Variety said Thinkfactory was working directly with Dog on pitching the new show. The producers believed it could focus on Dog’s “day-to-day life” and could include his trip to find Brian.

A spokesperson for the reality star told Newsweek Dog was unaware the producers would reveal the pitch to the news. The rep added, "Dog is not spending any time thinking about his next show—his team handles that for him. Instead, he's focused on apprehending a fugitive.” However, they admitted the show had been in the works for months without Dog’s direct involvement.

At the moment, Dog is still down in Florida trying to track down Brian and claims he is getting closer by the day.
