Love is an essential ingredient in the recipe for a happy life, so when orphaned sisters Sal (Makenzie Vega) and Rae (Abigail Breslin, Little Miss Sunshine) find a puppy to love and a family that wants to adopt them both, it seems like the perfect beginning to the rest of their lives. Things become more complicated when the girls find out that their parents' apartment in New York doesn't allow dogs and their new father is allergic to animals. The girls sneak their Great Dane puppy Chestnut into their new home and thus begins a game of hide and seek that's sweet and funny, if not all that believable. The girls manage to keep their ever-growing dog a secret for quite some time, but a wedding reception gone wrong blows Chestnut's cover and threatens to tear the family apart. Can two girls' love for their dog and a couple of bungling crooks somehow reconcile this newly-formed family's differences and strengthen the bond between them? This sweet movie from the producers of Air Bud features an adorable dog, two precious girls, and a heartwarming and sometimes sad story about family and the power of love. (Ages 4 to 12) --Tami Horiuchi

Sal and Rae must use every hilarious trick in the book to hide their mischievous pup, survive in the big city, and create the family of their dreams. Their charming story will touch your heart and make you howl!

Enjoyable Family Movie January 8, 2009
J. Harrison (Lincoln, Nebraska)
I really enjoyed this movie. It's about two girls who hide a puppy, that happens to be a great dane from their new family, they were adopted out of an orphanage. This causes a lot of hilarous moments of the girls hiding the dog. The Dad happens to be allergic to dogs and the apt the girl lives in is a no dogs allowed building. This movie would be fun for all ages. I'm an adult and I enjoyed it. It's one of the few movies you can find these days that is clean but still enjoyable, regardless of how old you are.

My kids (ages 8, 4 and 3) LOVE this movie! They watch it over and over again. A good, wholesome, family movie. My husband describes this movie as "Home Alone" but with a dog!
Nobody ever heard of this movie September 3, 2008
lissablack (New Mexico)
It is delightful. I heard of it from someone who knows the breeder of the adult dog in it. I got it from Netflix and immediately bought it for me and another copy for my grandson, who is 6. He watched it three times the day he got it.
I have seen it three times too, I never do that.
It is hokey and unrealistic and purely a pleasure. I guess heartwarming is the word.
It was never released in theaters, so never advertised, and that is a real shame. It is a sweet wonderful movie and you don't have to be a child to love it. I guess you should be a dog lover.

This is a dog/child story with a different twist than the others I've seen in this category. Although children will enjoy it, so will adults. It is a funny, tender story!
