I was about to get heated at you for excluding Old Yeller.
And I don't know if a movie was ever made of it, but if they had done it right, Where The Red Fern grows would be my instant number one. That shit made me cry like a bitch when I was in 3rd grade and shit.

I saw that recently and thought that scene didn't hit as hard, mostly because it seemed to happen in the first 15 minutes. I'm not even sure if we knew the horse's name before that scene. For some reason, in my memory they had been through a lot together on screen before that happened.
Still sad, though.
And damn, I just remembered the chimp from Project X. For some reason, I saw that movie multiple times in middle school during class. Maybe it was based off of a book or something. Anyway, that would be on my list, too.

That's right, the horse and the quicksand! It's been so long since I saw the movie, I thought it was the flying dog. Remembering that scene, that seriously put a downer on the whole day.

I mean this film, old yeller and the lion king are pretty much the 3 deaths in films that most ppl remember sticking out from their childhood. I don't know too many ppl that bring up Hooch or Virgil The Chimp, in reference to their childhood or otherwise.

I can still tear up thinking about it, and I saw this movie 6 years ago.
Partly because it was a documentary, so this was a real animal death, not the story of an animal death Partly because it was completely unexpected Probably largely because I was mad at him for bringing the dog along in the first place -- I don't think it was appropriate for a terrier to be walking across a continent. Sure, if you as a human are crazy enough, fine. But don't subject your dog to it. And look who survived, right?
