Why it’s a little special

An animal-loving boy and a wonderfully silly science-fiction premise make an easygoing talking-dog comedy.

US film rating

Rude animal humor, bullying and threats to separate dogs from their families. Includes mild comic peril.

Our notes are a starting point, not an age recommendation. G and PG films can still include intense moments. You know your family best.
