A rescue dog named Lucky and his owner, Kris Kiser, will appear this season on the Emmy Award-winning “Lucky Dog” show that airs Saturday mornings on CBS as a part of the ‘CBS Dream Team, It’s Epic’ block of programming.
The first episode, featuring a dog named Kyrie, aired on November 7. Additional episodes are scheduled to run on the following dates: January 23 (featuring Darby), February 13 (featuring Maggie), March 12 (featuring Odie), April 9 (featuring Scarlett), and May 7 (featuring Dottie). In the May 7th episode, an older shelter dog named Dottie is adopted by Kiser and joins him and Lucky at home in Virginia. All dates are tentative and subject to change. An additional “best of” episode featuring TurfMutt and Kiser will air at a later date.
The CBS show, “Lucky Dog,” follows animal trainer Brandon McMillan, who rescues hard-to-love, out-of-control, untrained and unadoptable dogs. McMillan turns these pooches into perfect pets. In the end, a lucky family will adopt an even luckier dog, making each episode an adoption story that warms the heart.
Mr. Kiser, President and CEO of the Outdoor Power Equipment Institute (OPEI), and his adopted dog Lucky, the “TurfMutt,” are on a mission to educate viewers on ways to create environmentally–responsible living landscapes that families and pets can enjoy.
