- Hello, I'm John Cody Kim, and here's my 3rd year Calarts film!
Stanley the Pembroke Welsh Corgi is left behind in the break of an apocalypse.
All he wants to do is get back to his owner...
I think this year I really learned a lot!

Special thanks to my faculty, friends and family!
Also, you gatta check out other CalArts films!!

"Without my pet's, my house would be clean, my pockets would be full, but my heart would be empty"
Guineapig Girl this should’ve been my yearbook quote
@@misskeeko Right!
Same
yes pets are the best they gives us irrational love just because they matter to us and we take care of them and that's why i love my dachshund rocky and my cat nala i adopted her when she was a baby cat hiding at my car engine :) #petsarethebest
This just means that you didn't develop well as a human, humans should be able to fill your heart, but I guess dogs are easier for people like yourself.
Gotta stop cutting onions around my computer.
me too, damn those onions
ravuthpum the smell of the onions both of u are cutting its coming to me too
TT--TT
damn good onions, though.
ravuthpum and the ninjas chopping them.

This initially went from "oh they're escaping this abusive house" to, they're escaping something else entirely afterwards.
Abusive house?
Abusive where?
....Abusive?
I have no idea where you got that idea from but ok
fr! I thought they were running away from someone trying to hurt them and while that person went somewhere they took the chance to run away. Idk that’s what I first initially thought it was
The first time he dropped the shoe and picked it back up also when he fought the zombie for it back. That’s love and devotion, a true representation of animal loyalty, and apparently corgis can survive zombies which I can totally believe. The end is very touching
Underrated
Note that it was also zombie mom.
It just shows how dogs are actually man's best friend
Heh yeah I finaly find this video..and I think this is motivating in my way.

But most importantly...

I agree with you
forknight dances?
@@pleaseno1251 no just no
Deadstrike 915 yes
If Walking dead was just centered around a dog trying to survive the apocalypse i’d be perfectly fine with it
Many of us are probably NOT okay after watching something like that. It sounds like a massive tearjerker.
I think everyone would like it
We all would
Sadd
It would honestly be one of my favorite shows of that was the case
I love how in the most scariest parts they put in fun music that really makes me happy and it gives you hope
yes i love it too
True
True
He kept the shoe, not only to return it to his human, but also to keep his scent fresh in his mind. Smart little potato doggo. And truly the most steadfast of friends.
I WAS SO SCARED THE DOG WAS GONNA DIE
Totte Studio FUCKING HELL ME TOO THIS SHIT WAS AN EMOTIONAL ROLLER COASTER
I WAS JUST SCREAMING "STANLEY GET TO THE BOY DO IT STANLEY"

XDDDDD
My dog may get me killled
"#1 dog"
I absolutely loved this. I feel heartbroken for my dog that died, but i remember how he made my life with joy at fullest.
sorry about your loss. Doggo is waiting for you at the gates. Always with you in heart, mind and spirit.
I'm sorry bro my dog died on August 1st of this year. I had him since I was 4, and now I'm 15 he didn't get to see me turn 15. The only thing I hoped from him was for him to see me go to high school. And that awesome little guy stayed with me long enough to see me do it. Just know our good bois are waiting for us. My dog was a black and white chihuahua and his name was pickles and he loved to play ball. Just know our dogs are not in pain. All I ask for you is to have an amazing day 😊. DOGS RRRRRUUUULLLLEEEE!!!!!!!!
@@kentuckyfriedroadrunner-tc6qswhat a great words bro😢. Dogos rules!!!
I didn't know people would consider just leaving their dog like that.
Also woah having the mom zombified in the van was heavy.
I heard the grunting noises and thought the mom ate the kid
@@uav_jenkies260 yeah I thought the same for a second and then realized that couldn't possibly be the case. Having Stanley find a and be loyal to a zombie child would be heavy in an unusual way...but perhaps it might make for some interesting comedy?
Right? That part made me so sad. Thinking about her internal thoughts as she turned into a zombie and assumed the worst for her kid was so sad too.
@@PrettyH8Mach1n3There is already an animation like that, but I need to find it. I will let you know when I come across it.
@@REDARROW_A_PersonalNow you have at least two people waiting for the link, lol
I thought the dog was going to sacrifice himself at the end. But I'm glad it ended much better.
Except the kid is an orphan now.
I thought the dog would of gone in and seen the kid turned into a zombie
same .-.
Same here
"Dogs are not our whole life but they make us whole"
Me:crying so hard
3days later
Me:still crying while hugging my dog.
My dog:hooman stop your crack smellin and huggin me ;/
Your comment is three days old r u still crying?
None talks about the mom :,I
she became a zombie :(
Your dog: stop hugging meh ;-;
Your dog: *confused screaming*
DIDNT THINK MY COMMENT WOULD GET SO MUCC ATENTION THANKS [for real i was too lazy to turn my caps off]
The last scene where the dog finds his owner and gives him the “means to move forward” is beautiful and so touching.
Can’t believe a raindrop fell right under my eye indoors while I was watching this
I thought for sure the kid was going to be a zombie.
what are the odds
Me too
He does.. read the manga
Me too that would to sad
There's another short or comic with that premise but I can't remember the source, sorry.
Stanley wasn't a gud boi.
Stanley was the GUDDEST BOI!!!
he was the best boy
Shame of you shame
@@seanmarcmatillano4294 smh click read more
He was the hardest of so good boys
@@seanmarcmatillano4294 lol did you even press read more?
Thank you for giving Stanley a happy ending. ❤😭
Stanley: Was I a good boy?
No. You are the *best*
"Dogs are not our whole life but they make our lives whole."
-Roger Caras
I remembered this saying.
"A dog is part of your life, but you are a dog's whole life." But idk who's this saying came from. It justs make me wanna tear up. 😭😭😟
nice saying
Love it 😊
Delta9 well said 😌😌😌😔
well done
That’s a good dog right there if shit ever hit the fan my dogs go with me
I almost cried when the Stanley and the boy got back together! Clearly part of the top ten best anime reunions of all time.
I wanna know more to this story, though! I think this would be a great series. Maybe even an animated movie.
HE GOT A CHAMP VEST AND A 1# DOG HELMET MY HEART IS BURSTING HE’S SUCH A GOOD BOY
I was half expecting the boy to be a zombie
anyone's guess i think its a helmet not a bowl
same
Did his mom die?
@@yourmom-zx1fw yeah
anyone's guess same
I'm not crying my eyes are just leaking

We lost our dog a month ago an i happend to come across this vid.. it make me emotional and now im working with tears in my eyes. Really a nice representation about what dogs are for us and the bond that they make with us, loved it
I know the dog is cute and brave and all, but can we all get a F in the chat for that poor kid's mom who turned into a zombie?

DammitJohn! Where the hell is the rest of the story! We need more. Don't just leave us hanging like this. That kid is outside during a zombie apocalypse! Stanley's probably hungry. Where the hell is John Wick when we need him?
Imagine John wick and his dog in a zombie apocalypse
@@thap34nut66 There wouldn't even be a zombie apocalypse. John Wick is the King of the Headshot.
It isn’t really ment to be a story it’s ment to be giving out a message more then an actual story
Exactly who hugs their dog and abandons them? The zombies aren't the real monsters after all.
Some stories are better when less explained
I’m sure I saw this video around the time it came out when I was just a kid, and I already had my boy whose name was Stanley. When I saw this video for the first time and the boy so enthusiastically called out his name I cried, called over my Stanley, and told him he’s my #1 dog. I had to make the difficult decision to let my boy rest last year, and today this video came up again after so long of not seeing it. I am currently just sitting here with tears, remembering just how good of a boy my Stanley was.
So, please anyone with their pets around, give them a squeeze and tell them they’re #1 in your hearts, because you certainly are in theirs.
I love the dog and also how he can freaking parkour like a cat lol. Cool
Some people call it adrenaline but I call it...
~*panicked parkour*~
Bro he even looked like a damn corgi.
Zoe Stahl panikour
Renzy Lorenzo IM A CAT
:v
"Stanley!"
SOBBING
I'm not gonna lie if the stupid zombie apocalypse happens I will not leave my dogs even they are so heavy it doesn't matter if they are heavy atleast they will sirvive
Im the same way
Better train your dog to keep quiet then. A barking dog is a dinner bell.
@Anzu Wyliei not if the dog eats you first
No, your an idiot dogs will make too many cries therefore an hindrance. Best to leave it.
MY FAMILY FOSTERS DOGS AND THERE ARE AT LEAST TEN BUT I DONT CARE *TRY ME, ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE*

TH-cam: Hey, wanna cry?
(I love the animation btw, well done, now I will forever cry)
Shooketh Kat so this made u depressed huh m8?
Still, after all these years- my favorite animated short of all time. It's perfect, and I wouldn't change a thing.
They made it, right?
They go to a safe place?
archlorddestin Yes they did, they made it and they found other people, they are now a strong community. :')
Pluvio Yay!
archlorddestin Yes, as zombies.
A11ex Not cool ;_;

I actually thought they were just going to die, accepting their faith.
I watched this video a while back and never commented about how the ending with the hopeful music and their reunion really got to me. Crying all over again from the emotions
Same here for every single thing you said.
I’m happy this had a happen ending, I was so close to crying
im still crying :v
Lol what do you mean close?
Yes but it was sad about the mom though 😞
Oh god, you here? Xd
This short is thousands better than TWD series,
I demand a complete series about this couple!!
I like this animation but TWD is cool as hell
This animation is good, but there is no need to downtalk TWD
Jane r but there is
I use to like twb when it was building up to somithing at the prison but it is just the same thing over and over again after the prison was lost.
LOVE this one. I promised my dog to take him with me , if there's an earthquake, flood or zombie invasion.
keep that promise :)
The best animated dog I’ve seen in my entire existence seriously I’m surprised this didn’t get a sequel
Hey the creator needs to know his video is on Facebook with 3 million views and is prolly getting no credit as usually. Hopefully he or she or they see this.
facebook.com/ApocalypseToad/videos/1096856796998019/
Hello Aidan, thanks for letting me know. I really appreciate it!
I just came across that FB page as well. Typical content rippers that seem to give no credit to anything they take.
And also at this page... facebook.com/N1VEL/videos/635987299876159/
Nice work :D
Aidan Klwd that happens to my dad people stole his video
need this history become a series on AdultSwim
Let happy endings lie.
Unamused Woof I agree. This ending is perfect, it’s ambiguous but hopeful...which is pretty much the best you can get in a zombie apocalypse
TH-cam why you had to put this in my recommendation section and now I’m crying 😭
he attac
he protec
but most importantly...
survived for the owner
nice one
It's 2019-
And I'm now seeing this masterpiece!?!
I come back every few years for the feels
Same
I know!
Omg right?
The best way to know about awesome animations is Newgrounds. I saw this animation there when it premiered. Go to the site and support internet animation, you wont regret it!
1. That #1 Dog bowl would have to have been printed upside down for it to be legible
2. I had to go back and figure out that the zombie in the car was the mom, shit that's sad.
Where was car
i can only imagine the number of people disliking this, but youtube hides it
Dark Voyager 1:33
Bestest boye
Oh my god the zombie was the mum the car shit
Everytime i come here to see how much time has passed i cannot leave witgout watching the entire video
okay yes, this story is an absolute masterpiece, but you've been told that enough. I want to appreciate the actual animation. The reflection in the car and climbing up the pipe especially caught my attention
I read the title as "Breakfast Stanley". I must say I was extremely confused
And hungry
Olivia Hague are you a redditor?
Lmao me too
Jokingly, I would say it was ALMOST break stanley
Same lol
This is so wholesome 🥺
Is it?
i know that this animation is from 2014 (yes i read the whole descriptions) but i would like a series like this.
I came back to this video 5 years later. It made me cry. To think you can fall in love and create a strong bond. It hurts.
Why is nobody talking about how gorgeous and smooth the animation is? Especially for 2D? I love the design choice. Holy shit.
This is great. No, I take that back. This is amazing. I remember my dog. She was there to help me learn to walk, and she got to see me off to high school. It's a shame she had to leave the world. At least she made her mark.
I’m not going to lie, I saw this posted on Instagram and was bawling my eyes out. My dog looks exactly like Stanley.
Man I got finals in like ten minutes and I’m here watching a dog survive the zombie apocalypse to give a kid his shoe back. Perfection
"D ogs are not our whole life, but they make our life whole"
So true
In an apocalypse there are more than just hero’s. There are casualties.
Families torn apart, death and destruction. The inevitable end of our species.
And pets, without their owners they would become feral strays, living amongst the ruins, decay and debris of humanity.
This reminds us that whilst the sexy hero is fighting in badass action scenes or working in a chem lab, there are ordinary people.
People who will simply give up because they can’t cope with the sudden change.
Depressed people who already didn’t fit in with the old world have got nothing to lose when the new world asserts itself.
And dogs and cats, abandoned by their owners because they can’t be kept if their owners were to survive, unable to truly understand why they were abandoned. Why humans are acting weird and walking around like they smell of death.
If someone wanted an apocalypse simply because they wanted to “give it a go”, then they are forgetting they they won’t be the only ones trying to survive.
Or simply those that are left behind, like Stanley the Dog. And fight to remain ahead of the times: that Humanity should just give up
0:22 I know my dog would start chewing that up and forget about me
You are my best friend my dog!
*10 years later*
...NOOOOOOOOO MY DOG!!!💔
Shut up and respect
I didn't think this would make me cry. This made me cry.
I cried a little.
Rand Ly me too
This never fails to bring me to tears at the end. I love it, and I always will love it. Thank you.
Wow! I’m am completely speechless to this! That was amazing! OMG why is this now in my recommendations?! This cartoon was awesome! 😢🙂 Thank you 🙏 so much for this man!
so sad the boy lost his mom but not his dog that he loved the most
the dog risked his life the give the shoe back to the son
True.
I don't cry, until I read your comment :(
I mean, if the mom was smarter she would have brought the dog.
@@omgidkwhatimdoing9626 If I were in this situation, I would probably choose the son and leave the dog. Too many mouths to feed and distraction in a zombie apocalypse... And don't get me wrong, I love pets but sometimes they'res hard choices in this situation
I cried when Stanley found the boy 😭😭❤️❤️
“Dogs are not our whole life, buts make our lives whole.”
- Roger Caras
The boys infected mom was at 2:12, look back at the beginning and you'll see its her.
Aw this is so sweet I have a corgi too and he makes my life whole too😍❤️
Animal lovers will understand this. Dog lovers even more so. Right in the feels.
Hey, at least it ended on an upnote.
Years later, still hits
As someone who loves dogs but doesn't have one (yet) this made me cry
Pixar, Disney, DreamWorks..............one of y'all needs to make this now.
Unfortunately they don't make one about zombie apocalypse
It'd be cool if they did something like the first half of Wall-E and UP. A silent film. Those were both so Poignant...
This is so short but I cried do much. Great story telling :')
❤️😭 that was so sad! The end was so happy and sweet! There’s a home for every dog, but a zombie apocalypse is not a home for a dog...
Stanley isn't just a good boy. He's the BEST boy!
This should be a shoe commercial.
I agree
BA-DA-DAA-DAA-DAAA ZOMBIE APOCOLYPLSE SURVIVORS LOVE IT

Light up The Day With a Invasion.
XD
i hate to be *that* person but those shoes would seriously be a zombie beacon, especially at night. there's no sneaking around with those
There's no way you're gonna melee someone with those.
mata schmata come in handing in the dark though
true zat
Some kind of Zombies react more by smell and sound while practically blinded. Let's hope.
at lest he has shoes
This short video in 4 minutes was better than almost any modern zombie movie or tv show.
Poor Stanley is like "WHAT'S GOING ON?!"
Did this animation won some prize? Not so many animation can bring tears to people like this. I cry everytime I watch it :D. You did a pretty good job, thanks John. What programs did you use to make this beside hand drawing?
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed the film. The animation is actually drawn digitally on a cintiq. I used a TVpaint software for drawings and photoshop for backgrounds!
Paper Penguin Pic I've been eyeing the wacom cintiq for a while. How does it feel to be drawing on it? On regular paper the edge of your palm would be on the paper. On the cintiq, does it register the pressure of the edge of your palm, so you have to glide your hand in the air, or does it only register pressure from the accompanying pen?
NegativeNanase It can only regconize the pen pressure. But on some tablet, you can turn on the hand pressure (I didnt). On the beginning, it's a little weird and different from classic drawing but you will get use to it quickly. If you are planning to buy, I'm sure you will love it no matter what :) .
Dũm Dum Great! Thanks!
+Dũm Dum if you like that, check this out. I'm pretty sure it's by the same guy. vimeo.com/93052696
This is incredible!! Loved every minute of it :)
So that means you loved 4 minutes of it. Rest were 11 seconds.

Es hermoso😭😭😭
i dont know why this was in my recommended but i am glad it was
I always come back and watch this every few years and it holds up perfectly. TH-cam is really doing animation a disservice because wonderful stuff like this doesn't get enough shine theses days.
This made me cry because my dogs died recently and seeing him being with his dog made me tear up
I’m so sorry about your dogs :(
Left 4 dead but from the perspective of a dog
Swagons hahahahaha a dog can survive better than four humans with guns hahaha
😭OMG!!! I'M CRYING HARDER THEN I DID WATCHING MARLEY AND ME!!!
This is absolutely incredible- I loved this so much, Thank you for making my day
-also my name is actually Stanley ☕️
You are a good boi stanley
CORVO6ODST :v yes! Me good boi
Yay you survived a zombie apocalypse with the halp of...
SKECHERS LIGHT UP SHOES!!!!
Sansy boi
I know it's screwed up and all but was I the only one who was expecting a really unexpected grim ending at the end where they open the door and hundreds of zombies run in and maul them?
karpik I thought the same exact thing!!!
karpik me too. Could have been a plot twist
karpik I did and god this comment is 3 years old
karpik I did too
I thought they were gonna hug and die together
It is, quite frowned upon, that dogs such as Stanley that try surviving the zombie apocalypse, merely survive! Poor Stanley, if only he knew what was coming to him, to return to his beloved owner.
(It's a reference Stanley, don't you get those?)
You just made me cry and I love it😍😭
This is the most determined dog i've ever seen. I also just want to say IT SURVIVED A HORDE OF ZOMBIES.
When your mom's dead but its okay cuz you got ur dog back.
Lol
woo that went too far
@@junruiz8929 what do you mean!?
This is the only reason why i subscribed to this person
I love how this animation contains loss to hope
I watched this on Calart's TH-cam Channel 3 years ago. Gotta say this is by far the best animation posted in there. It never gets old...
