The greatest movie ever!

It is not only a funny movie, but it allows a great amount of joy for anyone who watches it.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

The movie really just wants to entertain people.

Gayle Kirschenbaum created a touching and funny movie about the love and companionship between people and dogs. Chelsea (Gayle's dog) has to be the cutest dog ever!This wonderful "dogamentary" not only moved me but my daughter who is 11 years old. After seeing this film she insisted we get her a dog. She was inspired to make her own a movie. The "doggie cam" showing Chelsea's point of view is priceless! You don't have to be a dog lover to love this film. This film is fun, funny and touching!

This film told a great story. It is full of comedic quirks. That being said, it is certainly not short on tenderness or meaning. The overwhelming take-away message is that love (both canine and human) is the central drive in life. There is a great feeling of hope as the film progresses, especially as the audience witnesses Chelsea's (the dog's) therapeutic gift with all people. Chelsea's relationship with her owner Gayle is also a treat to observe. I love that this story is about real people and their pets. The film has a fearlessness about it in its humor and its truthfulness. Check it out!

I first saw Gayle Kirschenbaum's "A Dog's Life" at a film festival screening where it wowed the audience. I laughed out loud with everyone in that packed theater during Acts One & Two. In the beginning, this is a breezy entertaining documentary from one of our best filmmaking satirists. Its premise: a mischievous self-promoting celebrity dog "Chelsea" is searching for love in the Big Apple... or at least for doggy companionship... just like her frustrated director/forty-something mother has been doing for years. But then, the story moves from funny and risqué to tragic unexpectedly, when in the middle of filming in their Greenwich Village neighborhood, 911 happens. Act Three moved me to tears. Gayle and Chelsea immediately volunteer to help with the rescue, and because of their big hearts and kindness, they begin to perform miracles. I highly recommend this film to dog lovers and human being lovers everywhere.

I train dogs and own dogs so I expected to love this. But this was 33 minutes of my life that I will never get back... it was just a story of a crazy dog lady who had way too much time on her hands and enough money to produce a video showcasing this fact.It was a great concept, finding love as a single dog owner. But not as a CRAZY dog owner who is as self absorbed and insane about her dog as she appeared in the movie. The dogs were giving off several stress signals throughout(looking away, yawning). I just felt bad for them and wished they were allowed to just be dogs.Seriously, pass this one by.
