Ending
How does this movie end?
shareAfter dog was re-trained from attacking black people, it turned on the dog trainer who was white, and had to be shot for it.
shareThere is a much more nuanced reading of this, which completely ruined it for me. Kristy McNichol finds the man--an old white man--who originally trained the dog to be racist; once the dog is cured of his racism, he turns on Burl Ives--get it? An old white man? Wow, the dog not only gets cured; he also gets revenge! Idiotic.
shareId rather believe the white dog turned on the whole idea of his thought control and attacked the source that wanted to shoot him from the start! the old Jew that ran the animal camp had it coming! this ending makes more sence as you had alot of people saying how intelligent the white dog was, and at the ending you can see he was struggling with his mind set. How glorius to go out in flames, and DIE HARD! THE WHITE DOG RETAINED HIS ORIGINAL TRAINING AND ATTACKED THE SOURCE OF THE ISSUE! hey every dog has its day!
