    “ The jarring nature of this play makes its emotional impact hit that much harder. Devastating in its succinctness, and a strong call-to-action vis a vis gun violence. I’m genuinely rooting for these dogs, and not just because I love dogs—and despite, as the Nurse points out, the fact that they won’t solve the problem alone. ”

    “ It goes from silly to sobering in an instant. Asher's work is to playwriting what the haiku is to poetry. Short, moving, minimalistic, and all-encompassing. Each short piece Asher is a lesson in economy that more playwrights could follow and learn from. Read this play. Take it in, let yourself go into the world created on this page. ”

    “ And there aren’t enough therapy dogs to comfort what is happening in America. In one minute we move from “aww, cute” to “funny” to a “breathless sorrow.” ”
