"Girl's Best Friend" is a deeper conversation about the connections between humans that happen because of dogs. We will explore the friendships, support systems, commerce, and creatives that only dogs manage to bring together. We’re interested in heartwarming, heartbreaking, and hilarious stories about what happens when we give our lives to our dogs, and get friendships, challenges, and communities in return.
