This is a terrific DVD and a fun watch. Jim Paulsen (Marshall Thompson) is an airplane pilot whose life dramatically changes when he takes on his sister’s 250-pound St. Bernard named George. They don’t hit it off immediately but later on, after George saves Jim’s life, they form a lasting friendship.

This movie features some comical moments and a theme of tackling new adventures and the benefits that come with such an adventuresome spirit. It also focuses on friendship and the importance of pets and the happiness they can bring to a life, if given a chance.

We are pleased to award this film our Dove “Family-Approved” Seal. Especially if you are a pet or dog lover, this one is for you!
