    I loved it !! I love animals and thought this was a nice tribute to dogs and how they never really leave us but continue on in our lives through other dogs. I loved how it was made through the eyes of the dog Bailey to give us a bit of insight as to how they may see us humans and think. Wonderfully made and was fun, sad and thoughtful !!!

    Spoiler alert... This is a Lassie movie for Buddists. Frankly , after the passing of the 3rd incarnation of the dog; the gender female German Sheperd, I really did not care what the Dog's Purpose was. Incarnation 4 , little dog with short legs, was a g-rated snorefest. And only children raised without electronics and the gullible would accept the trashed-football carrying #5 pooch as the original "Bailey". Movie ended not soon enough.

    This is a touching story of one loveable dog's search for his purpose over the course of many lives. It would be nice to think we could all get another chance.

    As much as I wanted to like this movie, and it did have some good moments, it seemed to grim for a dog lover to see (spoiler) the dogs die again and again. Additionally, the USP is the dog's perspective. But too much focus is given to 'human' part of the story. Lastly, did not really appreciate the voice actor for the dog (just didn't resonate). One time watch!

    This was a very touching movie with many humorous scenes and good life lessons. The dogs as puppies are very cute, and their talking very good and funny. All dog lovers will love this movie. The movie was much better than I expected.
