavior professional , " Stregowski says .

Pigeon

Issue : Called a " sexual predatory animal " by Chrysler , we can assume thisbeaglehumps a bunch .

Stregowski says : This is not always a procreative behavior ; sometimes humping can indicate excitation or stress . So we ’d severalise Pigeon ’s owner to examine to cypher out why he ’s doing it . If it take place during play and the other domestic dog does n’t seem to listen , then it ’s probably harmless .

" However , some dogs react badly to being humped . It ’s best toredirect blackguard from humping by using toys or games . A certified bounder flight simulator or behaviorist can also help oneself here , " Stregowski says .

Blueberry

Issue : Won’t walk . So much so that she grounded a flight .

Stregowski say : Blueberry , adachshundby the feel of her , is a pup , and teaching them to walk can be difficult , especially on a leash . Thankfully , you could instruct your puppy towalk on a leashusingpositive reinforcementtraining . Additionally , you ’ll want to keep your pup’snails trimmed .

" Also , some dogs have worry on glib surfaces and will hold out walking . These dog can profit from mats or rugs to help with traction , " Stregowski enunciate .

Gizmo

progeny : Just so many wellness subject — trouble with his feet , anal secreter , peel , brainiac , and allergies — plus a generative organ that is too big and sometimes require to be " reinserted . "

Stregowski say : misfortunate Gizmo is a " frequent flyer " in the veterinary world , either with inherited health job or ones he ’s prepare over his lifetime . The penis event is actually not something made up by the SNL writer , it ’s calledparaphimosis . So he necessitate even , quality vet care along with a human being who has time to like for him at home .

" Owners with dogs like Gizmo will need to finda trust veterinarianwith whom they can communicate regularly , " Stregowski say .

Gizmo , perhaps unsurprisingly , win the Badminster Dog Show top prize : a halcyon ice can and a lifetime supplying of Gallus gallus os on the pavement . Good occupation , little pal .
