Lucky Dog: Paws with Purpose is the kind of heartwarming show that makes you want to get a dog. Or another dog. Or like, five dogs. If we had space, we’d have so many dogs. Don’t ask us how much we love dogs, because this is an entertaiment site and it makes no sense for us to wax poetic about dogs. But we will.
The show is not just about dogs, though. It’s about the connection between dog and human. And as we celebrate Veteran’s Day, the show will do the same with a special episode, set to air on November 14. The synopsis for the hour reads: “After transitioning back to civilian life, an army veteran is finally ready to get the dog he’s always wanted. Working together, Brandon and Spencer find him the perfect canine companion.”
You can watch an exclusive clip of the episode below, and honestly, the sheer joy in this clip is contagious.
“Lucky Dog: Paws with Purpose follows Emmy® Award-winning animal trainer Brandon McMillan as he pairs dogs with military veterans and families, creating meaningful matches built on comfort, companionship and stability. Created in partnership with USAA, the series celebrates the strength, resilience and connection found across the military community while spotlighting the life-changing bond between people and dogs.”
