I could hardly cope with Born Free as a youngster, so I know this documentary would break me as an adult.

I did see Ring of Bright Water as a ten year old - I’m still in shock.

I read that and saw the trailer. Now I want to watch it (pay for yet another streaming service?). But as I watched that, i thought "isn't this how everyone feels about their pets?" Molly might have been chosen by us, but I know that over 16 yrs she changed me and saved me.
