Synopsis

My Dog Tulip is a bittersweet retrospective account of author J.R. Ackerley's 16–year relationship with his beautiful yet intolerable adopted German shepherd, Tulip. To Ackerley's surprise, Tulip turned out to be the love of his life, the "ideal friend" he had been searching for in vain for so many years.

“My Dog Tulip” is a look at J.R. Ackerley and his relationship of 16 years with his German shepherd, Tulip who was not only the love of his life but his best friend. The animated film is absolutely gorgeous to watch and here is a film for anyone who has ever loved a pet. I have never been into animation but this film had me under its spell from the moment it began.
Ackerley spent many years looking for the ideal friend and he found it in Tulip that he adopted when the dog was a year and a half old. Ackerley did not really want a dog but he took Tulip because no one else wanted her. Once he had the dog he found great affection. The film is based on a book of the same name by Ackerley and was adapted for the film by Paul and Sandra Fierlinger.
The film is narrated by Christopher Plummer and he becomes Ackerley and his sister’s voice is that of the late Lynn Redgrave to whom the film is dedicated. The film is heartwarming and a wonderful depiction of the closeness between a man and his dog.
Do not be fooled; just because this is an animated film it is not for children. The humor is very British and it deals with topics such as love and how a dog can make a mess and getting Tulip pregnant.
