This Will Stay With You for Life
I knew going into this documentary that it was going to be a tough one to get through based on the content. I had no idea exactly how much it would make me sad and angry and guilty but then also passionate about this cause.

The three sections of this documentary explore owners of dogs which frighten and injure people, the intense grief owners may feel when they lose a beloved pet, and the service industry devoted to dealing with the MILLIONS of dogs that...
