This movie really touched my heart. The friendship of a dog and its master depicted how deep the relation could be so that the lost of one of sides would cause a deep lost pain of the other's.
Leonhard Seppala never expected that the dog that his wife saved would be his real friend in the crisis time. He thought this dog was too small and weak to become a sled dog, but he was wrong.
Ever since this dog was small he showed that he was a smart dog. No matter where Seppala kept him, whether in a kennel or a room, he could always manage to escape.
Many times when Seppala was on the sled with other sled dogs, this dog would race from behind just to show he was able to do the sled. This dog showed his persistance to become a leader of the sled.
Finally Seppala gave him the chance to let him lead and this dog proved that he was really something. And that was why Seppala gave this unnamed dog TOGO.
Togo proved to be a good leader and strong. He even saved his master from danger.
When there was an epidemic in Nome,Alaska, they had to pick up serum from Nenana Alaska, over the distance of
1085 kms. Twenty one mushers were involved to cover the distance to deliver the serum but Seppala and Togo covered the most distance, which was 260 miles or 420 kms of freezing and dangerous round trip.
Togo saved his team and his master, Seppala when the ice cracked and they were going to drown soon. He swam in cold freezing water to reach the land and used all of his might to pull the rest of the team to shore.
This moment was really the climax of the movie that really moved the audiences' heart. And you will miss this beautiful of moment if you don't watch this movie yourself.
