Netflix’s ‘Dogs’: All About This Endearing New Docu-series

Animal lovers, brace yourself. Netflix’s Dogs might just be the thing to break your heart — or make it three-times bigger (Grinch-style).

Just yesterday Netflix dropped the first trailer for a beautiful new docu-series called Dogs. Now, it’s basically exactly what its cutely terse title sounds like; it is a show all about the powerful bond between man and canine. However, the trailer teases that Dogs might be something more than your typical adorable YouTube playlist. Netflix’s new series is going to be a six-part docu-series that will span the globe to tell extraordinary stories about the friendship between people and their beloved dogs.

The Dogs trailer introduces us to a Syrian refugee skyping with his pooch, Zeus, who is still stuck in the war-torn country. The man explains to the audience that he’s going to work to get Zeus out. Elsewhere, an Italian man introduces his Golden Retriever Ice as an integral member of his family — so much so that Ice has to be shushed at the dinner table because he’s “talking” over someone else. The trailer also shows us families hoping to pair their disabled daughter with a service dog who can become her best friend and one Japanese woman who considers her pet dog her “daughter.”

Dogs has an all-star line-up of directors including Amy Berg, Roger Ross Williams, Heidi Ewing, Richard Hankin, and T.J. Martin & Daniel Lindsay. The series was developed by Glen Zipper, who serves as co-executive producer with Amy Berg.

Dogs debuts on Netflix on November 16.
