those who hate problably dont have dogs


i see alot of people hating on this movie, thats problably because they dont have pets, anyone who has a dog will be moved by this movie.

i paused the movie somewhere in the middle and googled this movie and found out it was a true story and there were actually 12 dogs of wich 2 survived, i myself have a husky too so the ending really moved me .. alot :P

i never cried before in movies.. but this.. oh man :P

I told a friend of mine to watch this movie, but he won't watch a movie where a dog dies. He'll turn it off in the middle if it happens. I'm like, "They don't kill them in real life." But I think he just gets really emotionally about it.

He told me about the episode of Futurama where Frye finds his dog and doesn't bring him back to life because he had a full life already. And then they flashback to show how the dog waiting for him all that time. And I just thought that was the SADDEST THING EVER. I almost cried (I actually teared up!) just hearing him tell me that. And I'm not a dog person.

I love most Disney films. I can't think of one that I dislike ... eh, maybe one or two, but when I see a good one, like this one, I really get good feelings inside.

This really was a wonderful bit of film making. And working with all those animals, how could you not have fun both working on it, and seeing the final product?

Dogs are great creatures, as are most animals.

It's exactly because I have dogs and love animals that I hate this movie.

If you enjoy a movie in which dogs are chained outside, abandoned and left freezing/starving to death you are as *beep* up as the ones who made this turd. Not to mention that at least one Husky was beaten by its trainer (IRL).

But again you write like a retarded 8 year-old so...

🐺 Boycott movies that involve real animal violence (& their directors) 🐾

It was about how the dogs survived in extreme subzero temperatures in spite of being abandoned.

No one celebrated leaving them there.
