Even though the fights aren't shown on camera there is still animal cruelty.
First of all, I have to tell you that the only reason I watched this film is because of Jeff Richards. I wish I hadn't. His character is the worst of the worst without a single redeeming quality. Also, he holds Wildfire in the air by the tail for an extended period of time. Back then, many people didn't know how damaging that could be to a dog, but we know now, so it's horrible to see. I'm terribly disappointed in Jeff Richards for his involvement in this movie. I hope the only reason he did it was because he didn't have a choice for some reason.
The only reason I gave this movie two stars instead of one is because it had a nice sappy ending. However, it isn't nearly good enough to watch this movie. Do yourself a favour and watch something else. I wish I had.
