The scientist soon discovers that Shepard also has eight other valuable friends, a pack of sled dogs he's worked with for years who have rescued him from a number of tight spots. As the three men explore a frozen mountain region, an unexpected accident coupled with a massive storm front forces them to fly to safety, leaving the dogs behind. Shepard is determined to rescue his canine friends, but he has to wait until the weather will allow him to travel back to the mountain. Now, the dogs must struggle against the elements to survive as they attempt to make their way back home.

Add a CommentI gave this movie 2 stars, not because it was a bad movie, but due to the fact that it was awful to watch. My 5 year old cried so much that we had to fast forward to the end of the movie so that she could see that some of the dogs ended up rescued. I was appallled that this is based on a true story, and that no one would save a bunch of dogs chained outside in the freezing cold. Although the real story is even more horrific.
Great movie for the whole family. It's amazing to think that this was a true story, considering what the dogs went through and how "Jerry" saved them. I really recommend it!!
awesome movie right from the start
This movie was pretty good and a little sad throw.
This is a good film. An example of how extradordinary dogs are. You will go through a range of emotions as you see what the dogs have to go through to survive. Antartica vs man and dog.What an adventure!
I swear, this is the most amaaaazing movie EVERR! I love it to deathh! It was soo cute and funny, and Paul Walker is just so WHOAH :D <3
I like this movie a lot. It is very touching. A must see for dog lovers.
This is a fantastic family movie and can be enjoyed by all age groups!
