quite simply the finest comedy from either side of the Atlantic i have ever seen with a dog as a central character. it seems fashionable at the moment what with all the 'air bud' movies coming out year after year, but this is where it all started. Jim dale is simply comic genius as his usual hapless self, far better than his Dr Tinkle in the carry on movies , he's given loads more to do and shows off his talents in many memorable scenes, including the legendary one where he faints at the size of Digby's doggie bowl!!!! unbelievable. Not having seen this movie for some years , i recently got hold of a copy out of a supermarket bargain basket for an incredible price and it is the best money I've ever spent. I've loaned it out to all my friends and family and we all agree that it is a truly magical film for all ages and most definitely a must see for everyone who loves laughing at dogs.
