The movie Plague Dogs was very depressing and just horrible. I cannot believe that this movie was even made, but it does show us that animal cruelty really does exist, and how experimenting on them really does fall under animal cruelty. In the beginning of the movie it showed a dog named Rowf in water nearly drowning, and eventually he did. They were experimenting on him to show the effect it has on dogs being rescued. To me this is sad to know that people really do experiments like this to animals. They nearly let them die, and then will save them. This is a crucial thing to do, and now Rowf is fearful of water. This does prove that when bad things happen it does not go away.
Snitter is the other dog that escapes with Rowf from the lab. They are actually free for the first time since they have been in this place. All Snitter is wanting is a master, he used to have one and he loved and missed that. He tries to explain to Rowf how great it is, and that is what they need to find. During their journey, they are running from the people who will take them back to the lab, and their life will be over again. They ran into the ocean, and these men were shooting at them, but they missed everytime. They just kept swimming and swimming, and Rowf was scared at first but realized that he needed to do this or he would be back where he escaped from. Snitter was getting weaker and weaker but Rowf kept pushing him to keep swimming, and telling him that they are almost there.
I believe that Rowf was used to surviving the water after the experiment he went through from the beginning of the movie. He would not give up. It does not show it in the movie, but it says it in the book that both dogs did survive, and they both got a master. They were free again, definitley a better ending than a beginning. This movie made me have more love and respect for animals. They to do have feelings, and it shows it in this movie. I do not agree with the experiments that are being done on animals, it needs to stop.
