I remember watching this movie as a kid.... I'm now a grandmother!!! So, decided to buy it and let my grandson see it.... Of course, I watched it with him.... AND IT IS BETTER THAN I REMEMBERED!! VERY ENTERTAINING AND HEART-WARMING.... GREAT FOR THE WHOLE FAM!!! EVEN IN THIS AGE OF PIXAR FILMS, THE CLASSIC DISNEY ANIMATION IS AWESOME. (only one problem: the song by the siamese cats will stick in your head for days!!! "We are SI-A-ME-EEZ if you PLEE-EEZ!")

this is a great disney classic. we bought lady and the tramp 1 and 2. my grand children absolutely love both of them. great family movies!

the classic love story of dog and dog. The film is cute and cuddly and thats why I included it in my Disney collection.

The movie always keeps your interest in mind. Make's you feel like your part of the story. You wind up routing for the good guys and sometimes the bad guys, or character's in the movie. There never too long, or too short, just right. I suggest sitting down and watching a Disney movie, of your choice, today. Believe me, it's well worth the time.
