This Adorable Netflix Dogumentary Follows 5 Labrador Puppies’ Training To Become Pawsome Guide Dogs

ADVERTISEMENT

We hear so many people say that dogs are just too good and pure for this world and we here at Bored Panda are certainly not ones to argue with this beautiful statement. On the contrary, we are here to provide more information to affirm it. So prepare for your hearts to be melted not by adorable corgi bubble butts or something naive and cheeky someone’s doggo did. This time, it will be done by five incredibly cute labrador pups up for an incredibly serious task – becoming guide dogs for the visually impaired. Scroll down to find out more!

“Pick of the Litter” is an adorable dogumentary recently added on Netflix

That follows 5 Labrador pups for two years

The film follows the adorable five right from the moment they’re born and begin their journey to become the most important companions in visually impaired people’s lives. Some of the litter had it easier than others, all of the puppies being born with incredibly different personalities.

The litter of these adorable labrador pups shown in the film is located in California and is a part of the US organization, Guide Dogs for the Blind, which receives 1,100 applicants every year.

Who are named Patriot, Potomac, Primrose, Poppet, and Phil

The puppies live with carers until they’re 16 months old

Becoming a guide dog is no easy job, as it requires the doggos to take responsibility for their owners and ultimately make some decisions on their own whether something would be safe for both of them or not.

Therefore, it’s no surprise that not all puppies can qualify for such a task, as some have more reckless personalities than others. Only the best of the best or at least the most responsible of the little ones can make the cut and become the pick of the litter.

Reports state that only two thirds of the trained pups make the final cut

The final third that doesn’t really qualify for the serious job finds loving homes elsewhere

While the documentary is mainly focused on these five cute furballs, it also features the testimonials of visually impaired people who confirm the importance of guide dogs in their lives.

And are given homes with new and loving owners

The whole documentary is just a cuteness overload

Saw this in the theater and was pleasantly surprised how much I enjoyed it. If I remember the numbers correctly, out of 800 dogs, only 300 pass. The ones that don't, get adopted out.
