Catwalk Dogs (ITV-1 2007, Kris Marshall, Georgia MacKenzie)
Romantic comedy drama Catwalk Dogs sees the relationship between Sally and Michael fall apart following a pair of miscarriages. Michael buys Sally a terrier puppy which sparks off an interest in dog shows where she meets professional trainer Guy. Sally moves in with Guy leaving the dog with Michael who decides the best way to win her back is by beating her at her own game.
A nicely funny one-off from Simon Nye, sad at times but the humour really picks up once Michael gets involved with a dog training club. The only let down is some non necessary swearing.
