An evening of glamour and Hollywood flair is sure to captivate audiences as the inaugural BEVERLY HILLS DOG SHOW PRESENTED BY PURINA premieres on USA Network on Sunday, April 16 at 8/7c. Showcasing some of the most premiere pups of the West Coast, the dog-friendly red carpet will bring together celebrities, fashion and a Best-in-Show unlike any other!

The broadcast will feature Olympic medalists Johnny Weir and Tara Lipinski as correspondents on the show's red carpet. The competition, which is co-hosted by legendary dog show judge David Frei and actor John O'Hurley, will also include sports icon Mary Carillo reporting from the judging ring and Lisa Vanderpump ("The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills") presenting the Best in Show award.

About the BEVERLY HILLS DOG SHOW PRESENTED BY PURINA Over 1,000 dogs from more than 150 eligible breeds will compete in the BEVERLY HILLS DOG SHOW PRESENTED BY PURINA.
