Dentro da Mente de um Cachorro

Inside the Mind of a Dog offers a comprehensive collection of the latest studies and understanding into our fury friends' personalities, intelligence, and behaviors. This documentary develops in a way that is both entertaining and compelling.

Rob Lowe narrates a series of stories and interviews, from the history of canines to ongoing research, intertwined with the main story of the documentary - the development of service dogs from puppyhood to when they are graduated. Although I knew most of the recent research which was discussed, I did learn something, and believe most people will also find something new to take away. The connection between service dog and recipient is one that will make most viewers teary eyed.

This documentary is best watched with your dog(s) by your side.

A very informative (albeit not too heavy on the science - which I would have preferred) look into the absolutely the most accepting life form to have evolved on this planet.

From how they have evolved and how our training methods have evolved wot make the best use of their abilities and how we could do better to be better friends to our best friends, this documentary looks into a bit of everything that is Dog.

Whether you love dogs, are afraid of them, are unsure about them, this will be a worthy watch that will help us understand what makes these bundles of delight so successful at playing our heartstrings.

There is no doubt the documentary was interesting and did give a great insight into dogs and how they have evolved from predatory wolves to man's best friend. There was a lot of how guide/service dogs are selected and trained and as it was presented it was good. However I don't know if I saw an advert or a trailer that led me to believe it would be something else but as another review stated exactly the same disappointment I'm sure I must have. I thought it was going to be a documentary helping me explain why my dog does particular things and how I can communicate better with him. So for example it said dogs had developed the ability to look at their owners with "puppy eyes" by showing the whites of their eyes. But never expanded on why they would do this, what they were hoping to achieve and what they were trying to communicate. It said a service dog that barked wouldn't pass the test because restaurants wouldn't stand for it but never explained what different types of barking meant and how to interpret them to know my dog better. It was an interesting documentary if you want to know how service dogs are trained but not if you want to know if your dog's trying to tell you something.

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.

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.
