ENDAL, THE DOG OF THE MILLENIUM ON SILVER SCREEN

Touched after watching a TV documentary about Chief Petty Officer Allen Parton, producer Simon Brooks (White Noise) has acquired the rights to transform the story into a silver screen. The heartwarming story will tell about Parton, who after suffering head injuries in combat was assigned a charity-trained pedigree Labrador, Endal to help with his daily chores.

The real-life story of Endal can be amazingly been read here at Wikipedia by the way.

Brooks has asked Juliette Towhidi (Calendar Girls) to write a screenplay, inspired by the Labrador and based on Allen parton and his wife's co-authored book, Endal: How One Extraordinary Dog Brought A Family Back From The Brink. The filming will starts next year.

Brooks was quoted as "I was immediately attracted to this uplifting story of a man and his family who'd been dragged through hell before an extraordinary dog called Endal 'adopted' them and changed their lives forever." – EO

Talking about another canine dimension, earlier this year, the audience found some tears weeping in yet another heartwarming true story of Marley and how it changes the life of a Floridan columnist. Marley & Me, the movie as inspired by that true story and stars Jennifer Aniston and Owen Wilson did well in box office.
