Plots(1)

Well, you wouldn't see that at Crufts... This is America's Groom Expo, where poodles are crimped, pimped and dyed to compete in this multi-million dollar creative styling showdown. This time, though, there's a British entry on this typically big and bold American scene. Su and pet pooch, Dobby, are in Pennsylvania with their sights set on that "top dog" title. With preening inspired by all walks of life and pop culture, from The Incredible Hulk to Sesame Street, from flower gardens to zoo animals, you've never seen anything like the dedication on display here, nor the mind-blowing fur-ball creations. Offering moments of truly oddball comedy, triumphant stories and more dogs than you can shake a stick at, follow one woman's real-life quest to prove that she has the skills and artistic vision to become "top dog" (official distributor synopsis)
