Top Dog Film Festival shares heart-warming stories online

The Top Dog Film Festival celebrates the unbreakable bond between dogs and humans. From hard-working sheep dogs to pristinely pampered pooches,

audiences can witness heart-warming, moving and inspiring stories about our four-legged friends.

“Humans and dogs share a unique connection, and this brand-new collection of films celebrates the remarkable canine companions that bring happiness to our lives,” says tour director Nell Teasdale.

“Whether you’re a dog owner or just like animals, these films are guaranteed to make you laugh, cry and fall in love with man’s best friend all over again.”

As well as delightful doggy films, viewers have exclusive access to behind-the-scenes Q&As with film- makers, and a dedicated kids’ zone for young animal lovers. The virtual events will also feature a live prize draw to win fantastic pup-related prizes.

There are two shows, on December 27 and January 15. Films start at 7pm, with viewers invited to explore the virtual foyer from 6pm, where they can enter the prize draw, take on the ultimate Top Dog Film Festival quiz and much more. The shows will be available for 48 hours afterwards as well.

“While we are unable to join dog-lovers live in theatres, we are really excited to be presenting our first ever virtual Top Dog Film Festival,” says Nell. “So grab the popcorn, make a brew and snuggle up with your pets!”

Viewing passes are £10. For more details, go to www.topdogfilmfestival.co.uk
