How cute! |

| was anyone able to find out the dog's name (that played the sheepy?) I tried a web search and couldn't find it. I was surprised he wasn't listed in the credits. |
| I didn't watch the whole thing, so I don't know. Did you check IMDB.com? |
| I checked and found nothing. Thats odd. |
| After I posted, I checked too. The give the name of the animal handler, but not the star!!!! Where's the union when you need it! |

How cute! Easy on the "real" sheepdog thing!!!!! |
| Aw...I didn't mean to hurt anyone's feelings. I should have said, he was like Pirate and not clean, well groomed sheepdog! |
| I believe someone posted it on the forum before.
I think his name was Sam and he was defintely a rescue from a pound.  |
I was at work, and a couple patients had it on in their rooms. I was lurking in the hall....... 
I wish I would have remembered to set the DVR before I left home.  |
I watched the original and stayed tuned for the Shaggy DA. Figured it was appropriate viewing while I groomed the pups. Miss Ellie was fascinated with the Sheepie in the original. It's the first time I've seen her watch TV.  |
| Yup, his name was Sam and he was a pound dog

Will the real Sam please stand up...Lillibrad Sammy's Shadow...voted top movie animal star of 1959...his parents were:Sire- Ch Norval Pride King and Dam-Ch Lillibrad Lindy Lou, CDX. By the way, Sammy's brother was Ch Lillibrad Prince Charming. I read the oddest things sometimes.  I don't think he ever saw the pound. If you have "The Complete Old English Sheepdog" by John Mandeville you can see several pictures of him and his parents...there's even a picture of him with Roy Disney and Bill Koehler his trainer after the award. |

| Ch Norval Pride King is in my dogs pedigrees |
