During the pandemic, filmmaker Ken Wardrop cheered himself up by seeking out photos and videos of dogs on social media.

This documentary meets some of the Irish canine characters and their owners (such as Suman and Toby, right) who have been making waves on TikTok, YouTube and Instagram. They range from ‘dogfluencers’ with millions of followers to pampered pooches who have so far flown under the radar.
