Junior Dog Show

The Junior Dog Show is a location seen in Lilo & Stitch: The Series. It only appears in the episode "Yapper."

When Mertle reveals to Lilo that she is entering her "dog" Gigi in the junior dog show in Honolulu, and after Mertle calls Lilo and Stitch "riffraff", Lilo also goes to Honolulu with Jumba and Pleakley. When they arrive there, Lilo enters Stitch in the junior dog show, claming that he is a rare blue-furred ectoplasmic detection dog, which impresses the judges somewhat. Both Lilo and Mertle end up entering Stitch and Gigi into all the competitions. However, Stitch's temper (when he fights with another dog after the latter sniffs him) and overconfidence causes him to lose the first two rounds. In the final competition, Mertle secretly gives Stitch extra strong coffee to make the latter go crazy so that Gigi would win. Mertle's plan is successful at first until Gantu suddenly bursts into the stadium. Stitch attacks Gantu as he fires his plasma gun uncontrollably. However, a stray plasma blast causes the ceiling to collapse on top of Stitch. Gantu then grabs Gigi from Mertle. Mertle complains that Gantu took Gigi, but Lilo tells Mertle that they will save Gigi. Lilo then gives Stitch more coffee intentionally, enabling the latter to defeat Gantu and get Gigi back.

Grateful but indignant, Mertle gives the "Best in Show" trophy to Lilo, saying that she and Gigi don't need it anymore and that they already know that they are the best. However, Lilo and Stitch both seem to take it okay.
