A Tear jerker filled with Innocence And hope, 2 Jul 2004

By	Mr. Justin S. Brookman "justin_brookman" (UK) - See all my reviews

Im so happy this is now going to be available on DVD, Being part scottish and a lover of all the scottish terrier breeds mainly the omnipotent Cairn terrier this film sits well. If your spirits need lifting or you need a good hangover cure get this film. In a world of selfishness and egotism this restores ones spirit and faith in things innocent and good I challenge anyone not to be uplifted by this classic true story...

Bobby, 14 Jun 2006

By	M. G. Hatfield "trekle5" (North Wales UK) - See all my reviews

Bobby is based on a true story that comes from Scotland there is a staute of Bobby in Edinbourgh Disney have brought the story to life on this DVD Greyfriars Bobby is the heartwarming story on one dogs love for his master.
The film starts with Bobby being givento a little girl.
the man we get to as Old Jock was a shepard on the farm of the girl parents Bobby has always being with Old Jock and runs after him all the to Edinborugh but before hecan call the farm to come and get him Jock dies and is buired in Greyfriars.
Bobby loyalty still remains to his master even though Jock has died Bobby continues to guard his masters grave everyday on matter what the elements throw at him and the groundskeeper of the graveyard.
This story is all about one little dogs' love and loyality to his master to beyond the grave this tug on your heart strings and make you reach for the tissuies the perfect parnter to this DVD could be any doggy film but Benji The Hunted is another good doggy film he is as famous as Bobby but only becuase he's been on TV since the 80's.
This is must if you heard the story of loyal Bobby and found hard to picture or even if not and also fans of Disney films would like this and add to their collection.

A classic film for families with a heart and dog lovers, 17 Feb 2008

By	J. A. Williams "James Williams" (Atlanta, GA) - See all my reviews

Having been to Edinburgh and seen the statue of Bobby, this film had some meaning for me. Film makers - including Disney - just don't make films like this anymore, probably because society has changed so much since this was filmed in 1960.

There is no violence, no swearing, the dog is real, and there is no animation - it's a sweet film that'll gently tug on your heart strings. It's innocence is so very touching and it's a classic example of the type of films my parents grew up watching and that I can now appreciate.

If you're a dog lover then it'll warm your heart, and if you want to show your children a sweet film that will show them a bit of history, won't frighten them, or teach them bad habits then Greyfriar's Bobby is just the ticket.
