NY Dog Film Festival 2025
Now in its 9th year, the NY Dog Film Festival brings together animated, documentary, and narrative short films that explore the bond between dogs and people. Held at Amherst Cinema, this curated selection from around the world supports both storytelling and animal studies, offering a lens into canine behavior, human-animal relationships, and rescue efforts. A portion of proceeds benefits Better Together Dog Rescue in Leverett, connecting film with local impact. These family-friendly films encourage reflection on empathy, interspecies care, and the role animals play in community life.
