Astronaut Puppy Animations

Space Bound is a Cute Dog Video with a Tragically Sweet Story

Film students Ellen Su and Kyle Moy collaborated to create Space Bound, a cute dog video about the unconditional love between a boy astronaut and his pet pooch.

After crashing out in space, the boy finds that he has a limited time left before his oxygen finally runs out, leaving him feeling depressed and gloomy. His puppy lifts his spirits by playing catch and going on a wondrous adventure through space, making the boy's last few moments extremely loveable and worthwhile.

A very touching film, it is incredible how much emotion such a short video can create, demonstrating the powerful love and attachment between pet owners and their companions. This cute dog video is a sweet tale for any animal-lover.
