Meet Lucky
Lucky is a former shelter dog lucky enough to star in an episode of Animal Planet’s “Underdog to Wonderdog.”
In the show, a team of doggie makeover artists rescues a shelter dog, trains it, grooms it, finds it a loving home and builds it its very own doghouse.
Host Ryan Smith is also the host of a TV commentary show in New York. He is an attorney and volunteers for family literacy.
Dog trainer Andrea Arden has written five books and also writes magazine columns about dog training.
Ali McLennan started grooming dogs as a part-time job to support her acting career, but loved it so much that it became a full-time job. She still acts, too.
David Leon, the show’s doghouse carpenter, owns a home improvement company.
