POOCH PERFECT AXED BY BBC AFTER ONE SERIES

The dog grooming competition show will not be returning to BBC One following its first series which aired earlier this year.

The eight-part series saw Britain’s hairiest hounds get a makeover on the hunt for Britain’s best dog groomer. Sixteen professionals competed to see who can transform them into the smartest pooches in the land.

16 professional dog groomers from around the country, who battled to create incredible transformations of beloved family pets. They competed to be crowned the nation’s Top Dog Groomer and win The Golden Stanley trophy.

A BBC spokesperson told Metro: "Pooch Perfect brought plenty of light relief to viewers during lockdown. Whilst the show won’t be returning, we’d like to thank Sheridan, the judges, animal experts, groomers and pet owners plus Beyond Productions for bringing such joy when we needed it most."
