Uhh read his title right, he's not understanding the theme, hence "I don't know what it is".

Its a screwed up story if you ask me.

Its about a boy who finds a dog I think, and names it Shiloh and the real owner takes the dog back. The owner was named Judd, and if the boy wants the dog back, he had to work for Judd. And the boy makes Judd sign a contract that if he works for him, he will get the dog. So Judd signs it, and after the boy does all the work, Judd refuses to give the boy the dog. I dont remember, but somehow the boy got the dog, and Judd gets him back, and as Judd is driving off, he stops, and lets the dog out, and the boy gets Shiloh.

I think thats how it went.

Uhh.. the theme is something about the stereotypical roles of males and females.
