Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.

The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.

I just discovered this cartoon again on You Tube (the Amazing Stories 1/2 hour version). I remember laughing so hard at this when I was 14 years old. I went to school the next day and discussed it with my friend who had watched it...we got in trouble in library for being too loud. We couldn't stop laughing about the "blaming it on the dog" part. Back then, fart jokes on TV were hard to come by...so this cartoon was a huge hit. I have always remembered The Family Dog as being one of the funniest cartoons I have ever seen. I searched for it again and amazingly found it! It did get some smiles out of me still, especially the Dad's flared nostrils and blaming it on the dog...about 20 some years later...still pretty funny, but not nearly as much. Maybe I'm jaded now with all the fart humor so readily available :) I think anyone (especially dog owners) can appreciate this cartoon. It was definitely ahead of it's time!

This is a short, 30 minute film about a family dog. I don't think it should be dissected and analyzed - otherwise, you'll totally miss the fun and laughs it was intended for. If you ignore the big names associated with this film like Stephen Spielberg, and just watch it when you're in the mood for something silly, which most of us do when watching cartoons/animation anyway, you will enjoy this film as much as I did. I grew up with small dogs in my household all my life, and can identify with the humor. There were many places of subtle humor as well, which I enjoyed very much. I consider myself a movie buff (with over 300 movies in my collection) and some you just can't take too seriously in order to enjoy. If you do, you may miss out on the little films like this to make you laugh.

In 1993 I was six years old, and I remember watching "Family Dog" with my dad and my best friend. It was the funniest show ever! I remember one in particular when they all go to the zoo, and the little girl gets stuck in a cage with the lions. "Happy bunny happy bunny at the zoo zoo zoo!" Haha. Of course, the animation was terrible and I WAS six years old, but we could not get enough of it when we were younger.But the show went off the air after only like fifteen episodes, if that many. Now that I'm older I realize that it must have sucked if it only stayed on for such a small amount of time, but I miss it nonetheless! They should put all the episodes on DVD or something. :'(

F.D. is funny. Compare Family Dog to Family Guy. F.D. has less swearing. All I heard F.D. say is "Oh my god"!F.G is swearing galore! But F.G is fuunny, too!When I saw the short "Family Dog" on "Amazing Stories", I couldn't stop laughing!!!!!!!!! I only saw the TV show 3 times!It's a good family show. Yeah, The animation sucks, but it's a good show, just like "south park". It's just read the title.
