TeeGee was always Hammond's dog. She still lives with the Hammond family, but I always felt the idea of Top Gear Dog was just one of those ideas they run with for one season or two at most, like Hamster having his teeth whitened, or the Dacia Sandero and "I went on the internet last week and found this...." things. Just a running gag that had its time that's all. Or so we are led to believe.

Sweet and Sour Labradoodle anyone?

You couldn't really expect him to last that long seeing as how he wasn't really a "character" he was more of a prop.


And he was in the 9th series wasn't he? I am pretty sure he's the one who "helped" Hammond clear the field in the tractor challenge. Could be wrong though, I haven't seen that episode in a while, could have just been another one of Hammond's dogs.

TeeGee is a bitch, not a dog.

She was in the tractor challenge programme and was meant to have been waiting for Hammond on the runway when he drove the jet car but she had to go home cos her fur was full of burrs from the field
(it's all in his book!)

Apparently she really doesn't like James and cars make her sick.

Maybe Jason Dawe decided to visit his old chums at TG Studios one day and got a bit peckish ...?

TeeGee does not like cars, James or the studio so she wasn't really very happy being in the series.

She is Hammonds dog and lives with him at Hamelot with him.images/smilies/wink.gif

I like to imagine that TG is running around in a field with TG Stuntman in a country where all bad TopGear ideas go to live out the rest of their lives in quiet peace. The fake Paddy Hopkirk mini is there as well.
