This is the Brad Pitt movie where he and his dog are Special Forces veterans.  Their plane crashes in the Alaskan wilderness, and they have to hike out.

Sparky doesn’t usually watch movies, but there were enough dog, and other animal, noises to keep his interest.

The relationship between Brad Pitt and Odin was very touching.  Sparky and I are closer to Special Ed, then Special Forces, but we have our own kind of bond.

Sparky and I aren’t mushy and sentimental, but we needed to take a break from the movie.  After we got back to the movie, and the survival journey picked up, Sparky turned to me.  He wanted me to know that I could count on him in the wilderness, and he probably wouldn’t run off with the wolves.

Sparky had one more thing he needed to say.

Could he have the kielbasa from my sandwich?

No!

You can fuck right off. 

Watching how much Odin meant to Brad Pitt, reminded me how much Sparky means to me, so I gave him a slice of brisket along with his normal dinner.  I also gave him a couple of bites of kielbasa as I made my sandwich. 

I adore Sparky, but he is not eating my dinner.
