I think I shouldn't start with this, but...i sometimes look at how people rate titles in percentage, almost never a documentary just the ones I think of being divisive, and for some reason I looked it up here, I still don't believe people gave this 1...I really would like to know why, maybe they are cats raised to hate or fear dogs..no, just monsters...
So, the movie, difficult subject, needs 10 seasons 11 episodes a season and by the end at least half again, revised what changed and half new information. Focusing on one dog one story would not be sufficient, styles of different videos hard to compose together, feels like nothing new, a safe choice, a tv documentary of the 90s with some higher quality shots. The title isn't exactly proper for it, I can understand how it overlaps, I also was expecting something else. It is always great to see dogs, people who love them, them working together, like I mentioned before, please expect more from yourselves and explore their world broader, as new information, creativity and style etc. Goes it is not better than a 5, but it's theme is always 11 for me.

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.

Inside the Mind of a Dog is a captivating documentary that delves into the fascinating world of canine cognition and emotion. It offers a blend of scientific insights and heartwarming moments, making it an engaging watch for dog lovers and anyone curious about the minds of our furry companions.
The film excels in presenting complex scientific concepts in a way that's easy to understand. Through interviews with experts in animal behavior and psychology, viewers gain a deeper appreciation for the intelligence and emotional depth of dogs. The use of slow-motion footage and close-up shots beautifully captures the nuances of dog behavior, allowing us to see the world through their eyes.
One of the highlights of the documentary is its exploration of the bond between dogs and humans. The film effectively shows how this relationship has evolved over time and what it means for both species. Personal stories from dog owners add an emotional layer to the scientific narrative, making the film both informative and touching.
However, the documentary does have some pacing issues. At times, it lingers too long on certain points, which can make the middle section feel a bit slow. Additionally, while the film is comprehensive, some viewers might find it lacking in groundbreaking revelations if they're already familiar with the subject matter.
Overall, Inside the Mind of a Dog is a well-crafted documentary that provides valuable insights into the lives of dogs. It's an eye-opening experience that will leave you with a greater understanding and appreciation for your canine companion. For its blend of science and sentiment, it earns a solid 8 out of 10 stars.

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.

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.

The title and description of the film made me think this would be an actual documentary about dogs psychology, but it is not as much.
This document fully focuses on what a training of a dog looks like, a dog that is supposed to end up as a companion for people who have some sort of disabilities.
The document does not do anything else, to be honest, and in the end I left it behind me without learning anything I would not know already about dogs.
I can not help but feel a bit disappointed. The document is cute, but it feels like a missed opportunity for something much more interesting and complex.

A documentary on the thought processes, intelligence and personalities of dogs, examining their history and relationship with wolves, their domestication and uses in helping people. In particular, we see how dogs are selected and trained to be service dogs.
An interesting look into what makes man's best friend tick. Some decent insights, including looking back on dog's descent from wolves, domestication and breeding and how these shaped their personalities and uses.
The coverage of the selection and training to be service dogs was very interesting and ultimately quite emotional as we see the dogs get placed with various people with different issues, requiring dogs of varying personalities and abilities.
Not quite as profound as I was expecting though. I was expecting some major breakthroughs to be revealed but, unless you're unaware that dogs can be trained to help out humans, a lot of the stuff is hardly revolutionary.
Still, very interesting and who doesn't like to see footage of cute doggies living their best lives!
