Oh, Rebarka! This is soooo much better than the original. Two dew claws up!

It’s gorgeous, Stel!!

A lovely job.

And … sigh…… Mary Pupford.

That face …it’s …. it’s….um…. almost photo-realistic!

I know it was a long time ago, and styles have changed…..

But gosh….. wasn’t she beeootiful?

I read the book when I was in elementary school….

and a sequel or two besides, I believe.

But there was also Anne of Green Kennels… several books worth….

and of course, Puppyanna…

All featuring cheerful young girl pups who spread joy to everyone around them…. especially dour maiden aunts, grouchy old men, and stepmothers.

I have to admit, I sometimes mix up the stories.

And of course, there was also Heidoggi, and later, Silas Weimaraner…. in the same vein, but more rustic and memorable….

and perhaps better written, which doesn’t hurt.

Anyway, with a face like Mary Pupford, who couldn’t you charm?

Oh look!

A human studio made a movie too!

Trying to cash in on a beautiful face with sad eyes, I suppose…..

but look at that blonde curly stuff.

Hah! Trying to substitute for long silky basset ears.

Well it just doesn’t work.

I’m sure they had to dig deep into the studio archives for that one. No doubt this DVD is manufactured on demand.

Beautiful!!! love the pretty pursed lips!

I didn’t know enough about Mary Pupford, so I looked her up and was amazed! She had 248 credits listed in IMDb!!!! That’s a lot of Puppy Chow in her retirement account! And was married to Douglas Firbarks, to boot!

Nice poster today, Stel. What a great face!

A great tribute to a great Canadian puppy!

Really beautiful poster! Pupcraft Pictures makes the best movies.
