Synopsis
Eight celebrities are given rescue dogs and attempt to use the animals' limited capacity for stimulus-response programming to overcome their natural instincts to attack everything that moves and urinate on everything that doesn't. Though the whole concept is possibly a bit redundant considering none of these shows ever test the core canine talent of bounding up to strangers and attempting to rip the flesh from their bones (called "just being friendly") and the agility stuff can now be done by robots.
Anyway, there's a weekly public elimination vote to decide who's best/worst at teaching predatory animals to jump over ladders and it's all tied up with a campaign to find new owners for mistreated dogs.
This programme has not yet aired. A full review will appear here after broadcast.
