'AGT' fans mesmerized by Adrian Stoica and his 'super smart' dog's wake-up act: 'Hurricane stole the show'

Adrian Stoica and his talented dog Hurricane received a standing ovation from judges and the audience

PASADENA, CALIFORNIA: Animal acts have always amazed fans and judges on 'America's Got Talent'. In the fifth audition round, Adrian Stoica and his loyal dog Hurricane captivated everyone with their incredible bond. Adrian is an experienced dog trainer who has won numerous national and international competitions, establishing himself as a true champion.

To move forward in the auditions, an act needs at least three "yes" votes from the four judges - Sofia Vergara, Howie Mandel, Heidi Klum, and Simon Cowell. If two or more judges buzz to show their disapproval, the act is immediately eliminated. Adding to the excitement, each judge and host Terry Crews have the power to use the Golden Buzzer, which sends an act directly to the thrilling live performances. As Adriana and Hurricane showcased their talent, fans were left eagerly hoping for a Golden Buzzer moment for the remarkable duo.
