I've only seen one episode. It does seem like the guy genuinely loves those dogs and is willing to go above and beyond to help them. I have to admire that.

That said, I'm not a fan of Pit Bulls, either. I've met a couple very sweet, very friendly ones, but I would never trust them and I wouldn't want to live next door to one.
Where the show goes wrong, I think, is that it seems to portray Pits as big, sweet, lovable babies and doesn't address the responsibility and caution necessary for owning one. Maybe they have addressed that in other episodes - I don't know - but from what I saw, it seemed like the message could be a little bit dangerous. I wouldn't like a show that portrayed GSDs that way... I sure don't think it's a good idea to portray Pits in that light!
