From the first show I was hooked. Down to earth, gritty and raw play on your emotions. To see our veterans receiving well needed help, while helping wolves is so very worth watching. Looking forward to more shows. This is my top show to watch. Introduced it to many friends and they are just as impressed.

This programme centres on a rescue centre staffed by veterans, many of whom are sent there to help with psychological / coping issues after their service. The series follows the work they dog with the dogs, the dogs and the rescues.

Most of the animals in the shelter are wolf-dogs - not wolves. They only have about two wolves. The wolf-dogs are quite a high dog content so are very friendly and are quite sociable. They look more like huskies than wolves.

The show is well produced and the content interesting. You get to learn about the stories behind many human and dog characters and get to see how the centre is run. It is run very well and lets the dogs be dogs.

The narration is a bit basic and is aimed at people who don't understand dog behaviour. For example, they play up an injured and bored wolf-dogs aggression, even though his tail is wagging, and then act shocked when he is all friendly and happy after having his injuries treated and is released into a pen with a companion and lots of stimulation ! But considering how most shows overly heap on the drama - this one isn't too bad. It tends to stay factual for the most part.

I recommend this for anyone who likes dogs or animal rescue shows in general.

This show is great. Love the information on the wolves. Also gives me better understanding of what our vets go through. Would love to see more.

This is a very well done show about both the mistreated wolf dogs and the returning soldiers both needing each other to heal. The understanding that Matt and Lorin have for both the animals and the men is so real and you can see the effect it has on the soldiers as they begin to pick up their lives. I look forward to seeing it each week (although I cry at least once per episode!). I would highly, highly recommend this show to anyone who loves animals and our returning veterans. You will be in awe of the relationship that they develop.

I absolutely love this show! It's the best thing on animal planet since pit bulls and paroles! I hope they make many many more seasons!

One of the best animals shows plus help for veterans on TV not being renewed or given a second chance> How many people are interested in catfish fishing or looking for bigfoot? Get real. Give us a show that is insightful with good people trying to help animals.

I loved this show!!! I hope there is a second season! Save the wolves
