Does your talented pooch have stars in his eyes? Is your parakeet a born performer? Pet Star searches far and wide for the best in outrageous pet tricks.

From rats that play basketball and a flag-raising groundhog to roller-skating birds and a butt-surfing dog (seeing is believing), Pet Star brings extraordinary animals to the center stage where they compete for fame and fortune.

Each week, a talented group of animals will unleash their unique abilities and compete against other gifted pets in front of a live studio audience. Weekly winners will receive $2,500 and a chance to be in the final showdown this summer when all 15 finalists will compete for $25,000 in cash and prizes, and the ultimate pet star will be revealed.

With host Mario Lopez and a gaggle of celebrity judges (former bionic woman Lindsay Wagner, Best in Show judge Fred Willard and Baywatch star Gena Lee Nolin, just to name a few), Pet Star may become your pet's new favorite show!
