I actually completely forgot that a dog show won America's Got Talent but Olate Dogs pulled off this trick in Season Seven. With a variety of dogs and a series of high level tricks America really was able to get behind this dog show
Since winning AGT the dog show team of Olate Dogs continues to perform around the country and believe it or not even released a Christmas album

Darci Lynne - Season Twelve
Darci Lynne was yet another twelve year old and a ventrioquist to win America's Got Talent and she did so in season twelve. The ultra talented Darci Lynne was able to sing incredible songs without using her lips and operating a puppet.
Darci Lynne since AGT has sold out shows across North America and would place second in America's Got Talent: Champions Edition. Considering she just turned fifteen expect great things from this young lady in the future

Kodi Lee
Kodi Lee - Season Fourteen
Kodi Lee is a singer and piano player who also happens to be blind and autistic. With his powerful voice and his incredible back story it was no surprise that this young man would go on to win America's Got Talent season fourteen.
Since this was the latest season of AGT we do not yet know what fortunes Kodi has been up to but I am sure he is singing somewhere bringing joy to whoever is listening
