MY GAY DOG AND OTHER ANIMALS REVIEW – THIS HUMP-FILLED HOUR IS A REAL SLOG

A documentary about dogs and homosexualy, both of which are enjoyable topics of nversatn, should be good, mpy fun.

My Gay Dog and Other Animals (Channel 4) purports to be an examatn of the science behd same-sex behavur the animal kgdom, but is, sentially, the kd of segment that might have staed 10 mut on Eurotrash, stretched out over one long, hump-filled Secret Life of the Zoo, which is a far lovelier, more rmative and more passnate show, knows that people are fascated by animal reproductn.

My Gay Dog attempts to replite the formula, but do so wh a lumpen approach, managg to be both silly and arid at the same time, while also puttg this particular viewer the odd posn of feelg pdish about Tipper is om Frome, and his Italian greyhound, Norman, is regularly humped by another Italian greyhound, Fran, whom he shar wh his ex-girliend. “Well, I’ve thought for a long time that Matt’s dogs are gay, ” says Matt’s mum, gravely, as Fran ts away joyoly.

MY GAY DOG AND OTHER ANIMALS

There is an argument about whether those gay dogs are engagg sexual or social behavur – whether Fran is simply beg domant, rather than horny.

There are male lns humpg male lns (“He iat what n only be scribed as matg, ” says wildlife photographer Pl Goldste, a wonrfully “Accintal Partridge” moment) – although given that the pictur of were ptured Kenya, where gay sex remas crimalised, opens up a world of homophobia and hate speech that even extends to big ts. There is a gay bull, saved om slghter by an onle mpaign, only to reveal that his tast are not exclively all-bull. I image that, light of the horrible stori this documentary highlights – a dog given to a kill shelter bee his owner ught him matg wh another male dog; and the notn that the Kenyan lns are eher “mon-posssed” or else have learned homosexual behavur om human begs – there would be obv value explorg the bigotry of what the programme lls “tradnal evolutnary theory” (that homosexualy has no purpose or evolutnary value).
