The new arrival cannot paint over the cracks in the relationship and in fact widens them when Sally enters him a local dog show. Archie wins. Michael scoffs. Sally leaves. But she has nowhere to go until dog breeder, Guy (Dominic Rowan), offers to let her stay at a cottage on his farm.
The triangle is established as Guy and Sally become romantically linked. Jealous Michael tries to win back Sally's affection by taking a hitherto non apparent interest in Archie and decides to "show" the dog himself. Sally has been given a massive Rottweiler by Guy and the rivalry is set as Sally and Michael go head to head with their dogs, right the way through to the Best in Show at Crufts.
Throw in Guy's protective and jealous mother, a good deal of preening and posturing - some of it by the canines - and an unhealthy dollop of doggy espionage and you have Catwalk Dogs.
