But this unscripted series focuses on the titular animal. In each episode, new dogs who are being sheltered at Woodgreen\u2019s enormous, bucolic facility are introduced to potential adopters while handlers watch the introduction on closed-circuit TV. Be warned that the stories both dogs and humans bring to Woodgreen are often heartbreaking. But the vast majority will have you crying tears of joy, and probably hugging your own furry friend extra close.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vanityfair.com\/hollywood\/best-shows-on-max-right-now\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cIt\u2019s not TV.
