In The Simpsons season 24 episode 8 titled "To Cur With Love," the beloved Simpson family dog, Santa's Little Helper, becomes depressed and starts misbehaving after the arrival of a new greyhound named She's the Fastest at the local dog track. To lift his spirits, the family decides to enroll Santa's Little Helper in an obedience course taught by a charismatic and unconventional dog trainer named Colleen.
Despite initially being hesitant about Colleen's methods, the family soon realizes that she has a unique approach to training dogs that actually works. In fact, Colleen proves to be so effective that she even manages to train Homer to be a more attentive and responsible pet owner.
But as Santa's Little Helper continues to thrive under Colleen's guidance, tensions begin to arise between her and the other dog trainers at the track. They view Colleen's unconventional methods as a threat to the traditional dog training techniques that they have been using for years.
