Animal treatment on the set.
Review date: 2008-01-28 Rating: 2 out of 10

My attention was drawn to this film after reading of the poor treatment of the animals (dogs) on the set. The American Humane Society that monitor the treatment of animals on film sets found that several of the dogs had contracted the Parvo virus which lead to several animals having to be destroyed.

I think if the film is good or bad is besides the point. I could not show young children this film knowing that the cast were treated so poorly. Shame on Disney for distributing this 'family' film.

All of the above is true and can be verified on the American Humane a quote from the press release is below.
