My Dog Skip is a wonderful movie. I took my girls to see it while it was in the theaters and my youngest turned to me at the end and said "great movie, Mom!" with tears running down her face. She was being totally sarcastic. We were out to kill some time when they were on a break from school and I thought it would be a happy movie about a boy and his dog. It is a great movie but if you have ever had a pet it can be tough to watch. I could cry just thinking of it now.
