Downward dog TV show

I watched the first two episodes of Downward dog. It airs on Tuesdays at 8 pm EST on ABC. It was really good. The dog is absolutely adorable. I read that he was a rescue dog. He was adopted and trained for this. His real name is Ned and he has the most expressive eyes.

The show is about Martin(the dog) and Nan(played by Allison Tolman). The voice of Martin is provided by Samm Hodges. He does a great job of combining the voice with the expressive sweet eyes of the dog. It just sounds great.

Nan is trying to balance her work and her home life. She has a dysfunctional relationship with her boyfriend and a boss that is less than fun to work for. Martin and Nan have very different outlooks on things. He wants Nan to stay home with him all the time. Martin is confused as to why Nan has to leave every day. In his prospective he should be the center of Nan's world the same way she is the center of his.

The show explores the loyalty of this relationship. It makes you feel happy and sad at the same time. As dog lovers we all struggle with having to leave our dogs home alone to go to work. We also hope that our dogs see us in the same light that Martin sees Nan.

I really enjoyed the feel of this show. It was fun to watch. I smiled, laughed and cried. If you own and love a dog give this show a try. I think you will enjoy it as much as I have so far.

Thanks for reading
