How did Fry know Seymour was three when he found him?
Anyway, this is a top 5 episode in my opinion. I remember seeing it the first time, with friends, and desperately trying to conceal my emotions at the end. Nowadays I can rarely watch it since my girlfriend refuses to watch it due to it being so extremely saddening (especially for dog lovers). Any show, and episode, that can tug your heartstrings and still make you laugh deserves respect. I love the Professor in this episode, especially the line "Know ye now what it feels like to be dog-God!" This is globviously a 10/10 episode.
I have yet to see this episode, but I read the synopsis on Wikipedia, and after reading the last line, I can imagine how intense it must be to watch it for the first time, especially if you're not expecting it. Futurama is unique in that it catches you off guard at times. A while back, I saw the episode "Leela's homeworld", and I remember the ending having a similar impact as Jurassic Bark did. I have only seen Futurama a limited amount of times over the years (through Fox and Adult Swim), but the few episodes I've seen have had enough of an impact on me to want to see some episodes in the new seasons. I find Futurama to be the best animated show, and that's saying a lot because I like a few others, but they're not as satisfying and they don't leave a lasting impression.

What kind of person/Futurama fan has yet to see this episode?!
Someone who has only "caught the show on TV" over the years. Only now am I actually researching these episodes and seeing the episodes from the latest season. I can't wait for June 20th when the new season begins!

Already bought the Blu-rays of Volume 5 and 6 on Amazon...waiting for them! I called my local store and they had it for like $33 and Amazon had it for $19. It was a no brainer because on Amazon they don't charge tax, and shipping is free on orders over $25 so you really can't beat that. Edit: now I'm a "crustacean"?!

We were all little popplers at one point.
Not me. I sprang forth fully-formed from the forehead of our father Marc, along with the other moderators. On topic - Jurassic Bark is one of my favorite episodes, and one of the very few things that has ever managed to jerk tears from me in my adult life. It targets and NAILS the dog-owner button. I know they're pushing that sentimental button, but I cannot help but be affected by how this episode ends. I probably wouldn't be as deeply affected, except that I've had pets for basically all of my life. They're like little stupid people that run around naked and barf on the rug and love you unconditionally (all three of those behaviors because they aren't smart enough to know better). So seeing Seymour wait his whole life for a master that will never return is... both beautiful and profoundly sad.

This is one of the best episodes I have seen. I especially loved the relationship between Seymour and Fry. The ending where it shows Seymour waiting for Fry outside the pizza parlor was quite touching. And the parts where Fry was crying made me tear up too. 10/10

It was quite a sad episode. I really hated the part where the dog passes, though it was a good addition to the episode.

Pretty good episode. Not as good as people make it out to be, and the ending is very overrated.
8/10
