He should've stayed with his dogs - no matter what.

As a dog owner, I was disgusted with the way Paul Walker's character left his dogs and I quote, "we tightened their collars so they couldn't escape". He was told the plane would return straight away so why wouldn't he stay for a few hours? Had he stayed, being human, returning to the base would've been a priority anyway regardless of the weather conditions.

This movie made me so angry.

If he stayed he would have frozen to death. He's no good to them dead. If stayed alive he would have been losing body parts left & right. That's also not good for the dogs either. If you think you would have survived that *beep* storm intact in order to protect the dogs, then you are BIGGER than God.

This movie made me so angry.

You're not the only one. I hated it, my family hated it. The treatment of sled dogs was shockingly careless - disgusting. And to think it's a freaking Disney movie.

🐺 Boycott movies that involve real animal violence (& their directors) 🐾
