Confessions: Animal Hoarding

—In many cases, animal hoarding goes unaddressed until it becomes a crime. This docu-reality series takes an unflinching look at the compulsive need to possess and control an unmanageable number of animals, the people and pets affected, and the challenges of confronting this psychological condition. The series also provides an opportunity for family members and friends to help their loved ones recognize the root of their issues by coordinating interventions with psychologists, animal welfare experts, veterinarians and others.
