After seeing the video of a dog nearly drowning on set to get the best shot, I'm surprised this film made it to the circuit. 1 star because I can't give it no stars.

A tear jerker of a movie. Makes you feel for all the characters, the only bad thing is that this is not the best film the 100 pecentent dog lovers. Also gave away the ending of the movie in the trailer

Good film from a dogs point of view. However I couldn't stop crying its upsetting but heart warming at the same time. Touches your heart.
