This is a sweet movie with themes of friendship, perseverance, love, loyalty and dedication. It is comedic and heartwarming, completely clean, and ultimately everything works out well in the end. However, the scenes of peril for two of the main animal characters are entirely too realistic, with gaps that are too long between the apparent death/loss of each of those two main animal characters and the ultimate happy reunion/resolution for each. Some suspense is important for storytelling, but this was entirely too much for a young, or even older, more sensitive child.
