Henry is a Weimeraner who rules the roost and even dictates what clothes his owners can wear! He's grown from an adorable puppy into a huge great bully of a dog, and is seriously out of control. Maggie is a Staffie with a murderous streak. If it moves, she'll go for it! Her owners are so worried that if she attacks again she may have to be put down. Can Maggie be cured of her psychotic behaviour? Flake the Jack Russell is charged with serial peeing and has been called an embarrassment on a leash. Can tough-talking Mick really turn Flake into an army-standard sniffer dog?
Fudge is a spoilt and overweight Labrador charged with an unhealthy love interest in his special teddy! Perhaps a session on the Dog Borstal therapist's couch is called for? Boxer Zebedee may look adorable, but he's the canine equivalent of a teenage lay-about. He likes to do things his own way and hates being told what to do. If he were able to talk, he'd be most likely to say: "It's not fair, no-one understands me!" And finally, meet Henry, a small Jack Russell with a very big temper. Isn't it always the way?!? Will one week in Borstal be long enough to reform him?
Buster is a Mongrel who goes ballistic whenever he sees a bus! Which makes a simple walk down the high street a bit of an ordeal... Homer is a Golden Retriever who flatly refuses to go for walkies. Perhaps he is too busy thinking. Will Homer be walking the walk by the end of the week, or will his trainer still just be talking the talk? Despite that butter-wouldn't-melt hangdog expression, Weimeraner Louis is a bully whose owners haven’t been able to sleep in the same bed since he moved in. Is there room in the relationship for all three?
Delivery people, beware! White German Shepherd Rio will go for anyone who knocks on the front door. His owner, Pav, has had enough, but can a week at Dog Borstal cure Rio of his irrational behaviour? Amber, a handsome looking Rhodesian Ridgeback, has a bark that's worse than her, well, everything! Things have got so bad her owners are threatened with eviction. Amber is in the last chance saloon. Saving the best (or should that be worst?) until last, feisty Yorkshire Terriers Duplo and Abbie are the scourge of their cul-de-sac. They are jointly charged with aggressive behaviour on the streets. This terrible twosome could provide the biggest challenge yet for the Dog Borstal team...
Meet the first group of canine criminals to spend a week in Dog Borstal: Crumpet, a slightly obese Beagle; Vinney, a disgruntled old show-dog; and Dave, an out-of-control Rottweiler.
Next up for a bit of tough love are three hounds that need leading down the straight and narrow: Gunner, a male Staffie; George, a massively boisterous Labrador; and Charlie, a Jack Russell cross.
The trainers may have their work cut out showing these dogs new tricks: Harvey, a hyperactive Chihuahua; Buddy and Bruno, a couple of eating machines; and Skye, an aggressive Great Dane.
These doggie inmates face one week of corrective canine training: Tizzy, a disobedient Dear Hound; Lexi, an English Bull Terrier who rules the roost; and George, an aggressive Labrador.
Three more hounds have been sent down: Saffy, a pintsized Pug who’s not so pretty in pink; Dillon, an overprotective Shitzu; and Vaider, an out-of-control Boxer
The next group of mutts banged up in Dog Borstal are: Lilly, a thieving Cocker Spaniel; Ralphy, a hysterical Lurcher; and Penny, a not-so-neighbourly Alsatian.
The not-so-fantastic four under lock and key are: Merlin, an 11-stone Newfoundland; Sally and Troy, partners in canine crime; and Bella, an attention-seeking Collie cross.
Meet the next growling gang: Inji and Bertie, the delinquent double act; Woody, an oversexed Poodle; and Toy Poodle Tuppence, who’s getting too big for his boots.
These three canine criminals have been sent down: Bis, an out-of-control Australian Kelpie; Rocky, a heavyweight Rottweiler; and Ellie, a hyperactive Border Collie.
These four hounds are in the slammer: Ruff and Tumble, a couple of ASBO Chihuahuas; Leo, a failed search dog; and Buddy, an abusive rescue dog.
The final three inmates are: Otto, the 'dogfather'; Alfie, a conniving Collie Cross; and Scampi, who's battered his owner into submission.
Scooby, a three year-old female Rottweiler who acts like a one-dog gang terrorising her neighbourhood; a one year-old English Bull Terrier called Leo who's so good at escaping from places his owner's nicknamed him 'Steve McQueen'; and food junkie Cocker Spaniel called Joe who howls the house down if he isn't given enough sweet treats to satisfy his vast appetite.
Megan and Dennis, two cute Border Terriers that are developing a taste for the flesh of local pet bunny rabbits; noble-looking Braccho Italiano called Chicho, who refuses to obey any of his owner's orders; and Alfie, a rescued Border Collie Cross who adores his lady owner but who attacks and intimidates any men who cross his path - even his owner's sons.
Jimmy Chew the Springer Spaniel, who's turned his owners' beautiful home into his own personal lavatory; Hamish, the mean and aggressive Standard Schnauzer, who's attacked ponies, ransacked a chicken coop and scared the living daylights out of a flock of sheep; and Joe Jnr the Bull Mastiff Cross, who's a street fighting hound who'll drag his owner along the floor in order to get to another dog and fight with them.
Some of the worst dogs in Britain come face to face with three trainers, who attempt to knock the dogs and their owners into shape with a strong dose of tough love and hard discipline. Tank is a cold-hearted, abusive English Bull Terrier with an eye for anyone but his owner. Loala is a snarling, barking Rhodesian Ridgeback cross who's always spoiling for a fight, and Benson isn't so much Great Dane as great big wuss.
Some of the worst dogs in Britain come face to face with three trainers, who attempt to knock the dogs and their owners into shape with a strong dose of tough love and hard discipline. In this episode, trainers take on a Parson Russell Terrier who is a hyper-manic sex addict, a Staffordshire cross who behaves like a gangster, and a Shar-pei with a violent temper.
This week's Dog Borstal inmates are bad and big. There's a seriously nasty pint-sized Patterdale Terrier called Muttley for Robert Alleyne to tackle, and a blond Alsatian called Carla who's the biggest bitch on the block for trainer Lynne Davies. Can the team bring these hell-hounds back into line?
This week is Dog Borstal's toughest and most trying intake so far, as we meet out-of-control canines Casper, Tess and Wilson. There's trouble, tears and heartbreak on the road to reform and one owner has to face up to her worst fears...
Trainers Mic Martin, Robert Alleyne and Lynne Davies face another three misbehaving mutts this week. One Borstal inmate has almost killed his owner, another is close to driving his owners apart, and the third's ball fetish is keeping her owner off the street. Can our experts bring them to heel?
