I saw that in the grocery store the other day. I got a little knot just reading the book sleeve.

OK, so you all have me convinced to add Eight Below to the “no watch” list.

Dean Koontz is one that truly loves his dog. I love how eloquently he speaks about Trixie. It made me realize that I’m not so crazy for sharing those same feeling about my own furbabies.

I agree, the true story part makes it even worse. I would have taken the dogs with me or stayed behind. No way would I have left them.

Have you guys watched the previous to Hachiko yet? It’s based on a true story of an Akita in Tokyo who waited for her owner every night at the train station to walk home with him. Many years later of doing this, the man of course dies and does not come, but Hachiko waits for him there day and night. The people of Tokyo erected a statue at the train station to honor Hachiko’s loyalty to her human. The American movie has Richard Gere playing the lead. I am tearing up just writing this post!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FaS37E3gKOU

So I confess that I am definitely another weepy mess when it comes to movies and commercials and anything else like that when it comes to dogs. I read Marley and Me, cried. Saw the movie and while I was thinking “you know, they really aren’t very good owners” I still sobbed at the end. That being said, I have a book to recommend. It’s “A Big Little Life” by Dean Koontz. It’s non-fiction and you will definitely cry like a baby (two full days for me, I admit it), but it’s such a joyful account of what our fur babies mean to us. So don’t read the last parts of it on a plane!!!!

I loved Up. That is my dog, exactly. Not too bright, but very loyal and sweet! I like the sepia-tonedish photos taped into the album over the credits of dog and boy and man having fun in the park, at the zoo, etc. The perfect one is at the end where they’re all in the park and you see Doug lying on the blanket snoozing away, home at last. Man, I’m gonna make myself weepy.
