The Outsiders

A year-old bulldog named Wiggles arrives at Dogtown from a shelter from California with unusual symptoms; he falls frequently and cant control his bowels. Head Veterinarian Mike Dix must determine if Wiggles condition is life threatening, or if he's stable enough to live in a home. Trainer Pat Whitacre faces a different kind of challenge: to transform cocker spaniel-mix Jolene from a painfully shy, fearful dog into a happy, friendly one. Step by step, Pat attempts to socialize Jolene so she has the chance at adoption. Zoey, a Rottweiler/hound mix, suffers from crippling allergies to the environment and to humans. Her family in New York State had tried everything, but no allergy medication worked. At Dogtown, Dr. Mike Dix works on a new plan of attack. As a caregiver at Dogtown, Thomas Foyles feels a connection with the most aggressive dogs like Bones, a Vizsla street dog who was rescued and brought to Dogtown eleven years ago. When he arrived, Bones was known for attacking other dogs, but in the last few years he has mellowed. Now, Thomas believes Bones could live in a home for his last few years. So Bones will undergo an official assessment, to see if his violent tendencies are truly gone.
