“Lost in Puppydom: Rory Dylan Stephen’s Puppydom”: “ARE THERE ANY DOGS IN FILM I ADMIRE, PERHAPS EVEN MYSELF!”

ARE THERE ANY DOGS IN FILM I ADMIRE, PERHAPS EVEN MYSELF!

There can be no doubt Bob’s classic novel “Reggie the Egyptian Rescue Dog” adapted into two Walt Disney films of the same name is at the pinnacle of canine film perfection. I mean the film is a favorite of children and their parents throughout the world. Reggie and Dylan the Westie were best friends and their exploits are legendary. And who can forget Reggie the Egyptian Rescue Dog and Dylan the Westie with Nicole Kidman in “A Dog Who Saved My Life” especially the scene where Dylan and Reggie fight off a croc in the Northern Territories..a canine golden cinema treasure!

Forget “The Littlest Hobo” and “Rin Tin Tin” with those German Sheps. After Dylan and Bob were attacked by Layla the vicious neighbourhood Shep I hate those creatures! Puppy prejudice.

Lassie films are OK with me as after all she’s a Scot just like the origins of West Highland Terriers.

And Uggi the Jack Russell Terrier in “The Artist”. Not having any bias, I say Terriers RULE!!!

Oh……not sure if I should mention this but the heck with NDA’s. Bob is currently in Burbank at Disney Studios discussing another animated feature involving a certain West Highland Terrier puppy. I wonder who that puppy might be!!!
