Dog Whisperer

Season 8

Episode 5: Homeboys and Hounds

Cesar helps two former gang members and a young man arrested once for DUI who have found a new path in life through Homeboy Industries — an outreach program designed to break the cycle of gang violence — but who have problem dogs at home. Ray Moreno named his blue-nosed pit bull Monster, and the dog lives up to its name by jumping up on guests and stealing food off the dinner table. Erik Galindo's three pit bulls — a high-energy male named Smokey, and two females, Roxie and Hazel — are very aggressive and fight constantly. And Sergio Ahumada's Maltese, Shaggy, is creating messy problems for the whole family at home while also nipping and biting at other people and dogs in the neighborhood.
