📺Cure it with Movies/Books: Dogs

They say "dogs are a man's best friends" and I believe that. What really amuses me about these animals is their endless trust in humans: take shelter dogs, for example...best case scenario: they've been abandoned. Worst case scenario: they've been mistreated, possibly tortured, and then abandoned..still, when you go rescue them, they wag their tails and seem genuinely happy somebody decided to take care of them.

Dogs also serve in the military forces as bombe finders in war zones, rescuers after earthquakes, floods and other calamities...They can also be spotted on beaches as lifeguards, in hospitals, giving a precious contribution in pet therapy programs or by helping blind people leading a life as normal as possible.

I put together a list of movies, TV Series and books that have our furry, four-legged friends as the protagonist for all of you who, like me, love them!
Enjoy!
