Did anyone watch this last night?
I thought it was really good, i thought baseing it on a true story was great. I didn't realise what such an impact a dog could make to a boy with Autism. What did everyone else think??

my mum said it was brilliant, she loves things like that. I saw a little bit like when he was apolagising for kicking the dog which is really surprising as autisitc children dont know sorry, It was such a great impact on his life.

I didn't watch this but my mum did and she said it was fantastic, a real eye opener. My cousin has autism.

the impression i got was that it was a true story and i assume that the guy was the boy himself, it could have been an actor though im really not sure.

It was based on a true story but the boy wasn't play by the actual true story boy as it mentioned at the end that the boy was now 18 and had gone to college.
