When we talk about streaming culture, we’re usually enthusing about what’s new, but one of the best things about streaming is how it’s made old and obscure cult hits available to a new generation. Presenting Cult Corner: your weekly look into hidden gems and long-lost curiosities that you can find on streaming.

When you think of reality shows, wine throwing, backstabbing, high stakes competition, and dangerous jobs probably come to mind. However, it doesn���t have to be this way, friend. There’s a universe of reality television that’s drama and relaxing free, and it’s only a click away. Welcome to the world of Puppy Days.

Created by Nat Geo WILD, Puppy Days is as innocent as reality TV gets. The series follows six different families who have decided to adopt puppies. However, these new forever homes only have a little over two months to train their newest family member. There’s not a competition at the end or — god forbid — a high-stakes penalty for ill-behaved pups. There are just a lot of adorable dogs and new families who love them.

There’s also an educational element to Puppy Days that should be useful to many dog owners. Puppy Days shows how to prepare your house for pups, introduce a dog to your animal-filled household, and how to correct common behavioral issues. However, unlike Dog Whisperer or My Cat from Hell, Puppy Days is all about positivity, not criticism and punishment.

But I don’t have a puppy, you may be saying to yourself. Can I still enjoy Puppy Days? Absolutely. Much like how I’ve enjoyed every iteration of House Hunters for years though I don’t own a home and I love Top Chef even though I can’t cook, Puppy Days can be appreciated by everyone. If you’re missing something cute, snuggly, and perpetually happy in your life, check out this animal-focused reality show. It’s sure to brighten your day.
