My husband and I recently watched the documentary Mine on Netflix. It is about the victims of hurricane Katrina that were forced to leave their pets behind. It focused on the rescue efforts of the animals and how the Humane Society handled their recoveries. Unfortunately all the chaos and the outrageous number of rescued animals were too overwhelming for the local animal shelters so animals were shipped to shelters in other states. The documentary focuses on four specific cases where the animal’s owners have trouble locating their pets once they recover from the hurricane. It is heart wrenching to watch for animal lovers. In one case a Jack Russell terrier is adopted from a shelter that is a “Katrina animal”. The original owner makes an attempt to get his dog back but the “new” owners feel it is their dog now and don't want to return him…totally reminiscent of what Beth is experiencing with Sam. Sam wants to go back with his adopted dad. Now the family has to consider a “shared custody” situation in order to keep the son they love (and have been missing for nine years) happy!
