Fortunately, even cat ladies will like “Inside the Mind of a Dog,” which has an abundance of furry charm and retrieves a kennel’s worth of information from those sniffing around the cutting edge of canine science.

"Inside the Mind of a Dog" delivers on the promises in its title, both stated and implied... it lets us know whether or not dogs truly love humans.

Rated: 4/4

You’ll learn plenty of other things about dogs and how they interact and communicate with humans, and that’s the whole point of this engaging and fascinating doc.

Inside The Mind Of A Dog - 10/10. Dogs are the best! No other pet better than them (in my opinion). This great doc shows our favourite friends as we understand how and why they do and act the way they do. The good boys and girls are as complex and as communicative and expressive as we are. If you’re a dog lover like my self, you will love this doc. Its a great watch to understand the mentality of the species, and also understanding the behavioural habits of the 4 legged angels. A great quick doc!

A moving film that explains and reminds you of what Dogs do and why. It was informative and moving. I recommend it. Saw on Netflix.

It's fine, for kids and adults. It's no frill and facts are sometimes how shall we say, off. But even rudimentary, parents can watch with their kids and that's cool! Final Score: 6.5/10

This was a cute show, but should have been titled, "On the road to becoming a service dog".....I don't feel like it gave much insight into a dog's mind! It was still enjoyable...

This show doesn’t rise to the level of documentary because it is so bereft of facts. The links were tenuous and rather than give insights into canine cognition it was a long-winded explanation of how service dogs are trained. We found interviews with academics so superficial that they were pointless. Satisfactory perhaps for a second grade grasp of science but too unstructured for an audience of any age.
