Raise your hand if you've already watched every feel-good show on TV. Well, if you're looking for more heartwarming content, you're going to want to stream HBO Max's The Dog House: UK, a new docuseries about abandoned pups finding their forever homes.

The eight-episode series follows the staff of Wood Green, a rural British animal rescue center, as they try to match rescue dogs with prospective owners. Each episode shows the emotional backstory of an abandoned pup, as well as relatable backgrounds of families, couples, and singles who all hope adopting a dog will help change their lives.

It's up to the center's staff to find the best match for the pups and prospective owners. The climax of the show? The first "date," which determines whether or not the adorable dogs and the eager owners share a meaningful bond. "The Dog House: UK captures the joy and complexity of the human-dog 'dating' experience," the show's description on HBO Max reads.

The entire season dropped on July 23, so you can binge-watch all of the episodes, which are about 47 minutes long, right now. If you're looking for a shorter, lighthearted show that centers on sweet dogs, you can stream Quibi's Barkitecture, a series that features luxe celebrity dog houses.
