DVD Review: Abner the Invisible Dog



About Movie:
When science nerd Chad Sheppard gets a chemistry set for his 13th birthday, little does he know
he’s in for a much bigger surprise. While experimenting with the kit, his best friend, Abner, a big,
furry sheepdog, suddenly starts talking before vanishing into thin air!

Chad already has enough problems fighting off two bullies who want to wreck his chances with
Sophie, the cute girl next door. Now, he has to hide an invisible, talking dog – who’s a bit of a
wise guy – from his parents and figure out how to get everything back to normal … All while
outwitting a pair of clumsy crooks who are determined to steal the top­secret formula  that gave
Abner his super­spy powers.

With his parents out of the house, Chad and his canine sidekick have to defeat the bad guys, get
the girl and save the day!


Our Thoughts:
When looking for a movie to watch at a school function, it can be hard to find one appropriate. So many times they look at ratings, and if they aren't rated G, you don't get to watch them. And that's a lot of kids movies anymore. I was so excited that this one was allowed to be seen at school!!!

A typical movie about a teenage kid being bullied, has his best friend, and dog to stand on his side and help him. That is however, after the big furry dog started talking and disappeared. Abner, the dog, got mixed up in a science experiment by his human, Chad. Things went wonky, and Abner is a wise cracking invisible talking dog!

Add in even more bad guys trying to get the formula, (stolen from the government) that made Abner invisible, Chad has his work cut out for him. He has to put everything back together, get the girl, defeat the bad guys, and stop his bullies, while his parents are away!

This is definitely a funny movie that your kids will enjoy!

Our Thoughts:
There are so many foods out there for babies, and toddlers now, that knowing which one to choose is difficult! With Beech-Nut, there isn't any guess work anymore. You get only the foods you want: natural, healthy, and no additives.

I was so happy to get the new products for tasting! I tried them myself before I gave them to my daughter. A lot of times what you buy for baby tastes nothing like what they say it is. I found that's not the case at all with Beech-Nut, it really is what they say it is. I love that, as a mom, I am buying real food.

Each of the four jars we received were delicious, according to my daughter! She specifically loved the beets, pear and pomegranate the best! I thought the Spinach, Green beans, and zucchini was a well rounded flavor. Each was unique and gave you something out of the ordinary with baby foods. You feel like you have options, where so many times you feel like you don't!

Beech-Nut has forty new flavors including foods like pomegranate, avocado, papaya and beets. I will definitely be purchasing some of the new flavors! The new line will be available in stores, including Wal-Mart, Kroger, Meijer and Publix, in spring 2014. The suggested retail price of a 4.25oz bottle is $1.09.
