Okay, I loved it...

And I am NOT AFRAID TO SAY IT! Seriously, I can't understand any bad reviews for this episode - Even those who don't like dogs- if you don't get "Mr. Monk and the Dog" then you don't get Adrian Monk. I'm only giving it 9 stars as aspects of the story were a tad weak. However, this is one of those episodes that really showcases Tony Shalhoub's versatility in bringing nuances in out of Monk's character. In truth, its a 4 legged version of "Mr. Monk and the Kid.' Enjoy.
