RIP to Buddy The Dog, who starred as the dog in the original Air Bud movie (He passed away at the age of 9, only a short time after the first movie came out...Very similar to other famous actors who pass away right before or right after their big time hit...We will never see the real Air Bud's full potential). The first one is good if you are a young kid but a giant slice of cheesiness is added when you get older and suddenly there are 5 sequels all related to different sports.
