I never saw it either, but since the dog had to have pooped in the house sometime I choose B. |

I have no idea what 'Old Yeller' is about. |

Faithful dog gets rabies and has to be shot…this is from the same guys that shot Bambi's Mom. Refused to see it. |
| John D Salt | 20 May 2012 9:51 a.m. PST |
Never seen it. I believe it is by the Disney organisation, so I shall make every effort never to see it. All the best, John. |

Based on the Newberry Award winning children's novel by Fred Gipson. So not exactly a Disney creation. |

No, but I yelled at the end of Old Crier.

Yep, as a matter of fact I think more of my dog then I do most people |

Never saw 'Old Yeller' but something I have noticed is I'm inclined to cry more easily over sentimental stuff than when I was young. Also, and I don't know if it's connected, but my nerve isn't as good. I used to be quite cool even in very dangerous situations but now while my head still says "Lets do this" my body says "Boss! Oh boss! Maybe we should think about it". |

Pretty sure I did, but that was more than 30 years ago in school elementary school. I doubt teachers could even show it today without parents getting upset about their little darlings being traumatized for life. Seems like we saw this and the animated Watership Down several times in elementary school, no wonder I am so messed up. Japan has their own horrific story for kids. It's about having to kills some elephants during WWII. Completely screwed up generations of traumatized children. Thinking about this reminded me to order a copy in English for my wife to use with here Japanese history students. Tempted to get one for my brother's kids for Christmas, but he would kill me. link link If elephants don't mess up the kids they later show animated films like Barefoot Gin (aftermath of Hiroshima) and Graves of the Fireflies (children and the fire bombing of Kobe). The antiwar effort in Japan made some very interesting choices that would get most American teachers fire for showing children. Jeff |

True, but Japan and US ideas of propriety are radically different to begin with. |

I'm with T MEIER on this though never as tough.
I preferred Big Red. |

1 Saw it at the movies. Have refused to watch it again for over 50 years. I have two rules about watching TV in my home. No Old Yeller and no J#%E! |

Like a baby at the book and the movie.
Did at Marley and me too |

They even have a dog food brand named after the character,but no-I'd switch channels before it got too heavy. |
| Klebert L Hall | 21 May 2012 7:48 a.m. PST |
Dogs are proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy Which is undoubtedly why they have such short lifespans.

Saw it on first release--cried like the Lotto player one digit short. Not only that, but I forced my family, dog, turtle, and two Jehovah's Witnesses we lured into the house, to be vaccinated. Still have a funny bump on my arm… Glad to see some of us can admit to human feelings. TVAG |

Nope. I cry at the end of "Brian's Song" and on payday when I endorse my check. |
| Dasher | 06 Jun 2012 9:52 p.m. PST |
Knowing how Old Yeller ends, I have avoided ever seeing it, and hope to do s until the day I die.
I cry enough over my own dogs. |
