Dog Stories

Directed by Shereen Jerrett
Canada, 1992 (documentary, 24 minutes, colour, English)

Film Description:
"Pugs in leis at a birthday party, a dancing poodle named Ivana, a bat-swinging border collie, even a shepherd that shoots its owner in the back with a shotgun—these are just a few of the outrageous details of the reverent homages that Shereen Jerrett has included in the humane and hysterical Dog Stories."
-- Festival of Festivals (source)

Film Description:
"Dog Stories reveals as much about the people telling the stories as the dogs they are describing. The dog owners are more honest about their feelings about a dog than almost any other aspect of their lives, and in the process they reveal a lot about themselves."
-- Winnipeg Film Group (source)
