"Anderson's greatest gift as a performer has always been her skill as a storyteller, and she's rarely delivered a more satisfying or heartfelt work than she has on Heart of a Dog".

"Typically for Anderson, it's by turns whimsical, sinister, sad and funny as well as surprisingly educational, as she offers observations on animal behaviour, security surveillance, and the Buddhist approach to death, interspersed with childhood reminiscences and charming interactions with her canine chum. And in the end, it's deeply moving in a way that "closure" couldn't hope to equal".

"Lyden på albummet Heart of a Dog er den hele lydside til dokumentaren af samme navn. Altså samtlige 75 minutters lydspor uden billeder. Lydligt er det et smukt væv af tanker om hunden Lolabelles liv og død i 2011. Men også kærlighed og kunst, erindring og historiefortælling, spøgelser og traumer (nationale såvel som personlige). Og som den store fortæller og lyddigter, Anderson er, fungerer den fremragende på egen hånd. Det er let at forestille sig Lolabelles jagede udtryk i ansigtet under erkendelsen af faren fra oven [det uventede møde med høgene i bjergene]. Og det er let at forestille sig newyorkerne have det samme jagede udtryk i ansigterne efter 11. september".
