Dear Friends,
I hope you are having a great week! It has been a busy one here. Momma and I are taking a big blogging break for the next six weeks (!!) so we have been busy catching up here.
I did take a little time off to see The Secret Life of Pets this week. This is an animated movie about what pets do when their people are out for the day. First, let's discuss the irony: this movie about what pets do when they are left alone will entice more people to leave their pets alone ... in order to see the movie!
The star of the show is Max, a sweet and brave Jack Russell Terrier. (A reminder that I am a Doxie/Jack mix, so I was very thrilled to see a JRT in this movie.) Max has everything down pat, like making little happy circles and snuggling with his Momma. He has a very good life ... until his mother rescues a great big dog named Duke from the pound. Max isn't sure at all about Duke, and Duke wants to stake his claim in his new home.
Max has many wonderful friends, like Chloe the cat, Gigi the fluffy dog, and Buddy THE DACHSHUND. Yes, you read that correctly. There is also a dachshund in this movie, and he steals the show a bit, if you ask me.
Max and Duke end up on an unexpected adventure outside of their apartment building. It leads them to danger and excitement all over New York City. There is a good pet rescue message in Duke's story, and the ending of the movie made Momma shed a happy tear.
Here is a movie trailer for The Secret Life of Pets. I give this movie a very enthusiastic four paws up!
I will be taking a blog break for a bit but will be back after Labor Day!
In the meantime, I would love to hear from YOU in the comments below. Have you seen The Secret Life of Pets? Or do you just want to say hi? I would love to hear from you.
Love,
Abby xoxoxo

No need to have a kid cover to see the movie. My husband, 25 year old son and I went and the theatre was full of adults. I loved the movie as it made me think of all of the wonderful pets in my life now and those that have touched my life over the years. I would like to see it again now and own a copy to watch over and over again. Thanks for this review, Abby. The next best thing about watching the movie is talking about it with other animals lovers.
I'm going to see the movie tonight and can't wait!!! ps- i'm 28 lol
Great review! We are going to see the movie on Tuesday, so I'm happy to hear it got 4 paws up. Enjoy your blogging break!
I'm looking forward to seeing this next week! My teenage sons even think it looks like something they want to watch.
