After a few weeks of waiting, the big day of the auditions arrived. Millie and Slush went back stage to wait for their turn. The judges (Gary Barlow, Tulisa, Usher and Katy Perry) waited until the act before Slush and Millie had finished before they told them what they (and the audience) thought of the act; soon it was time for Slush and Millie to do their audition. While Slush and Millie performed, the rest of the team stayed in the wings with the presenters , Mike and Steve, who pressed play once they were ready, which was straight away.
The audience were cheering away for Millie and Slush, which made them extra happy.
'I hope the judges love us.' Both dogs thought
Finishing their song, Slush and Millie could clearly see that the judges liked their act as they too were standing and cheering for them. Millie and Slush went through to the semi-finals. Millie jumped for joy as Slush hugged her to calm her down; Slush and Millie walked off stage to the rest of the team, where the team and even the presenters gave them hugs to congratulate them.
Millie and Slush went to their own dressing room, where they could go before the show, so they could freshen up before they went back to HQ to talk about their semi- final song with the team.
