Firehouse Dog - The Movie
LAST MONTH I NOTICED A NEW DVD ON THE DISPLAY SHELVES THAT WAS EYE-CATCHING because it had a prominent picture of a dog wearing running gear. It’s a movie titled “Firehouse Dog” and I’ve since learned that the DVD was just released two months ago. The film itself came out to the theaters in April.
If you have children, then you probably already know about it. But if you don’t, I’ll share with you what I learned today. It’s definitely a kid’s movie. I’d say the 8 to 14 age bracket would be perfect. Adults would be a bit bored with the preposterous plot lines and impossible situations, but it’s great for the youngsters. No exploding car chases or gratuitous violence, just good clean fun.
In a nutshell, the story is about a movie stunt dog that gets lost and is found by a boy whose unmarried father is a fire captain. His firehouse is stocked with misfits and broken equipment and they are always in trouble. The city manager wants to close the station because they are so inept and most of their neighborhood has burned down. (I told you it was preposterous)
After a series of remarkable dog actions, he saves the day, the firefighters suddenly become heroes and the station gets to stay open. Go ahead, get it for the kid. He’ll love it.

And your pre-teen daughter will love it because of Josh Hutcherson, who plays the lead role. Apparently he’s just DREAMY!
