The programme begins with members of the public taking part in a sponsored 'Wag Walk' organised by the home. We then follow the work of local dog warden, KIM McGARVER, as she collects and transports a stray dog to the home. We meet STEVE HILL, the home's resident animal behaviourist, who works with the more challenging rescue dogs, including Paddy, a large, aggressive Alsatian. We discover that it's not just cats and dogs that need a new home and join Kayla inside the small animal section where she talks to a family about rooming Damson, a lively ferret. In part two we encounter a 150 year-old tortoise which has been abandoned in reception and join Kirstie for feeding time before witnessing activities associated with the 'Cat Cuddle-a-thon'. A sponsored cat cuddling event in which visitors are locked in a cat pen or five hours to raise money for the home.

In this episode, website controller JAN CLARE struggles to get a bunch of lively puppies to sit still for photographs. Meanwhile Ollie's cattery is bursting at the seams with kittens, and over at the kennels an unusual family reunion takes place. Ninety-six year-old, JOHN HOBHOUSE, founder and President of BCDH also pays a visit and reflects on the qualities that make the Home so special. We also catch up with Brandy, the collie with dodgy hips and follow him on visit to a special canine hydrotherapy centre.
