“Puppy Love” is the story of Labrador puppies stricken with a paralysis and neurologic disorder after their regular puppy vaccinations.

The story follows the breeder, Lab owners and the filmmakers, who adopt one of the pups, as they use a special diet and physical therapy to bring them back to their true retriever ability. The documentary film will be shown Sunday, Aug. 4, at 2 p.m. at The Park Theatre, 19 Main St. in Jaffrey. The screening, part of the theater’s Filmmakers Series, will also be a fundraising event for the Monadnock Humane Society of Swanzey.

“Puppy Love,” produced by Cerise Films of Chicago, is a documentary written and directed by Gail Gilbert. Gilbert will be in attendance at the screening to conduct a talkback question-and-answer session with the audience after the screening.

The Monadnock Human Society (monadnockhumanesociety.org) will be in attendance at the screening with information about their mission and adoption programs. Tickets are $15. They can be purchased online at theparktheatre.org, by visiting the box office or calling the box office hotline at 603-532-8888.
