There’s chaos, confusion, tears and laughter as those British families take the life-changing decision to adopt a young dog.
Only a newborn baby is more demanding, exhausting and expensive than a puppy, yet many families rush into dog ownership with very little thought. As a result, 30% of dogs were abandoned in the first three months of 2013. This emotional multipart documentary follows new doggie parents during their first year together. From super-cute cuddling on the sofa and playing ball in the park, to rain-soaked walks and toilet accidents, the real-life stories are backed up by fascinating factual content explaining the science of puppy development and training. A cautionary tale, it educates and ultimately celebrates the joy that puppies bring to millions of people.
