And, spoiler alert, the book begins with the dog dyint. From the very first page of the book you know he's going to die and I still sobbed uncontrollably. My wife refused to go see the movie. She knew I would embarrass her.
I wonder if it's on Netflix yet. It should be.
I’m reading the book now after having watched the movie. So far the two seem pretty close together. Except of course the detail in Enzo’s narrative is greater in the book.
It was quite poignant, but I did enjoy it. We lost Chester 2 years ago and it was easy to see Chester’s thinking processes in the same manner as in the book. I know there are a lot of smart dogs, but for me personally I always describe Chester as the poster dog for anthropomorphism. He had an excellent grasp of cause and effect. Anyway he too was a great friend. And he too knew when it was time to go.
I think it helped a lot to know that for him time was different and he didn’t see his time here to be short the way we did.
Netflix? No, only movies that promote homosexuality are allowed on netflix.
