Inside the Mind of a Dog

Inside the Mind of a Dog is a Netflix documentary about the minds of how dogs react and their relations with humans. The documentary is narrated by Rob Lowe and the interesting part is how dogs communicate and sense our emotions. Scientist have done experiments with support from various safe methods to learn the actions of dogs as our pets. I got to say as I was growing up I never wanted to have a pet and as a matter of fact I was afraid of them not till we adopted Spencer. Spencer has changed my mind and the way I think about pets and now he is my best friend. This show taught me several ways to help Spencer overcome any anxiety he may have. Most dogs can understand over 100 words and sleep most of the day but they are always there waiting for us when we get home. This was a great show to give a synapse of a dog's mind. Loved it.

The title and description of the film made me think this would be an actual documentary about dogs psychology, but it is not as much.

This document fully focuses on what a training of a dog looks like, a dog that is supposed to end up as a companion for people who have some sort of disabilities.

The document does not do anything else, to be honest, and in the end I left it behind me without learning anything I would not know already about dogs.

I can not help but feel a bit disappointed. The document is cute, but it feels like a missed opportunity for something much more interesting and complex.

I like dogs, and I absolutely love my pup to death. So I was pretty excited to watch this, thinking it would be an in-depth view into the latest scientific research that is surrounding dogs behavior, psychology, etc. But alas, they only barely scratch the surface on these topics and instead the core of this documentary is to show how service dogs are trained. It's fairly well done, has some heart and decently interesting information but there is nothing groundbreaking or innovative about it. So I was a bit disappointed because of my expectations going in. But if you know before you go, and you like dogs, this is fairly enjoyable.

A documentary on the thought processes, intelligence and personalities of dogs, examining their history and relationship with wolves, their domestication and uses in helping people. In particular, we see how dogs are selected and trained to be service dogs.

An interesting look into what makes man's best friend tick. Some decent insights, including looking back on dog's descent from wolves, domestication and breeding and how these shaped their personalities and uses.

The coverage of the selection and training to be service dogs was very interesting and ultimately quite emotional as we see the dogs get placed with various people with different issues, requiring dogs of varying personalities and abilities.

Not quite as profound as I was expecting though. I was expecting some major breakthroughs to be revealed but, unless you're unaware that dogs can be trained to help out humans, a lot of the stuff is hardly revolutionary.

Still, very interesting and who doesn't like to see footage of cute doggies living their best lives!

I think I shouldn't start with this, but...i sometimes look at how people rate titles in percentage, almost never a documentary just the ones I think of being divisive, and for some reason I looked it up here, I still don't believe people gave this 1...I really would like to know why, maybe they are cats raised to hate or fear dogs..no, just monsters... So, the movie, difficult subject, needs 10 seasons 11 episodes a season and by the end at least half again, revised what changed and half new information. Focusing on one dog one story would not be sufficient, styles of different videos hard to compose together, feels like nothing new, a safe choice, a tv documentary of the 90s with some higher quality shots. The title isn't exactly proper for it, I can understand how it overlaps, I also was expecting something else. It is always great to see dogs, people who love them, them working together, like I mentioned before, please expect more from yourselves and explore their world broader, as new information, creativity and style etc. Goes it is not better than a 5, but it's theme is always 11 for me.
