Bootz might be a weird name, but it's a strong one too, since he beat Missy with his tough "boots"! Linus might be "flax" in Greek, but isn't flax healthy for you? That's right; LINUS healthily beat Roman! This match was very close, with a tie, but Ms. Bynoe, our very own Animal Lovers Club teacher, was the tiebreaker for Sam vs. Finn! And Finn took the win for the great dogs out there! Congrats to all the animals advancing! And to all the animals who lost, you still did great.
