Anyone else watch Dogs in the City?

I'm always an episode behind (haven't watched last night's yet) but the first two episodes seemed pretty OK. There was one dog that the owner admitted to bopping the dog with a rolled up newspaper and the trainer just gave him the side eye, but never addressed it, and that rubbed me the wrong way.

But there are some truly zany pet owners out there! My family thinks I'm nuts because B has his own room, is forced to wear a life jacket near water and travels with us 90% of the time. That and my collection of Scottie items... but that's not nearly as bad as the people who really do treat their dogs better than their kids. (One lady had the temperature set specifically for her dog, the baby had to wear a sweater. )

Just wondering if anyone else has started watching this show. While he seems to be miles ahead of the Dog Whisperer, I think the show could do a better job explaining some of the issues.
What do the rest of the Pesties think?

I caught part of the episode that was on last night. At one point he was telling some lady that she needed to rehome one of her dogs. I wanted to see how it ended, to see if she did rehome, but I got distracted and missed the end. Anyone know how it ended?

I think her ex-boyfriend agreed to take one of the dogs.

We watched the first couple episodes and then forgot about it. It's not bad, the model agency lady in the first episode was kind of an asshole at first, but it seems like she came around. I felt bad for the dog of the newly married couple that had always slept with his guy and now was being forced to sleep elsewhere because of the wife. I don't think I would have married someone who didn't want the dog in the bed!

Oh, good! I can't imagine being in that situation, she seemed so overwhelmed. Not good for anyone.
