Episodes
Jimi and Duke
Victoria helps a family of desperate pet owners get their misbehaving dogs Jimi and Duke under control. She meets a couple whose house has been taken over by their two lusty Labradors’ humping, chewing, pulling, fighting, food stealing and running away, and decides the best course of action is a trip to the vet’s for castration.
Penny, Fudge, Mouse, Blue, Cookie, and Toby
Victoria comes to the rescue of Karen Holder’s family and friends, who have taken second place to her six manic dogs who are being fed ice cream and cookies. The animals’ incessant barking and bad behaviour have caused the household’s visitors dwindle over the years and now the family is under the trheat of eviction. Meanwhile, Karen’s son Shaun is becoming the butt of his school friends’ jokes because of the pet hairs covering his clothes.
Teddy Pom Pom
Pomeranian Teddy and Pekingese Prince Louis are a vicious biting duo that defend their home and the marital bed, biting anyone who dares to cross their path. Victoria tries to discipline two tiny canines who attack anyone who comes near them, with the man of the house getting bitten every night as he attempts to get into bed. Terrible behaviour has left the owners fearing their pets may be in line for a visit from the local dog warden with an order for their destruction.
Pongo
Victoria Stillwell brings her expertise to bear on Pongo, a Dalmatian who thinks he owns the house and has numerous behavioural problems, least of which is his penchant for stealing everything in sight – including the family’s beer. The pooch has claimed the sofa as his own, guards his space furiously and bites anyone who dares challenge him.
Lilly
Lily the barking Bichon has a big attitude and a fierce hatred of the mailman. Victoria comes to the aid of a couple who are on the verge of breaking up because of their attention-seeking bichon frise, which uses the whole house as a toilet and gives its owners endless sleepless nights. She realises the problem stems from the husband and wife’s different attitudes toward the pesky pooch.
Diesel the Husky
Victoria tries to tame the wild ways of Siberian husky that is tearing his owners’ relationship apart. Nine-month old Diesel’s initial playfulness has turned into dangerous aggression, biting and mauling. Victoria is forced into drastic action in a bid to prevent the wolf-like canine from being turned out of the house
