Going To The Dogs

January marks the start of a new season on the dog show circuit. Pomeranian breeder, Margaret, puts all bets on her prized stud Buzz. Ann takes Quincy, an aggressive Schnauzer, for a show trim. And for top professional handler Allison, it's the beginning of another potentially lucrative year in the ring.

Ann wants a champion show dog, but Schnauzer Quincy's anger gets in the way. Ann hires Lynn, an Animal Energy Healer. Meanwhile, newcomer Loraine realizes she may need as much training as her beloved Golden Retriever Quincy before they can enter the ring. She looks to pro-handler, Graeme, for help.

A dozen breeders and their champion show dogs take part in a major photo shoot for a dog food manufacturer.

Quincy the Schnauzer is one point away from his championship title. Energy Healer, Lynn, has done her best with him, now she sets to work on owner Ann. Pomeranian breeder, John, is desperate to get back in the ring four months after two heart attacks and a triple bypass. Pro-handler Allison enlists her boyfriend's help to handle one of her dogs in Best in Show.

It's summer and the dog shows go outdoors. Dachshund handler, David, struggles to get little Shooter the recognition he feels he deserves. Back at his trailer, John suffers a fall. Beagle breeder Jen may have to deliver a litter of pups on her own. And eccentric Corgi breeder Delilah reads her letters from the Queen.

Delilah gets serious about showing dogs and sets out on the circuit in a refurbished trailer with daughter, Muffy. Meanwhile, pro-handler Graeme competes for the attention of Loraine's spoiled Golden Retriever, Quincy. When not showing dogs, Graeme runs a pet cremation service.
