The Big Pet Project (2025–…)

Ireland's most extraordinary pets will be showcased in The Big Pet Project - Saturdays on RTÉ One at 5.15pm and streaming now on RTÉ Player.

From surfing dogs to painting ponies and goal-scoring turtles, The Big Pet Project is crammed full of the weirdest, wackiest and most talented pets and animals. Pet lovers Demi Oviawe and Adam Beales jump in their Pet Mobile and travel across Ireland to meet the nation's most pet-obsessed people and learn all about their pets.

We meet more than 70 animals including axolotls in Belfast, turtles in Tipperary, hawks in Wicklow, pygmy goats in Donegal, a giant millipede in Galway and a massive pig in Dublin! So, if you love pets and animals jump into the chaos because this is the show for you!
