Living Life...Boomer Style

 

I took my six-year-old daughter and seven-year-old niece to see Hotel For Dogs.  I didn't have high expectations going in, but walked out feeling great.  

 

The movie is about two foster children who have to keep their dog Friday hidden while being moved from one foster home to another. In the mean time, they find themselves rescuing every stray they come across so that it doesn't end up in the pound.

 

On their journey, they meet three friends who are as crafty and passionate as they are,
They find an abandoned hotel to house all the
dogs, and keep it a secret. 

Hotel For Dogs kept all the children's attention in the theatre.  There are no scary parts or things you have to explain to your kids. There were lots of giggles from everyone and lots of "Oohhh he or she is so cute."  It even has a love story or two, a few teary moments (yes I cried), and a happy ending for everyone.

 

 

I would recommend Hotel For Dogs to anyone who loves animals or all of you adults who have ever rescued a stray as a child. This is a fabulous film for a grandparent, aunt, uncle or any adult who would love to treat their favoite kid to a day of fun.  If you can't make it to the theatre then this is a must watch DVD with children of any age.  I can't wait for this to come out in DVD so I can buy it.
