What profession requires show business acumen, a knack for genetic manipulation, the honed instincts of a seasoned corporate raider and hairdressing skills? Welcome to the world of dog breeders.
BREEDER OF THE PACK, a 13 x 30 documentary series follows the stories of interesting and opinionated people who populate the dog world, and the passionate lengths they go to propagate and defend their desirable pooches.
Offbeat and endearing, each episode of this stylish series focuses on one breeder and their canine of choice. From “leasing a bitch”, to posing for paparazzi, we follow these devoted dog lovers on their quest to conquer the show competition, protect critically sick pups, or go toe to toe with a life-long foe.

The Chef’s Domain is an entertaining eight-part culinary adventure series that follows the journey of one exceptional chef per episode who acts as guide and advocate of the suppliers who provide them with local bounty. Chefs are passionate about two aspects of their profession – how they cook and the ingredients they use. This landmark series shows, for the first time, how the relationship between chef and supplier is revolutionizing what we eat. With only days leading up to an event where these ingredients will be featured, viewers will be privy to the Chef’s favourite (and secret) sources of their great cooking. Ultimately, the chef must create an outstanding meal with the ingredients they have collected.
Renowned and award-winning author James Chatto – who writes about food, wine and restaurants for Toronto Life magazine –narrates the series.
