'AGT' creators wanted dog act Daisy May and Clifford to audition for the NBC show
In an interview with Stormlake.com, Amy talked about her newfound fame and how she and her two fur babies landed on 'AGT' Season 19.
“I’ve been posting pictures of Daisy on Instagram and the casting director reached out to me. Daisy is a basset hound, so she’s short, she does agility tricks, jumping and tunnels and all of that," Amy said.
She went on to say, "The casting director said, ‘I love what you’re doing.’ So I sent all our videos to the casting director for a video audition. I heard that 6,500 people have submitted video auditions this season."
The Chicago native added, "Around Christmas, I got word that AGT wanted us to do an in-person audition, so my husband Tim Evans, my brother Dave (from Cherokee) and I took our dogs to Los Angeles on St. Patrick’s Day. It was really cool."
“We performed on stage for the AGT judges and a small audience plus they recorded it. Daisy and I did agility together at an indoor arena," she continued.
Amy continued, "Simon Cowell, Howie Mandel, Heidi Klum, and Sofia Vergara were there. Since basset hounds are very short, that was the challenge and the talent for Daisy to do all the jumping. Clifford, my bloodhound, even came out on stage, too. We did it and it was so exciting! It was an amazing opportunity and really fun.”
