That was furry, er, funny.
But seriously, them being dogs didn't bother me that much at all. Surely, it might be a gimmick, but not all gimmicks are bad just because they're a gimmick. Donald Duck is a bad-tempered duck but he could've been a bad-tempered human just as well. But the fact that he's a duck adds some comic value to him, and makes him a recognisable character.
The main characters in this series being dogs simply makes the series stand out a bit more (and adds opportunities for bad puns), which hopefully is an incentive for the creators to keep improving on it. It's got potential; now do something with that potential, the pilot was all right but I'm sure this can get a lot better.
