PAMPERED PETS

The Secret World Of Posh Pets, 8pm, ITV

AS A NATION of pet-owners, most of us love to pamper the animals that share our lives. But these days, there is a growing number of frivolous people taking it to extremes, throwing silly sums of money at their pets and creating a booming economy that’s now worth a staggering £6 billion a year. This new, six-part series takes us into the jaw-dropping world of pampered pets, meeting people such as the couple who are planning a £4,000 wedding for their dogs, and Louise (pictured) and Sophie, who sell African pygmy hedgehogs to discerning clients.
