It was not a bad film however the dog died in the most gruesome way possible it is terrible and I do not recommend you watch this film if you are an animal lover. I also believe that it was an unnecessary death, for both the dog and the horse what is a tendency to run home when you leave them, so the writers could have worked that in so the horse did not have to die. and the dog being killed by her man was just wrong, The dog dying at all was just wrong.
