Love to the Rescue

The title of this film comes from the fact it revolves a rescue dog, which two families want to adopt. Single mother Kate Healy (Nikkie Deloach) and her daughter Sophia (Michaela Russell) set their sights on the rescue dog, Bruce, only to find that single dad Eric Smith (Michael Rady) and son Owen (Max Ivutin) also plan to adopt the adorable pooch.

A decision to temporarily co-adopt leads to many interactions between Kate, who likes to think outside the box, and Eric, who is usually satisfied by the status quo. The first forty-five minutes showed no chemistry between the two, as backgrounds were established.

Kate is a character that may not appear to everyone; she has a quirkiness that is Diane Keaton-like. But that personality is what really drives the story and gives it energy.

The two child actors would seem to have a promising career in acting. They were not just child placeholders in the story. They felt integral to the story development.

It was a nice change of pace that this Hallmark romance was shot in Savannah, GA.

The chemistry works perfectly between the always-good Nikki Deloach as a top animator, and Michael Rady ,who was the beating heart of the film, as an overly-prissy administrator who'd lost his wife and was still holding onto his grief. The dog-sharing, the kids, the scenery in Savannah was all great. Way better than your typical Hallmark fayre !

I love all of Nikki Deloach films but this one is completely becoming one of my favorites. The chemistry between the two lead characters was fantastic. The dog was cute and the children were fantastic.

Both children want it and the parents wisely decide to keep it on trial one day to make the dog decide who he chooses.

The dog creates a beautiful friendship between the children and involves the parents in the most social activities.

How will the ending be in your opinion?

Un bel film sentimentale dove un cane coinvolge è affettuoso sia con un bambino e sia con una bambina.

Entrambi i bambini lo vogliono e con saggezza i genitori decidono di tenerlo un giorno a testa in prova per far decidere al cane chi sceglie.

Il cane fa nascere una bella amicizia tra i figli e coinvolgere i genitori i più attività sociali.

Il finale come sarà secondo voi?

I love Nikki deloach and all of her films but this one is my favorites. I loved the chemistry between the lead characters. The dog was too cute and the kids did a great job.
