Film re- pandemic, the series consists of an epic, cross-continental adventure featuring twelve teams of dogs and their humans. In each locale, the human and dog duos will face challenges designed in concert with a team of accredited veterinarians and certified dog experts that also accompany the group. At stake is a monetary prize of $500,00 for the winning duo, with $250,000 going towards the animal charity of their choice. 

The show is addictive and it is so much fun to watch the contestants and the love they have for their pups. It is also extraordinary to watch what they all can accomplish in a safe and entertaining way.
