LITTLE DREAMERS · JUST FOR LAUGHS

View film informationWhy it’s a little special
A sports story and a puppy rescue give the familiar dog two ways to help. Team play and caring for dependents provide simple points for discussion.
BEFORE YOU PRESS PLAY
Know the story.
Know your little people.
Dog theft, animal confinement, pursuit, mild danger, and teen romance. The sporting feats are playful fantasy rather than realistic dog training.
Our notes are a starting point, not an age recommendation. G and PG films can still include intense moments. You know your family best.
