Man's First Friend is a 3-minute, state-of-the-art animated short commissioned specifically for The Dog Whisperer™ DVD. With an original idea by Paul Owens, animator Allen Mezquida created a heartwarming story about cave-people and their first encounter with the family dog. These are some of the most memorable animated personalities ever created. The story is a shining metaphor about nonviolent dog training and the incredible value of the bond between dogs and humans. Man's First Friend was honored as a jury selection at the prestigious SIGGRAPH 2004 Computer Animation Festival. Back to catalog
