Choices of the Heart (1983 TV Movie)

Still searching for the movie

[10/10 · 2 September 2023]

I saw this movie once and it made such an impression on me. I still search for it periodically on all the free stations like roku and freevee.

I would really like to see it again. Raised Catholic, the murder of nuns particularly hit home. As most pre-teen girls in Catholic school I contemplated becoming a nun, and that feeling continued through my adulthood.

I no longer think of going into the convent. But since my husband is gone and my children are grown I do think of some sort of Godly service.

The fact that I still think of this movie after 35+ yrs, speaks to the power behind this movie. I hope to see it again.

Lucky Dog (2013– )

Taking a rescue dog and seeing if it can be retrained into being a dog fit for a family.

[10/10 · 4 January 2014]

From "Homeless to a Home" is the hope of this show. To take a rejected dog from the streets and try to gain their trust and obedience seems a daunting task but with lots of love and patience almost anything is possible. Brandon McMillan has 5 days to get the dog ready for a new life. Starting with just trying to gain the love of the dog to getting it to be vulnerable, teaching the dog it doesn't need to hide like it used to, taking it to be around other people, animals and especially children. And finally for the biggest test of all. Will the dog accept the new family. Will the new family accept the new dog. It has to be a good fit. Dogs like people have their own personalities and you can't manipulate them. Success is never guaranteed but no matter what the outcome it touches the heart. In my opinion there is only one requirement for loving this show. You must love dogs.
