Sigh

When I was a kid, I watched this Japanese series about a labrador guide dog. A dog goes through a lot to be a guide dog. I have a lot of respect for them. I think the show was accurate because like you said, the owner had to learn the right commands and how to care for the dog at a school. I think it says on the show that once the harness is on, the dog is on the job, they only play and have fun when the harness is off. It was a great show, the dog changed his life. It was a really touching show, the dog was amazing and stayed with the owner through his sickness and his death. Breaks your heart, really.

ETA: lol thinking about that show brings tears to my eyes, that dog was really something. If you're interested, it's a Japanese series called Quill (yea, the coincidence, must be god!). Check it out, it's really good.

Is there an English dub? If not I'll just have to watch it with someone.

No, you're right. I'll happily return to my custom of ignoring what he says.

Sorry about that.

It's fine, I can see how that would grate on your nerves

My parents bought the CDs with chinese sub. I'm looking it up and apparently it was originally a novel called "The Life of Quill, the Seeing-Eye Dog" and was adapted into a tv drama and a film by NHK. What I watched was the tv drama.

I found english sub DVD of the movie on amazon. link They don't seem to have dub.

They've made an english version where the dog talks, so avoid that, it sounds horrible.

Speaking of really touching dog movies, there's also Hachi, another Japanese film, but I'm too emotionally fragile to watch that.
