"Dog The Bounty Hunter" may be no more, but CMT has a new home for everyone's favorite Dog, Duane Chapman.

CMT has officially ordered 10 episodes of of the unscripted "DOG," set to focus on Dog and Beth Chapman’s "journey into the American heartland" as they work to aid other bail bondsmen and bounty hunters in their day-to-day struggles to catch fugitives.

"This series is a game changer for CMT,” Jayson Dinsmore, EVP of Development and Programming at CMT, said. “We were aggressive in our pursuit of a show featuring Dog and Beth, one of the most bankable teams in television history. We couldn't be happier to partner with Electus and Dog and Beth as they move forward on the next chapter.”

"DOG" is slated for a spring/summer 2013 premiere date.
