Product Description

A woman obsessed by dogs fouling her small piece of lawn...Another whose chihuahua is carried off by a hungry pelican...And a dog with a sixth sense...These are only a sampling of the stories captured in this hilarious new film from the maker of the classic CANE TOADS. THE WONDERFUL WORLD OF DOGS explores the myths, the obsessions, and the wide variety of attitudes people harbor towards our four-legged friends by introducing a few of the barkers, bullies and roamers that make up the canine population. Here are mellifluous mutts and obsessive owners, pampered poodles and persecuted mailmen. Here also is the redoubtable Fugly, the most impounded dog in Australian history, whose wandering, sausage-stealing ways have cost his owner thousands in fines. Provocative insights into canine psychology are provided by noted dog experts, including an "All Breeds Judge" and an official "Dog Commentator." A special "dog-cam" provides and unprecedented dog's-eye view of the world. For both dog lovers and dog haters, THE WONDERFUL WORLD OF DOGS is indispensable viewing -- a fascinating and funny view of canines and humans from both sides of the leash.

Customer Reviews

Absolutely sensational!
This is the only dogs-on-TV thing my own dog ever enjoyed. And if you love dogs, you will too! It's hilarious, and it made me cry. It made me believe that Chihuahuas have fascinating interior lives. This is the best dog documentary ever made.
