ANIMAL PLANET
For adults and kids alike, Halloween's the best time to dress up in crazy costumes of superheroes and alter-egos. But imagine a day when dog lovers unleash their creativity and obsession on the world; a day where dogs are dressed as King Tut, as a plane, and even as Playgirls - or in this case, 'Play-grrls' - complete with custom-made blonde dog-wigs.

| Unleashed: A Dogumentary takes viewers beyond the parade into the heart of the nation that has clearly gone to the dogs. The programme premieres on Sun, Nov 23 at 7pm on TrueVisions UBC 51. |
This is California's big dog parade, in Santa Barbara.
This month, Animal Planet takes viewers behind the scenes at this zany showdown where dog-owners dream up their theatrical floats and costumes in Unleashed: A Dogumentary.
Contenders compete for prizes ranging from luxurious getaways to free dog food - but mostly it's about bizarre bragging rights, boundless creativity, and the extraordinary kinship between people and their dogs.
Unleashed: A Dogumentary premieres Sun, Nov 23 at 7pm and repeats Nov 30 at 1pm on Animal Planet.
Through the stories of a few devoted competitors, Unleashed: A Dogumentary reveals a commitment that extends far beyond the time and money poured into this event.
For many, the dedication they have for their beloved pets began when they rescued their pup from a shelter or an abusive owner, while others nurse their disabled dogs, caring for them as they would a relative. One particularly touching story is of a woman and her paraplegic pug who tools around on custom-made wheels.
In Unleashed: A Dogumentary, each relationship featured is unique, intense and full of surprises.
