The Dog Lover (2016)
9/10
Decent Little Movie

Warning: Spoilers
This movie starts out by honestly portraying the kind of puppy mills that are the problem. It is produced by Protect the Harvest, an organization that works to protect the rights of families in animal industries.

The breeder in the movie is not by definition a "puppy mill" but rather a 3rd generation professional breeder of high quality hunting dogs.

The movie does a good job of pointing out the ugly side of the animal rights movement and the damage that can result from the combination of an ambitious deep pocketed non profit and overzealous, inexperienced law enforcement.

Even with it's clear agenda, the movie is well written and the acting is very good. If you don't come in with any preconceived notions as some of the previous reviews clearly have, you will enjoy the movie for what it is, a classic David and Goliath with a very modern setting.
