Created by MGM’s Big Fish Entertainment and broadcast as “America’s Top Dog” on A+E Networks’ A&E channel Stateside, the format sees teams of dogs and their owners tested on their speed, agility and teamwork by completing a series of tasks on a massive obstacle course.
Two Rivers’ option of “Top Dog” was supported by the National Lottery through Screen Scotland’s Broadcast Content Fund. The outfit’s creative team includes head of factual Mick McAvoy, former head of factual at STV Productions; head of entertainment Mirella Breda, most recently managing director of Endemol Shine label Initial; former Channel 4 acting head of features Lizi Wootton; ex-head of U.K. factual development at Wall to Wall Media, Lucy Bacon; and head of drama Marcus Wilson, who came to Two Rivers from scripted indie Fifty Fathoms Productions.
