:16:01
I thought that was the general idea.
:16:05
Dogs die. They get sick.
:16:07
They run away, get hit by cars.
They're a heartbreak waiting to happen.
:16:12
He's not ready for that.
:16:14
He's frail, he's sensitive
and he can't handle it.
:16:19
How do you know what he can handle?
:16:23
You don't give him a chance.
:16:24
I know all about loss.
:16:26
Experienced more than my fair share.
:16:28
It's hard enough on an adult.
A boy shouldn't have to.
:16:33
So you're gonna
shelter him from life?
:16:38
For how long?
:16:42
He keeps the dog.
:16:44
For two weeks.
:16:45
If there's a problem,
I'll take it to the farm myself.
:16:48
Jack...
:16:50
...Will deserves this chance.
He needs it.
:16:56
Wait, l... .
:16:58
-I haven't agreed to that.
-I'm not asking.
:17:25
Hey, boy!
:17:27
What's the matter?
:17:29
You miss your mommy and daddy?
:17:32
Your brothers and sisters?
:17:39
I'll take care of you.
:17:41
Don't be scared.
:17:43
I've got you.
:17:47
I'm an only child...
:17:50
...and now you're an only dog.
:17:52
I met him on the day I turned 9.
:17:55
He was just a trembling ball of fur.
:17:59
Scared and shy as I was.
