Eight Below: A Dog's Life

Dogs are loving, playful, jolly, and are happy beside their master. You can seea dog’s feelings by wagging their tail and shows affection by licking your face or your hand. In the movie, Eight Below is a very touching story that shows leadership and love to one another—both dogs and their master. The movie started when Paul Walker is a guide at an Antarctica research base. Paul, Harrison, andMcClarenare going to Mount Melbourne to find a rare meteorite from the planet Mercury and the only way to go there is by using a dog sled. Due to the storm, too much weight in the plane can’t carry both people and dogs so they decided to return for the dogs later. The storm is worse than expected and soon knew that there will be no rescue for the dogs until the next spring.

After a few days when they left the dogs, the dogs break free of their chains then immediately set off their journey to find food but, one dog named Old Jack can’t come because he’s too oldand weak to break the chains then, eventually dies. One night, one of the dogs named Dewey, falls to a slope then eventually dies because of his fatal injury. Max, one of the dogs stays with Dewey a little while longer then went to find his friends. On his way back he saw a dead animal and ate it, until he was attacked by a seal. The other dogs was able to find Max, Max tried to distract the seal so that the rest can eat the dead animal but, the seal predicted what’s happeningthen bites Maya (the leader of the dogs) on the leg but manages to survive then, the other dogs chase the seal furiously. The part that touches my heart is where the dogs hunt’s foods for Maya but refuses and gave it to Max. This means that she’s passing her leadership to Max, who has shown bravery, leadership, and compassion.The dogs find their way to the camp, where Paul and his rescue team and return home with the six dogs.

I love mydogs because whenever I arrived home from school they’ll meet you at the gate immediately. I love the way they wag their tails because it showed them how happy they are to see their master. I don’t want my dog to treat me as their master, I want them to treat me as a friend.I really like dogs and I’vedreamed of having a siberian husky because they look so attractive.Dogs are man’s bestfriend, we must treat them love and care just like the way dogs or any animal treated us. “Dogs have been known to die to save their masters. A dog might even die of misery after his master is dead. They are certainly a true and faithful friend. It is right to call him man’s best friend.”
