Pets are often treated by their owners as part of the family (as they should be). Most dog owners in specific take great pride in making sure their dogs are well cared for. This of course includes a visit to a groomer every so often. Many people have made careers out of displaying their passion for grooming dogs through some amazing work. Time and time again we have seen competitions for some of the best dog groomers in the world.
Tonight on ABC we will once again have the opportunity to see an array of contestants battle it out to see who is the best dog groomer in the country on Pooch Perfect. The eight-episode series will showcase 10 contestants. They will have to face an all-star panel of celebrity judges that include Lisa Vanderpump, Jorge Bendersky, and Dr. Callie Harris. The winner, in the end, will win a trophy and a giant cash prize. Pooch Perfect is hosted by award-winning actress Rebel Wilson.
