Best in Show, hosted by Mimi Dybs, is a conversation with massive animal lovers about the ways their lives and work are influenced by the animals around them. This isn't a show about pet care tips. It’s an open, honest look at the turning points, the tough seasons, and the quiet moments that make up a life, because our pets are often right there beside us through the moments that shape us.
No rigid interview scripts or polished PR answers here. Just real, funny, and sometimes emotional conversations that go places nobody planned.
