Pooch Perfect is a dog grooming reality competition television program created by Seven Studios UK (now Beyond Productions UK) and first broadcast on the Seven Network in Australia. The program is hosted by Rebel Wilson,[1] and began airing on 27 February 2020.[2] The series features ten professional dog stylists competing in a series of themed challenges which sees the transformation of beloved pets, with a judging panel including international styling experts Amber Lewin and Colin Taylor determining the winner of $100,000 in prize money.[3][4] The title is a play-on-words of the film Pitch Perfect, in which Wilson starred.
Despite the high profile of host Wilson and significant promotion by Seven prior to broadcast, the show struggled in the ratings,[5] and the series was absent at Seven's upfronts for 2021.[6] Despite this, local adaptations of the show aired in the United Kingdom and the United States in 2021, with Wilson reprising her role as host for the latter version.[7]
