The ratings hit will continue for series seven and eight with a whopping 32 new episodes on the way.
Its double recommission also means the show will reach its 100th episode milestone.
Presented by dog trainer Graeme Hall, he's tasked with being the Supernanny of the dog world.
The 58-year-old will "restore dog and human relationships" in the new series and put a stop to disobedient behaviour with participants' furry companions.

Speaking about returning to the show, Graeme said: “I’m delighted we’ve hit the milestone of 100 episodes commissioned of the UK show. Time flies!
"300 cases (with up to six dogs per case) means SO many dogs and people helped along the way (which makes Yours Truly very happy).
"As long as the viewers love watching the show, we’ll love making it for you. So, here’s to the next 100, I say… woof woof!!”
Dogs Behaving (Very) Badly first launched on Channel 5 back in 2019 and quickly became a fan-favourite.

Vet Dr. Rachel Siu reveals the 5 dogs she'd never own
By Marsha O'Mahony
HUSKY
Beautiful, intelligent, and super-active, like a Border Collie, a Husky is a working dog and likes to keep busy.
If you lead a sedentary life, then this guy is not for you, and you are not for him.
It should be no surprise that Huskies love the cold - look at that coat of fur. So, living in 110 degrees in Texas is pretty grim for these dogs.
DACHSHUND
Adorable, cute, funny, and they can be very expensive.
The basic physiology of these sausage dogs does them no favours. "Because of their long backs, they’re really prone to intervertebral disc disease," said Dr. Rachel.
You would be wise to keep a pot of money aside just in case because back surgery is likely to be expensive.
GREAT DANE
These lolloping, loving, and gregarious dogs are "goofballs."
But they have short lifespans, developing health issues early on in life. Prepare yourself for heartbreak.
DOODLE
These are the current "it" dog, they are everywhere. They can be mixed with pretty much any other breed.
Their popularity has soared in recent years, with pet owners attracted to their low maintenance and hypoallergenic qualities.
But this couldn’t be further from the truth, said our vet.
"These dogs are often mixed with shedding dogs so they do shed and they also need grooming very frequently," she wrote.
Their temperament is unpredictable and she has seen some that are wonderful to work with and others who have serious behavioral problems.
BULLDOGS
These guys are adorable but they have serious respiratory problems. Genetics are not on the side of any brachycephalic dog.
"I just would not own them," she said. "They’re just not a healthy breed. They struggle to breathe with their smooshed faces."
Like the Dachshund, they also suffer from intervertebral disc disease.
