Little Dog Turpe

i thought the film "Little Dog Turpe" was very interesting.It looked like to me Tim Burton style short. In the way the characters looked and everything the fount of the houses, Its interesting all most befuddles me how this is a kids film but mite seemed all most childish whereas you had the happy ending and no part where to gruesome or to "grown-upish" if you will, It reminds me of fairy tales iv heard before i don't know something about it just fascinated me i cant explain it, if you have an opinion please tell me I'd like to hear it thanks!
