Old Yeller - Shelter Dog?

Old Yeller was one of my favorite movies as I was growing up, and it remains so. That is a story of courage, selflessness, and triumph.

But I am writing this to make another point.

Spike was his real name. He was abandoned at a shelter. Who would believe that such a dog would star in "A dog of Flanders," appear in many of the "Lassie" series, and and as I said, "Old Yeller?"

Not too bad for a dog who was unwanted, eh?
