This global odyssey follows the pawprints of man’s best friend, in all their shapes and sizes, and investigates the profound effects canines have on our daily lives.
We Don’t Deserve Dogs explores the deep connection we share with our oldest companion. Through a series of vignettes from the most remote corners of the world, it probes the wildly varied yet captivatingly earnest connections humans have to their dogs. From helping Uganda war victims with PTSD, to herding sheep in the wooded foothills of Romania, We Don’t Deserve Dogs illuminates the profound loyalty between humans and their beloved pets.
