What got me is when the ER surgeon takes Jerry away, and Dooley starts trying to put on the tough guy act to hide his emotions, but his concern, hurt, and devastation couldn't be more clear.
Empathy is what gets me in movies, and is why scenes like this will choke me up every time I watch it.

I was not trying to hold back my tears. I was watching this alone, and they were flowing freely, with no one but me to notice. Of course, now the whole Internet knows ... or at least the visitors to this post.
Scenes like that are inevitable in dog movies, but they get me (almost) every time.

jesus !!!!!!!
I hear you. The hospital scene really summed it up. Here was his partner who had his back and was a faithful companion whom he grew close to lying in a room dying after being shot by an utter lowlife. He was trying to rationalize the circumstances in the hospital on his code and being hard nosed. But realizing how good Jerry had been to him and was (in many ways) so innocent and child like... he couldnt hold it together. His girlfriend knew him so well and knew how painful it had to be for him to break down like that as she just held him as he sobbed.
