Second chances are what life is all about. In case you might have missed it, this amazing documentary series chronicles the successful rehabilitation program of inmates training unwanted dogs for re-introduction or adoption into society. The program highlights both the plight of the offenders and dogs and what both groups must face while trying to change. The unlikely union brings out a change in character for both the prisoners and the pups.
The results are life changing for the offender, the dog and the recipient. Because of this ground breaking program dogs and inmates now have a second chance. With over 6 million dogs abandoned in the U.S every year and over 2.2 million criminals in the US behind bars, this program was the first to offer both groups a chance to change their lives for the better.
Castaways is the program that gives these second chances.
