Dog lovers and non-dog lovers alike will love this film. 

When I first saw the trailer for the movie Dog Days, my first thought was the fact that every dog-lover in the world will truly fall in love with this movie.  I mean, come on… we see these adorable, fluffy dogs; loving on their human counterparts in ways that only dog lovers truly understand and appreciate, right?   However, I can honestly tell you that dog-lovers and non-dog lovers alike will love this film for so many reasons.

The movie Dog Days brings about a human element that far transcends beyond the “must love dogs” narrative. It’s hilarious, real, and even raw at times and takes its viewers reach emotions few other comedies take you to.  You’ll find some recurring themes of human connection and self-reflection as this eclectic group of characters deal with their careers, friendships, family struggles, dating adventures and just daily life – all while realizing how their canine counterparts have the power to change their lives in ways they couldn’t imagine.
