A Dog movie worth seeing

[FifthWheel]

My daughter came home from school one day recently an said "Dad, you have to see this movie". I said yeah yeah OK. She persisted and I finally ordered it from the big auction site.
The movie is "Hachi: A Dog's Tale", starring Richard Gere. Based on a true story.
It came out a few years ago but somehow slipped by without my seeing it. Many of you may have seen it already.
I know there are plenty of dog or furry friend people on this forum and thought I'd pass this along because I'm glad my daughter insisted.

Hachi: A Dog's Tale

I just saw a short clip, and I will get the movie also. I do have a special place in my heart for dogs and all animals.
Thank you for posting this.

"The movie is "Hachi: A Dog's Tale", starring Richard Gere. Based on a true story."
It is a tear-jerker for sure. And it was based on a true story. But the true story took place in Japan quite a long time ago, not in the USA as depicted in the movie.

The good thing about Dog's is this...no matter the location or language,,,,they always bond with people and are devoted to their owner. And also true is that people that bond in the same way with their pets,,,regardless of location,,,are for sure solid and good people.
You can judge a lot from how people take care of animals.

Thank you,

Check out Dean Spanley. It starts slow but is a good movie.

Poor, faithful, loving old Hachi, as he waits and waits, seasons changing, waiting, and then finally, his long sleep, and his reuniting with his master, and the joy...
There is no thing better than a dog.

THE MORE PEOPLE I MEET, THE MORE I APPRECIATE DOGS.

HACHI was real, it took place in Japan "around WWll" I believe and there is a statue of him. Just slap me & call me Sally. A BIG WUSS when it comes to dogs in movies/shows/commercials/ vets & military dog reunions. If depictions of abuse or death, break out the tissues. A dogs life/purpose movie was good/book was better. Still grieving for my sibling Brittany's since last August. Less grieving for family/friends, Is that wrong?

I'm the same way, and the bitter irony is their short life span.

This one was pretty good too.

I just watched that one with my kids a couple weekends ago. A little far fetched, but a good movie. Nice to see Dennis Quaid again.
