Audition
Pup (or rather, his owner) submitted his audition onto YouTube. The audition consisted of Pup playing the accordion while his owner sang "Jambalaya" while playing the guitar. His audition was strong enough for the judges to send him to the Quarterfinals along with eleven other YouTube Acts.



Quarterfinals
Pup's Quarterfinals performance consisted of Pup playing the accordion while his owner sang "Ghost Riders in the Sky" while playing the guitar. Unfortunately, Pup's strap used to play the accordion snapped early in the performance, forcing his owner to sing and play alone while Pup walked around. Because of this, Piers Morgan buzzed the act. Pup did not receive enough votes to finish in at least fifth place in America's Vote, eliminating him from the competition along with Austin Anderson and Pizza Patt, instead of Maestro Alexander Bui.
